Thats not to say he is not right because, he is...It's just a shame they could not figure this out before they ran off to fight.

Might it be that they wanted to fight the people responsible for the atrocities committed on September 11, but then found their country in a far more costly war that was completely unrelated? Might it be that the very consititution they swore to defend has been violated by their Commander-in-Chief and his administration?
I'm pretty sure they signed up to be soldiers in defense of freedom and democracy, not agents of a regime that tortures suspects in secret prisons. I don't think their government's suspension of habaes corpus was something they had in mind when they enlisted.
