5,500 Down 130,000 To Go

   By Emelius at 9:35 AM

The latest figures are a telling story as to the mindset of soldiers that are currently invading Iraq. Forces are deserting rather than die for a war they do not believe in.


"I didn’t want, you know, 'Died deluded in Iraq' over my gravestone," says Felushko. "If I'd gone, personally, because of the things that I believed, it would have felt wrong. Because I saw it as wrong, if I died there or killed somebody there, that would have been more wrong."

He told Pelley it wasn't fighting that bothered him. In fact, he says he started basic training just weeks after al Qaeda attacked New York and Washington –- and he was prepared to get even for Sept. 11 in Afghanistan.
