It seems the resentment is growing but slowly. The 9-11 attacks have indeed changed people's mind but for the worse. We wanted to kill the enemies. We wanted to avenge for 3000 deaths.
I have read many articles and many seem to tell most joined the army after 911 because they had lost a friend or family's member. Even Kerry himself said in recent interview on NYT he wanted to go fight the terrorists.
The tragic consequense is that Americans failed to see through the burning smokes what Bush's intentions were. Bush and Cheney were able to tap into the anger felt by many to launch an illegal war. And still Americans have not waken up yet, may still believe Iraq war is justified after 9-11.
If the soldiers accounts are correct, we are commiting war crimes in Iraq but who would dare to prosecute us ? We scream bloody murders when the towers fell on 9-11 but the Iraqis can't ?
Lets hope that Americans will soon wake up before casting their votes on Nov 2.
