US soldier kills five fellow troops in Iraq

[EPower]

A US soldier opened fire on fellow troops at one of the main US bases in Baghdad killing five, the US military said.

I guess they are starting to crack over there lets see what happens when your boys come home

The Americans engaging in friendly fire, surely not.

During the first gulf war Americans killed more British troops than the Iraqis did.

The Sargent ( I think) went to this hospital that assists soldiers with war related mental distress... he was declined help and they took his gun away... later he came back, armed and mentally unstable he shot and killed his fellow soldier...
HE WAS ASKING FOR MENTAL HELP!!!! Wasn't that a sign that something was outta whack!?!?!
The people that turn him away should be arrested and fed to the dogs, one just cannot turn people that are asking for help at a hospital's door away.. specially the armed ones.
I usually am pretty immune to the material I hear from overseas, but this was just one of the worst mistakes I have heard (aside of the biggest mistake that is the war), who knows what else goes on that get's filtered from us.
