    Soldier kills self in shame of being duped into Iraq war

    Veteran was sickened as his unit battled Iraqis who could only fight back with sticks and stones

    AN IRAQ veteran who returned from the desert a broken man has killed himself.

    Private Peter Mahoney went to war believing Saddam Hussein was threatening world peace with weapons of mass destruction.

    But the loving father-of-four came home disillusioned and convinced he was the victim of a political smokescreen.

    Peter, 45, told his family how his unit came up against Iraqi troops armed only with sticks and stones....

                        If you don't want to go to a war you may not agree with, here is the solution: DON'T JOIN THE FUCKING MILITARY!!!!

                        DUPED? Whatever.

                            Yes wow, 900 dead IN A FUCKING WAR! They must have all kinds of ammo to kill 900 people. Hell, I'll even bet it was WMD's!

                                The point was it's pretty hard to kill over 900 American soldiers with sticks. Have you ever killed someone with a stick? It's hard to do. Especially if they are shooting at you with machine guns and out of helicopters.

                                  Just because some of the soldiers only carried sticks and rocks doesn't mean that others don't have guns. Nowhere did it say that there were no guns in Iraq, everyone sees this on TV for themselves. I don't find it too far fetched that some Iraqi fighters are unarmed.

                                  And on that note, I wouldn't care if they were carrying the most advanced weaponry available. The US invaded their country and they are doing the same thing anybody would do in fighting for their homeland. If all of these people really hated Saddams guts as much as most Americans seem to then they should be happy we are there and we wouldn't have to worry about our soldiers being beat down by stick carrying Iraqis.

                                    They got REALLY big sticks!


                                    But someone said it best, if you join the military you join up knowing you may be called on to kill whoever you are told to kill without question. I know you joined during peace, I know you joined to get out of the hood or trailor park, i know they got you when you were fresh out of high school, but by now ALL of us know the deal, no excuses. I have yet to come across someone who was not currently in command or was not a higher up in the military when enrolled who has told me to go into the military. All I ever hear is do not do it, do not go, they will use you and throw you away. How come these people can complain about how popular media makes them do drugs, rape women and steal but ALL the movies out there that show you that war is hell and that you have to kill without reguard for the enemy do not talk them out of joining...... selective influince I suppose

                                      The guy is 45 the oldest you can be to enter the military is 32. He is a private. This means he has to have been in for a period of time and busted down in rank. Everyone gets above private it's automatic. Unless he is a fuck up and stupid. So the big picture of being used is out of his scope of reason. This guy knowing he is a fuck up killed himself.

                                      Lets keep the troops out of your politics, and just focus on the idiots elected.

                                      You taint the fact the troops are doing what they are ordered to, and fight with no regard to their lives. If you want things to cange vote for who you want. Don't bring the troops into this.

                                      Yes I am a Vet I fought in Iraq, Afgan, Kosovo, Bosnia, Honduras ECT. I did my time and not that proud of some of it. I would do it again and follow orders.

                                          Exactly. This guy is a father of four, yet rather than kill those who sent him to war, he would rather kill himself. Idiotic.

                                                do you honestly think you could get close enough to kill the man responsible?

                                                          You can't get close to the figurehead, but you can get a good shot at those who pull the strings in Washington. Granted, I don't condone murder, although a kidnapping followed by a manifesto would be more than justified.

                                                                DUPED? Whatever.

                                                                I'm glad not everyone has this attitude or we'd be speaking german or japanese or russian right now."

                                                                I think you are forgetting, our warriors are all volunteers. This means they may be called to go to a war they don't agree with. If you are thinking about joining the military, a competent person would understand this, and choose not to join if this was something he/she was strongly against.

                                                                Luckily, the majority of our soldiers understand the mission, and do the job they are called upon with honor. My point is, if you don't want to be a warrior, don't sign up.

                                                                    About 3,800 have received their orders for duty in Iraq and Afghanistan so far. Associated Press Radio has learned approximately 350 reservists have filed appeals.

                                                                    The head of the Army's Human Resource Command, Col. Debra Cook, said medical and family problems are the most common reasons. No requests for delays or exemptions have been granted yet.

                                                                    Jon from Illinois is appealing his deployment. His wife is serving in Iraq right now and he doesn't know what to do with the kids. Jon is a Gulf War vet who thought the IRR was a "safe haven" where members were only called up as a last resort. He said, "to me, Iraq is not a last resort situation."

                                                                      DUPED? Whatever.

                                                                      I'm glad not everyone has this attitude or we'd be speaking german or japanese or russian right now."

                                                                      I think you are forgetting, our warriors are all volunteers. This means they may be called to go to a war they don't agree with. If you are thinking about joining the military, a competent person would understand this, and choose not to join if this was something he/she was strongly against.

                                                                      Luckily, the majority of our soldiers understand the mission, and do the job they are called upon with honor. My point is, if you don't want to be a warrior, don't sign up.

                                                                      The head of the Army's Human Resource Command, Col. Debra Cook, said medical and family problems are the most common reasons. No requests for delays or exemptions have been granted yet.

                                                                      Jon from Illinois is appealing his deployment. His wife is serving in Iraq right now and he doesn't know what to do with the kids. Jon is a Gulf War vet who thought the IRR was a "safe haven" where members were only called up as a last resort. He said, "to me, Iraq is not a last resort situation."

I just don't understand it, why would he kill himself? Why not go down in a 'blaze of glory' at least while he is trying to take out the President, the man he believed had wronged him greatly. He obviously did not care about dieing anyway.

It is important to read a contract before you join the military. I'm sure some don't want to serve in Iraq, but they all signed up to be in the military and that can include any location the goverment decides.

                                                                                The Individual Ready Reserve category is distinct from regular Army Reserve because the troops do not perform any military service during the year yet are still eligible to be called to active duty.

                                                                                I think the guys in this category are aware that they are in this category. They know this because they got into the Military, not by accident, but because they VOLUNTEERED. Facts are troublesome things.

                                                                                      this is NOT the only suicide in this war.

                                                                                      suicides are as much a part of war as bullets and maimed humans.

                                                                                      Want an Android App for your tube, membership, or free site?
