PHOENIX - The brother of an NFL player who was killed in Afghanistan after quitting the team to join the U.S. Army Rangers has spoken out.

Kevin Tillman, a former Army Ranger who served in Iraq and Afghanistan with his older brother, Pat Tillman, has remained silent since his brother's death in 2004. But this week, he wrote a scathing indictment of the war in Iraq, the Bush administration and American apathy.

"Somehow, the more soldiers that die, the more legitimate the illegal invasion becomes," Kevin wrote on Truthdig.com, which purchased his work.

The brothers, both Arizona State University graduates, joined the Army in response to the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. They served together as Rangers with the 2nd Battalion of the 75th Ranger Regiment.

Pat Tillman, who played defensive back for the Arizona Cardinals, was killed by friendly fire near the Pakistan-Afghanistan border in April 2004. The Defense Department is investigating allegations of a cover-up, including failure by the U.S. Army to tell Tillman's family for several weeks that he had been killed by gunfire from his fellow Army Rangers, not by enemy fire as they initially were told.

'Nobody is accountable'
Kevin Tillman has not spoken publicly about the war or his brother's death since his discharge from the Army. But in Truthdig.com, Kevin wrote openly about the war and America's response to it.

"Somehow, the same incompetent, narcissistic, virtueless, vacuous, malicious criminals are still in charge of this country. Somehow, this is tolerated. Somehow, nobody is accountable for this."

After playing for the ASU Sun Devils, Pat Tillman was drafted by the Arizona Cardinals in 1998. He played with the team for four years.

On Sept. 12, 2001, he gave an interview in which he talked about how "stupid" football seemed relative to world events.

"At times like this, you stop and think about not only how good we have it but what kind of system we live under," he said. "My great-grandfather was at Pearl Harbor. And a lot of my family has gone and fought in wars. And I really haven't done a ... thing as far as laying myself on the line like that."

Pat was on the verge of signing another contract with the Cardinals in the spring of 2002 when he decided to join the Army instead.

The Tillmans were initially sent to Iraq as part of Operation Iraqi Freedom. In 2003, the brothers returned to the U.S. for training to become Army Rangers. After that, they were sent to Afghanistan.

Because he speaks his mind he hates America??? He served and fought for his country and lost his brother. What the fuck have you done?????

The Army played his death up like he was a hero, charging and rallying his men up a hill. Dying/fighting for his country. Awarded silver-star. Lots of press.

Turns out the Army lied to his parents and everyone else. He was shot in the back "friendly-fire"

Nothing is more "American" than exercising your right to dissent. It is the foundation upon which our country is built.
I may (or may not) agree with what was said but I'm glad he has the freedodm to say it.

Mr Pheer · 10-21-2006, 08:12 PM

I cant see anywhere that he hates his country. What he hates is the bullshit coverup of his brother's death and the invasion of Iraq. How would you feel if your brother was accidentaly killed by friendly forces and then the truth was hidden from you and your family?

What he did was heroic. Another group was being attacked and he turned around and went up a hill to fight them off. In fact, he pushed another young guy he had befriended on his tour out of the way of fire. The friendly fire was a mistake, and I can't say that we wouldn't do the same thing in that position. They had the guys who were with him tell the story and it just sounds like an impossible situation.
