The symptoms often continue back home, playing a key role in broken marriages, suicides and psychiatric breakdowns. The mental trauma has become so common that the Pentagon may expand the list of "qualifying wounds" for a Purple Heart...
...through its upcoming court case. "Even if you don't agree with a court verdict, you should still be able to respect its legality. But the establishment is so busy trying to stave off what it sees as the imminent danger of political Islam, it isn't calculating the longer-term damage to our soul...
