This article is all good and well, just very LATE!!! By the time Clinton took his oath of office in 1992, all the facts were known--veterans were sick, and dying, by the thousands. Yet military leaders--who knew the most, especially about troop exposure to sarin gas after we bombed Saddam's weapons depot at Khamisayeh--were under strict gag order. And rather than treating the injured veterans, they were told their problems were in their heads and prescribed huge doses of Prozac . Yet the military MONITORED their health, keeping careful tabs on their symptoms, as one does when lab rats are exposed to toxins to see what might happen. A national disgrace!

Obviously this topic enrages me; even the above "review" is a rant! I wrote extensively about the topic TEN YEARS AGO!!! Clinton did NOTHING!! BUSH II has done nothing!! For more see here: http://www.all-natural.com/riley.html
