A story from an American soldier in Iraq.

And the severe punishment he is going to get.

I don’t know anything about war nor Iraq, and what he says might or might not be true – but the fact that this made a news and lots of people are reading it and spreading (I contribute a little here) – the military might have known better if they needed to shut this guy’s mouth up.

The fact that we can still read his essay freely gives us a hope for the future.
