Once Upon a Time...: When Honor Is No Longer Possible: A Nation Beyond Forgiveness

Once Upon a Time...: When Honor Is No Longer Possible: A Nation Beyond Forgiveness: "When Honor Is No Longer Possible: A Nation Beyond Forgiveness
Some stories are almost impossible to contemplate. This is one of them.

In June, Col. Ted Westhusing was found dead near the Baghdad airport. His death was most likely a suicide, a single gunshot wound to the head. His wife, who probably understood her husband better than anyone else, had no trouble identifying the cause:
In the military report, the unidentified colonel told investigators that he had turned to Michelle, Westhusing's wife, and asked what happened.

She answered:

'Iraq.'"

Read the entire story. It is disturbing.
