I agree that it's too early to say how it will all play out.
And from the soldiers' perspective, you're absolutely right. I was thinking
more from the point of view of fallout and perceptions....
Some serious doo-doo is coming down the tubes, I'd say.

What's frightening is that the US Forces haven't even been there a
proper year yet.

So they aren't shellshocked.

They aren't jaded.

They aren't cracking up from being away from home too long.

They have none of the excuses or psychological factors that you may say
would contribute to heinous actions by a soldier during Vietnam for
years.
It's a completely different situation, and really not comparable at such
an early stage in the game in Iraq.
