i'm not completely dismissing the soldiers for blame for the situation, but it's not entirely their fault either, it was a messed up situation, handled poorly, they make no mention of what happened to the car that rear ended him?

why blame the soldiers exclusively, bush is the one who's responsible...but it's hard to hate the man whose sending billions of dollars into their country, and easier to hate those who are simply doing a job.
