Iraq War Wife Calls Chickenhawk Kristol A Liar

A couple days ago neo-con William Kristol was on C-Span when a wife of a soldier phoned in. Her story was heart-wrenching, but the sound of her voice spoke volumes beyond that. Her husband is serving in Iraq and sees Iraqis wave to them and then plant IEDs later on. She implores people like Kristol to end this war, wishing that if he wants war so badly, then the nation should institute a draft so that her family and others like them can heal from all the time being apart.

During the whole time, Kristol is looking down at the desk, trying to avoid the reality of what he is hearing. When the caller hangs up, he pathetically tries to relate to this poor woman by saying a friend's son had just gotten back from Iraq. How the hell does solve anything? Kristol just wants America to be the world's police force and he doesn't care about the consequences to average folks. There is no sympathy from this man, only empty words and blind pursuit of a failed global policy. Read the transcript and see the video at Think Progress.
