[Peace-discuss] Adam Kokesh discusses rising military suicide rates on Russia Today

[E. Wayne Johnson]

Iraq war veteran Adam Kokesh says the reason for the wave of suicides is 
the lack of confidence in leadership and low morale.

/"What we have now in Iraq and Afghanistan are undeclared wars where we 
are occupying countries and the mission is unclear. Service members are 
facing all the stresses of normal combat -- without a single cause 
behind it or sense of rightness of what they are doing,"/ Kokesh told RT.

He added that with no end of the war in sight, there are also complains 
about the ways the troops are being supplied -- so the servicemen cannot 
even be confident about their equipment.
