Emotional Rape of Soldiers by Chris Hedges


 This is you now. And now no one can reach you. You are death’s angel. You are numb and cold. But, I suspect, this will not last. I covered war for a long time. I know, even if you do not, the next chapter of your life. I know what happens when you leave the embrace of the military, when you are no longer a cog in these factories of death. I know the hell you are about to enter. This is you now. And now no one can reach you. You are death’s angel.  Chris Hedges
