No need to wonder why this is happening - look to bush - who has forced them into Iraq - forced them to stay - deprived them of laptops - or connection with the outside world - is it any wonder - they are committing suicide and inflicting hurt of the Iraqi detainees - I do not condone the abuse - but this is what they have been pushed into!!! I feel great compassion for them and their families!!!
