war is a force that drives us to despair

And in related news, in 2007, an average of five US troops attempted suicide each day.

According to the Army's own accounting, there were 2,100 attempted suicides by soldiers, compared with 350 in 2002, the year before the invasion of Iraq.

Please note that the "low" figure represents nearly one suicide attempt every single day.
