"Indymedia Presents" turns to the plight of injured soldiers in a new piece by Arianne Garden Vasquez and Lambert Rochfort, "Disposable Heroes," which looks at the movement to "fund the wounded, not the war." Many an American soldier has felt the inexpressible sense of betrayal when they realize the bitter truth to the saying "used once, then thrown away." If all those yellow ribbon folks really cared about the soldiers they pretend to support, they'd force the government to take care of the fallen.
