I have a strong feeling that you are easily taken in. Any of you donate this person money? He sounds like he has a very polished speech to beg for funds that more than likely line his own pocket. He hits all the right buttons - a real combat veteran from Iraq might have one button, perhaps two, but this guy hits them all and that is what makes him very unbelievable. He lost me when he claimed all the apartments had been flattened by artillery or bombing - rather doubt that to be true. Rather doubt that vets are dying because no one will send them money either. He is just playing on your heart strings.
The Marine who made the claims during Winter Soldier positively was a liar - he claimed to have seen something in 2003 that actually happened in part in 1991 - he claimed a DU-tipped Hellfire missile hit a tank crossing the border - Hellfire missiles are not DU-tipped - no missile, no bomb has any DU in them - anyone who claims otherwise is lying and after your bucks. A Hellfire missile did hit a tank crossing the border in 1991 and that tank's on-board DU penetrator rounds began to cook off causing a minor amount of DU contamination. No one was killed; no one was sickened and the Marine (in looking for this Vermont "vet's" name, I found another imposter who made it big in political campaigns and YouTube -
