The Repugs always link together the following: "Against the war then you are against the troops.". I love you guys and gals and wish for your safe return. You are put in a bad situation, in an unpopular war. The longer you are there, the more this type of stuff ratchets up the conflict with ordinary citizens. Now they may respond and take it out on you (sure you already know this)! Be safe!
