One U.S. veteran of wars in Iraq and Afghanistan attempts suicide every 80 minutes, according to new study.

In a staggering indictment on the lack of mental health programmes in the U.S. military, the report reveals 1,868 veterans made suicide attempts in 2009 alone.

Many veterans face dealing with post-traumatic stress disorder, high employment and a loss of military camaraderie after returning from tours.

VC - very disappointing to see a man with so much thinking and tanking to be off topic young man.
American cost has been quite unbelievable financially and of course emotionally.

This is just tip of the ice berg. Once all troops go back home and get discharged from the military they will go nuts once they find themselves in a broken economy. Those among them trained to kill will go on rampage on American streets. Those depressed will commit suicide or will become drug junkies. And the rest as was the case with Vietnam will be homeless people living on back alleys. This is the American history.

Well, that is a problem for the Americans to solve, isn't it? They will take care of it too.

Why should anyone else be worried about it?

Yes longbrained - you are so right. With so much unemployment and people fighting over food tokens and drugs etc - it is indeed terrible. Do youthink we can expect anarchy in the USA - Should we prepare and warn any friends we have over their?

Well said brother.

But i think that U.S government will reply us saying that pakistanis are terrorizing these people that is why they are killing them self.

Already people over there know these things. Since 2006 when the economic anarchy started a large amount of capital was moved by Pakistanis in US from there to Pakistan causing a big surge in Pakistan property prices which is still continuing. If people are ready to take out their money from US and safe keep it in a developing country like US, then you know how things are there really. Markets never lie.

I got a young brother in Jersey city - i better let him know. So the property market price increase in Pakistan is down to these American scoundrels. They are getting everywhere. Bloody naughty boys. We need to put our foot down and stop these nutters in ruining our markets!!

because due to their shortfall and excessive expenditure and sticking their zionist (extra long) noses in affairs that they have no business in has resulted in ALL of us being concerned about who they will lash out against next. We all have to bare the brunt of their world negligence.

An what of the fun the yanks are having?? don't you think that's also gotten too far out of hand? As Gov. Jesse Ventura put it: Americans are so egoistically possessed by their own might that they have no idea what the world thinks of them. The American nation is indeed great, and many good people live in the US, but a great percentage have been consumed their their own megalomaniac.

That is indeed going to be the demise of America, a self inflicted slow painful death.
