Hey, it's official, Gulf War Illness is real.

Wow, really? So we the public (who has been telling you assholes in government and military this for a loooooong time) are right once again. What's going to be next, you'll actually report the suicide rate for soldiers returning from Iraq is up?

I just love how it isn't official until sooooooooo much evidence has been collected that only a moronic douche bag would argue against it. 175,000 soliders. It took 175,000 soldiers to convince the Research Advisory Committee on Gulf War Veterans' Illnesses that this shit was real. I guess 174,000 just wasn't enough. People have been seeking help and fighting the govornment for years, I hope this finally gives them the help they need in order to move on.

But isn't that just like our country? Thanks for the service! Sorry about the nightmares, cold sweats, crazy thoughts, and physical pain you've indured, but that's your problem, not ours.
What? What's that? 175,000, you say? Well, then we might just possibly have an issue. Maybe. We'll spend a few more years looking into it.

Assholes.
