Can you please post the whole segment of this?
Saw the entire 60 Minutes episode this last Sunday. This segment was very sad. People come back from Iraq and Afghanistan with severe brain injuries from bomb blasts. They sliced up some brains from dead soldiers to examine them. Though the research doctor didn't explain why the damage is only in the parts of the brain where the two different brain matters meet. But that is what they see. Or he wrongly explained it! Because the "sonic wave" or bomb blast goes through the entire brain! Not just where those two matters meet. Anyway, it was very disappointing when they said that the soldier was "delusional" because he thought that people were "tracking him" by his cell phone. And that the board on his non-profit corporation to help soldiers coming back home actually worked for the CIA. That is not delusional! Because it is very well known that people are tracked by their cell phones! And it didn't take a leak from some ex-CIA employee to know that! It is now general knowledge. And since the CIA has a very long history of being involved with the military and people coming back from war for their "research" it is very possible that his board either works for or obeys the directions of the CIA. So again, he was not being delusional. And since the two people who said he was "delusional" were his brother and sister, and also the interviewer Scott Pelly of 60 Minutes, it is quite possible that they too may actually be working for the CIA too!! You just never know how many reporters and TV personalities actually work for the CIA. And help cover up what really happens. Such as this soldier who committed suicide. So they say! Which he actually may have done. But you can not be sure. And if we look at the things that the CIA does, and listen to what ex-CIA say about their own organization, we might agree with them that they are a "state sponsored terrorist organization". For what does dropping bombs and starting wars have to do with "intelligence"?
He's in the arms of the Angels now. God bless him, we owe him so much.
Please post this entire segment. As an Army medic, I treated so many during my time in Iraq and am preparing my Soldiers for the conflicts potentially in our near future
AT LEAST THEY'RE LEARNING MORE THAT CAN HELP OTHERS IN THE FUTURE!!
