Another anti-war, anti-military headline

I know, I know, it's a shockah!

Soldiers strained by six years at war are deserting their posts at the highest rate since 1980, with the number of Army deserters this year showing an 80 percent increase since the United States invaded Iraq in 2003.

While the totals are still far lower than they were during the Vietnam War, when the draft was in effect, they show a steady increase over the past four years and a 42 percent jump since last year.

OMFG! UP 80%! A 42% JUMP! WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DOOOOOOOOOO?!?!?!?!?!

You want to know what percentage of soliders are deserting? Less than 1%.

According to the Army, about nine in every 1,000 soldiers deserted in fiscal year 2007, which ended Sept. 30, compared to nearly seven per 1,000 a year earlier. Overall, 4,698 soldiers deserted this year, compared to 3,301 last year.

But I guess that "LESS THAN 1% OF SOLDIERS DESERT THE ARMY" doesn't make a good, solid anti-war headline, does it?

Worthless goat-humping, anti-American idiots of the MSM.
