120 War Vets Commit Suicide Each Week

The military refuses to come clean, insisting the high rates are due to "personal problems," not experience in combat.

What they discovered is that in 2005 alone -- and remember, this is just in 45 states -- there were at least 6,256 veteran suicides, 120 every week for a year and an average of 17 every day.

There are questions, though, about whom that language is supposed to influence: the American public, the Iraqi public or the insurgents themselves? There's also the issue of whether loaded language obscures the distinction between combatants and bystanders.
