OUR VETERANS HAVE SPOKEN--II

Arlington, Va.

While I haven't always agreed with The Nation, I have long valued its writing, and in fact was a subscriber while serving in Iraq. This makes it all the more disappointing that the lengthy interviews I gave to Laila Al-Arian for "The Other War" [July 30/Aug. 6] resulted in my quotes being taken out of context. It reflects poorly on me personally and makes me question whether Al-Arian and Chris Hedges are guilty of poor analysis or of using my quotes to their own ends.
