Watada said he was a war supporter when he signed up in 2003 (after we'd taken Baghdad) and was giving Bush the benefit of the doubt on the WMDs. But,
Over the past year, his feeling changed as he read up on the war and became convinced that there was "intentional manipulation of intelligence" by the Bush administration.We can only imagine his reading list-- Counterpunch? Commondreams? Daily Kos? Huffpo? New York Times?
Look, the kid deserves praise for signing up during a war. And, there's nothing wrong with reading up on what you're about to get into.
