If the government says so

Your government has funded a study of Gulf War Syndrome. In this study they have said that there is no Gulf War Syndrome. Here is a sample of the findings-----
U.S. and foreign veterans of the Gulf War do suffer from an array of very real problems, according to the Veterans Administration-sponsored report released Tuesday.
Yet there is no one complex of symptoms to suggest those veterans — nearly 30 percent of all those who served — suffered or still suffer from a single identifiable syndrome.----
Those two statements seem to contradict eachother. The first says they suffer from very real problems, and the second says nearly 30% of all who served in the Gulf War are not suffering from a single syndrom.
So i guess the syndrom was made up. Just as the depleted uranium that caused most of the "very real problems" the soldiers are still dealing with today is make believe too. You dont have to be an educated person to add 1+1 and get the correct answer. Its just common sense. Anyone who tells you different is obviously full of shit. The same goes for this "study". The govt. brought about this study, they funded it..and who does this finding benefit? Yep, easy as 1+1..it benefits the government. The way it works is like this, the soldiers come back with symptoms, they get paid disability money for these symptoms as well as free medical treatment from the VA hospital. The VA is of course federally funded as is the treatment and benefits paid to the soldiers. So when the govt. decides to conduct a study done by the VA it wants "positive" results. The results are as i stated, that Gulf War syndrome does not exist. Now they no longer have to pay the soldiers medical benefits or give them treatment for this "mystery syndrome." Saving the govt. millions of dollars a year. I think its a crime and a shame that prez Bush Sr. sent the soldiers to the Gulf War to liberate Kuwait, get oil rich allies, etc. and now prez Bush jr. is cutting the benefits and medical treatements of those same American soldiers by having this bogus study. You know the phrase, "if it looks like a duck and sounds like a duck..." Well this looks and smells like bullshit. So it probably is.
