Gen. Zinni: Unpatriotic Not to Ask Questions About War

HeadlineMay 28, 2004

Four-star general Anthony Zinni has publicly defended his patriotism, days after appearing on 60 Minutes lashing out at President Bush’s war in Iraq. He said “We’ve lost 799 kids and another 4,500 are injured and seriously maimed. We’ve spent $200 billion so far. Where are we for all that? Some people are calling me unpatriotic for saying these things. I think it’s unpatriotic not to ask these questions.”
