I had enough of conservative pundits attacking

for her #PTSD tweet. These pics of me and my chaplain were taken in the front lines of Kandahar, Afghanistan and it shows there are children in the battlefield. Don’t tell me they don’t have PTSD. This was her childhood.

What you said was one of the most empathetic, insightful things anyone has ever said IMHO.

her comment was not discussions of war make her remember her experiences - see says discussions about war cause her to be stricken with PTSD. Sorry her comments sad!

People aren't attacking her for having PTSD, they are calling her out for not actually having it, as confirmed by her family that also pointed out they were never near a conflict zone or explosion.

When these pundits insist that only soldiers can experience ptsd, they are dehumanizing the people whose lives they directly affected while at war, people like Ilhan

These kids MUST be traumatized. I'm traumatized just thinking of what they endure.
