Seems to me that the public statements back at the very start of the war were that we will not come in flying our flags cos we are liberators and not occupiers. I remember lots of posts back then about people not being allowed to fly the flag and about having them taken down when it went against that order. So nothing has really changed since then, so why all the fuss.
Some people it seems are capable of accepting orders as orders and some people have trouble doing that. If you look at the issue as being all about the flag and only about the flag then you will get a lot of people caught up in emotion, but I look at the problem as a failure to obey orders. By writing this letter and trying to sway public perceptions these people are bypassing the chain of command. I think disciplinary action is in order.
