I think that they're upset 'cause the author "dissed" not just Left-Wing "journalists" and peaceniks, but "flag-waving" pro-war types. They don't understand, apparently, that you can hate war, and still believe that the War on Terror has to be prosecuted.

From the article, he quotes his son:
"In a natural state a human will kill, and kill not always for necessity, but for convenience as well. The only way that I know I am still me is that I hate that fact; I hate it more than anything I have ever known."
Sounds like the son is rather anti-war to me. Kill for convenience?? He'd best not let his superiors hear that attitude expressed. Besides, military training and discipline is supposed to move a person away from their 'natural state'.

Also form the article:

Frank Schaeffer is co-author of "AWOL: The Unexcused Absence of America's Upper Classes from the Military and How it Hurts Our Country."
Nope, absolutely no agenda there.
