Todo el mundo repite como loro, incluido Obama (que ya se siente presidente), aquello de que aumentó la tasa de suicidios entre los veteranos de guerra en EEUU.

Lo que no dicen es que la tasa de suicidios de los veteranos es más baja que la de grupos de civiles demográficamente comparables:

No one needs to be reminded that suicide is a serious matter, whether among soldiers or civilians. But the media have managed to create the impression that it is military service overseas which is the cause of suicides among American troops, when civilians of the same ages and other demographic characteristics are committing suicide at an even higher rate at home.
