Yea! We finally have the number the media have all been waiting to give us.......drum roll please.......2,000 dead American soldiers!
Now we can breathe again.
That is a number to remember. It's hard to believe America sacrificed hundreds of thousands of our servicemen's lives on the altar of freedom sixty five years ago. A lot of the men who served then are still alive now. I wonder what they would have to say if asked about the sacrifice made now by these 2,000 to save so many?
Not worth it?
I doubt you'd hear that answer.
I have a friend who is a Blackhawk helicopter pilot in Iraq. He and many other Iraq war veterans tell me the same thing; the truth is not getting out.
If you watch TV and get most of your news from there, then it is a dark picture that comes out of Iraq. Do some searching and find out what goes on in Iraq besides roadside bombings.
How about some other numbers?
How many new schools are opening in Iraq? Here is a hint.
How many hospitals or other projects? Here is another hint.
I hope that those of you reading this will ask yourself this;
Is there ANYTHING, besides protecting the lives of your family members, that you would consider important enough to die for? To kill for?
If you answered no, then go sit with the sheep and wait to be slaughtered.
