Bring our Men and Women home from Iraq!!


How many men and women must die in this war? We (Americans) have sons, daughters, wives, husbands, fathers and mothers who have been committed to fight a war. Not only do Americans have a stake in this war but there are other countries that are involved. How many countries are unknown to me but I know that there are several allies that are there investing blood, sweat, tears and lots of money into this effort. My question to you is this. Is this turning into another Vietnam? I am starting to feel as if YES this is starting to turn into another political fiasco. No, I am not the type of person that is going to blame our men and women who are serving their country. However, I do feel that our government has made its statement, whatever that is and now it is time for us to come home and let the Iraqi's figure it out. I am not sure what IT is other than perhaps how to get along with one another and not be a host to teorrorist organizations who need a place of refuge or a place to train killers who will go all across the globe to slaughter innocents.

September 11, 2001 was a tragic and horrible event in the history of the world. Over 3000 men and women lost their lives in the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center. I understand that the US of A needed to respond in such a way to exact a penalty upon that person or people who committed this attrocity againgst humanity on our own soil. I think that we have given the terrorists of the world something to think about. If you kill our people on our own soil we will hunt you down like a rabid dog and we will kill you. Should we be killing innocent men, women and children at the same time we are hunting down those that are responsible? I guess that some folks would say that innocent lives being taken during war is just a casulty of war. I do not necessarily buy that mentality folks. How is it we have the technology that we have at our disposal yet we can not find one man? Why is it we have not found this Bin Laden character? I wonder if there are CNN reporters out there that could not find him? LOL Of course we can find him if we really want to. We have satellite technology that can take pictures of your dogs nose hair but we can not find one man who is known all over the world. Hogwash people, how stupid do they think we are anyway?

Lets surgically erase the problems we have in the middle east and then lets bring our troops and hardware home so that they can get back to the business of defending our soil and get back to their families where they belong. Amen ??
