My son went to Afghaistan as a Marine and came back as a casualty.

Before he went, he had to go thru “sensitivity training”.” Out troops have to “learn” how to “understand” the Muslims and their “religion of peace”. They have to fight a “nice war” so nobody gets hurt.

He literally came back in pieces and spent 14 months in the hospital and is learning to walk again. In addition he blames himself for the death of two of his brothers who were with him.

It makes me so angerery;we send them over to enemy territory , dont’t let them defend themselves, prosecute them if someone gets hurt and our government acts like they don’t exist.

When I ask my son about things over there, he says “mom, they hate us.”

I told him that in my mind he is not to blame for his brothers deaths, nor really is the enemy, since I would do the same things they do to someone that I would view as an invading force. I blame our political “leaders” who have put us all in this position and removed the military’s ability to actually do what they are supposed to do and apologize and act scandalized when our troops react with the training we give them.

Having been a stepdad was the closest I came to having kids, so I can only try to imagine the torment you must experience     :-(

Please tell him that this man and many others here wish him and your family the very best in healing and solace.

Hold tight to knowing that millions out here join in your righteous outrage at the travesty foisted upon your son and all the other families betrayed by the cowardly appeasement of the current evil cabal.

Your post made me cry on this Mother ‘s day. I pray for healing for you and your son. I thank him for his brave sacrifice. I’m praying that the treasonous traitors in our military and political ‘leadership’ will be called to account, and justice will be done to them for the despicable way they have treated our soldiers.
