BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- When troops from the Georgia National Guard raided a Baghdad home in early December, they had no idea that their mission in Iraq would take a different turn.
As the young parents of an infant girl nervously watched the soldiers search their modest home, the baby's unflinching grandmother thrust the little girl at the Americans, showing them the purple pouch protruding from her back.
Little Noor, barely three months old, was born with spina bifida, a birth defect in which the spinal column fails to completely close. Iraqi doctors had told her parents she would live only 45 days.
But she was tenaciously clinging to life, and the soldiers in the home -- many of them fathers themselves -- were moved.

Our military gives us yet another reason to be proud!
Monsters, terrorizing the kids and children like that, and the women. /s
This must have been what JFK(erry) was referring to.
It's a grab the tissue box story. Prayers for the little baby, she looks so much like one of mine.Thanks for posting this.
All right, who missed the memo on CNN.

Now, you know what marauding terrorists and child-frighteners John Kerry has told us our soldiers are.
PLEASE do not mention John Kerry near meal time!
Me too.
VERY rare to hear a positve story come from CNN...
How about sending this article to him?!
The baby's father and grandmother will be accompanying her to Atlanta. According to the AJC, the grandmother's daughters bought her a new black purse for her long journey. Such a positive military story, can't believe its in the AJC and on CNN.
wonderful story!
prayers for those awesome soldiers and
little noor and her entire family!
So when U.S. troops raid this family's home, the grandmother's first thought is that if she shows them the sick baby, they'll help. I think this says volumes about ordinary Iraqis' REAL perceptions of the U.S. troops and their intentions.
I did read something in there about visits in the middle of the night. Yup, must be that terrorizing thing JFK was talking about.
Bump to your post!
PLEASE do not mention him AT ALL!!!!!

Obviously, everybody who's important at CNN has the holidays off. Some assistant's assistant is making the calls on story lines.
No doubt someone will be looking for work by Martin Luther King Day.
