Thanks for posting this. It’s a story that needs to be told.

That’s amusing. Can’t find any action. The neighborhood boy, who grew up to become a Navy Doc, is over there now and he says there is a marked drop in injured and wounded since he arrived.

We all need to keep praying.

Ironic.

The start of the hymn Yon quotes is, “Softly and tenderly, JESUS is calling, calling for you and for me....”

Do you think that is what this man preached, above, over, and through all? Like Paul (Colossians 1:28)?

I have to admit to heightened emotion upon reading this article. Thanks to Michael Yon for all the good work.

And all the RATS in Congress can do is pass the AlQaeda Rescue Act of 2007. Pelosi and her ilk is beyond disgusting.

Muslims in church pews imploring Christians to come back to Iraq: Ann Coulter would be proud.

This is absolutely fabulous and couldn’t come at a better time while the Democraps are busy voting to cut off funding for our Troops who are making this all possible. Is this a dream? I just sent his site to my address book buddies who care as I do.

I bet it was. Even catholocism is undergoing a renewal much like the ones you have seen in virtually all the Protestant denominations. Further, when you are on the front line with evil face-to-face, you don't have time for anything but the basic gospel.

Who knows, but I look forward to the time when we can travel there and see for ourselves.

I can’t believe that person receiving communion was in Dora...when my battalion first moved in there in JUL, people were terrified to leave their homes. The IEDs were huge, Al Qaeda owned that place. We had dozens wounded and about a half-dozen Strykers destroyed in the first week. Three Soldiers were killed in one IED strike, God rest their souls. Hopefully, it all actually was worth it. It was probably the most exhausting 2 months of my life, but it may have been worth it.

Thank you and your buddies and your fallen soldiers' families for your tireless efforts and sacrifices. A new day is dawning in Iraq.

I like seeing the Iraqi women without veils and scarves. I like seeing Christian worship in Iraq.

This is a very persecuted community in Iraq. Good thing our soldiers went.
