I grieve for one of my wife’s closest friends who lost her son in Iraq. For what? It was a noble cause at the time, but the usurper has thrown it all away. I am sick at what this bastard has done to the parents and loved ones of all the men and women who gave their lives for Iraqi freedom.
The war presently is not the same. Saddam is gone. That was what the war was about.
The current war is been building since 1918 or so when the artificial nation of Iraq was established by the British. There re lots of very old scores to be settled. That effort is now underway and visible.
It is not true your son died in vain. Saddam is gone and not a threat
It was idiotic from its moment of conception.
The enemy is in Riyadh and Islamabad.

This is all I keep thinking of. I agreed after much study that it was right to go into Iraq. I regret thinking it and I regret we did it, if we couldn’t get the job done and keep those people from dying in vain.
One must focus on those individuals and how they died in honor and service from their hearts, minds, and bodies, in good faith, thinking there was still that banner of freedom waving. If Francis Scott Key were writing those words today, the answer to our national anthem would be in the negative.
