He and his family deserve this. And I'm sure there will be alot more. Did you see him this morning on FNC? He looked really nice. And I loved what he said.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

This man and his actions are commendable.

[Mister Baredog]

Great story. Don't forget the movie rights.

[vigilante2]

Kudos

Mohammed wants to visit America

I'm sure we all hope that Mohammed and his family visit America. He's going to find more friends then he can count!

[ItisaReligionofPeace]

I didn't see him on t.v. Please give those of us who didn't the scoop!

[thoughtomator]

That's one Mohammed even a Jew can like. Bring him to the USA, he can sit next to PFC Lynch in the victory parade!

[2Jedismom]

His daughter will certainly go to college here, you watch.

[crobnson]

But of course, we American's are just evil-doers. Over there to steal Iraq and kill the people.

[cyborg]

The democrats and other liberals look like they're sucking lemons over this story.

[crobnson]

Oh my. You didn't see it? I missed the very beginning but I did catch the end. He asked if he could say one more thing, then he went on to give the Arab world hell. Saying that they need to stop this anti-war bullshit (my words). That they need to look at it from the Iraqi people's perspective. And regarding the civilians that are being killed, he said that the regime has killed Muslems every single day. It was great!

[wontbackdown]

I saw that interview. It was a former Iraqi soldier during the Gulf War who escaped to Turkey and ended up in the United States where he became a citizen. He now want to join the Marines. He was not the man who saved Jessica.

[albee]

I would like to make a contribution to this fund. Does anyone have a mailing address?

[crobnson]

Oops. There was something that the anchor said that gave me the impression that it was him.

[crobnson]

I guess I would start with the website and send him an email from there. http://www.gymstogo.com/

[Mears]

I'm afraid I disagree with the starting of a fund for this brave man.Mr Larkin has a right to give his money to anyone,as do we.

My only problem is with the whole over the top publicity with this rescue. It has only caught the eye of the media and Hollywood because she is a cute little female.

There will be many heroes coming out ot this war,military and civilian alike,and are we going to collect for them all? I doubt it;most acts of heroism won't even make the news.

A wonderful thing took place last week,but let's keep in proper perspective.

Not all heros are military. This is an exceptional offer of a true patriot

[hayseed]

I agree that there are hundreds of faceless heros, but this was the 1st POW rescue since WWII. It would still be a big deal if she wasn't a prom queen.
