"Today, I'd like to speak directly to the people across the broader Middle East: My country desires peace. Extremists in your midst spread propaganda claiming that the West is engaged in a war against Islam. This propaganda is false, and its purpose is to confuse you and justify acts of terror. We respect Islam, but we will protect our people from those who pervert Islam to sow death and destruction. Our goal is to help you build a more tolerant and hopeful society that honors people of all faiths and promote the peace."

She woman rocks!

"Blog of War" co-author Eric Egland takes on CNN
CNN ^ | September 19, 2006 | Maj. Eric and Ania Egland

My friend Maj. Eric Egland is a contributing author to Blog of War: Front Line Dispatches from Iraq and Afghanistan, a newly-released anthology of stories from military members and their families published by Simon & Shuster. Eric did tours in both countries.
He and his wife Ania were on CNN twice last week talking about the book and about how media coverage of Iraq and Afghanistan bears little resemblance to reality on the ground. They did a terrific job making their case. I suspect we'll be hearing more from Eric in the future...
