Another Landmark On This Day
My SCBA blogging buddy Laer Pierce reminds us what Iraq was like under Sadaam, and gives us his thoughts on the 3-year-old conflict in:
The war is unpopular, but I’m having trouble remembering a popular war. I can’t recall songs or street chants celebrating just how great it is to be fighting and losing some of our best men and women.
But war isn’t about popularity; it’s about protection. In this war, as unpopular as it may be, only the U.S. and its allies are the protectors. Every other faction is trying to kill and destroy in order to achieve power. We are losing our brave soldiers in order to give power away, so a country, a region, can be at peace.
Read it all — Thanks Laer — I heartily agree!
