Sympathy on US Soldiers in Iraq? Hell no!

A few days ago I received an email containing pictures of US Soldiers in Iraq, it had a note saying, "Please pass the pictures on. Sometimes in our > everyday lives we tend to > forget what's going on elsewhere in the world and > that the brave men and > women of the service are just like you and I. They > have family and friends > back home who love them very much and are praying > for their safe return. > > > PLEASE KEEP THIS GOING EVEN IF YOU HAVE PASSED IT ON > BEFORE > > When you receive this, please stop for a moment and > say a prayer for the > people in Afghanistan, Kuwait, Iraq, and all around > the world. There is > nothing attached....... This can be very > powerful......Just send this to > people in your address book. Do not stop the wheel, > please..." Well, think again. It contains pictures of US soldiers striking his fingers on a kitty, US Soldiers having good time with local people, etc. I don't care. So I replied back to the sender. And here's my response. "Tsk.. Please tell me why these photos don't make news. I just can't make anything of it. All I saw was a helpless country got blown away by a superpower country. How's that sounds? Are all these photos supposed to make us sympathize for soldiers who put their life on the edge for a lousy decision made by a lousy president? True, they left their beloved ones, their family. True, they fight for their country (or is it?). But, who takes all the advantages? Women and children of Iraqi were killed. How about these soldiers' family? They are in well condition. Sit comfortably at home having been voted again for a lousy president. Their family must've not loved these soldiers. Had they loved them, they would've vote the other guy who'd probably withdraw all the soldiers home. Give them a chance to meet their family. But, no.. they didn't. Give me an explanation on that one. The world was a better place before US invaded Iraq. It's simple logic. Never squeeze a balloon. It seems vulnerable. But, if you squeeze too hard, it will blow. Terrorist won't exist if you don't create one. US is terrorist factory. Think about it." [ 5 comments ] Posted at 12:00 PM |
