To send our troops in to eradicate terrorists and then interfere
in the mission is just unforgivable. To meddle with tactically
engaged troops is tantamount to their murder.
A terrorist is a target, as is anyone with him/her. Anyone
dancing on a burning American truck is a target. Anyone shooting
from a mosk / church / temple is a target. The world will be
better off without them and the faster folks learn this the
better and safer the world will be.

Let them know that the Marines are going to coat their bullets with

Mecca if your contaminated by swine!
They want to behead our people, then the gloves should come off!
They want to come in from who-knows-where ..... fine and dandy. But
let them know, there will be no virgins where they're going. They

where they belong.
I'm praying the Iraqi people have a shot at democracy and a taste
of the freedoms it will bring to them. Most of them are not the bad
guys here. Everyone that craves freedom has a right to live free
and without fear .... and I mean everyone. They've got a great
opportunity here, let's hope they seize it. And let us hope
they soon wake up and learn to help us help them.

Hello Everyone, I am taking time to ask you all for your help.
First off, I'd like to say that this is not a political message.
I'm not concerned about domestic politics right now. We have
much bigger things to deal with, and we need your help.
It seems that despite the tremendous and heroic efforts of the
men and women serving here in Iraq to bring much needed peace
and stability to this region, we are losing the war of perception
with the media and American people. Our enemy has learned that
the key to defeating the mighty American military is by swaying
public opinion at home and abroad. We are a people that cherish
the democratic system of government and therefore hold the will
of the people in the highest regard. We love to criticize ourselves
almost to an endless degree, because we care what others think.
Our enemies see this as a weakness and are trying to exploit it.
When we ask ourselves questions like, "Why do they hate us?" or
"What did we do wrong?" we are playing into our enemies' hands.
Our natural tendency to question ourselves is being used against
us to undermine our effort to do good in the world. How far would
we have gotten if after the surprise attacks on December 7, 1941
at Pearl Harbor, we would have asked, "Why do the Japanese hate
us so much?" or "How can we change ourselves so that they won't
do that again?" Here in Iraq the enemy is trying very hard to
portray our efforts as failing and fruitless. They kill innocents
and desecrate their bodies in hopes that the people back home
will lose the will to fight for liberty. They are betting on our
perceived weakness as a thoughtful, considerate people.
Unfortunately our media only serves to further their cause.
In an industry that feeds on ratings and bad news, a failure in
Iraq would be a goldmine. When our so-called "trusted" American
media takes a quote from an Iraqi doctor as the gospel truth over
that of the men and women that are daily fighting to protect the
right to freedom of press, you know something is wrong. That
doctor claimed that out of 600 Iraqis, that were casualties of
the fighting, the vast majority of them were women, children and
the elderly. This is totally absurd. In the history of man, no
one has spent more time and effort, often to the detriment of our
own mission, to be more discriminate in our targeting of the enemy
than the American military. The Marines and Soldiers serving in
Iraq have gone through extensive training in order to limit the
amount of innocent casualties and collateral damage.
Yet, despite all of this, our media consistently sides with those
who openly lie and directly challenge the honor of our brave heroes
fighting for liberty and peace. What we have to remember is that
peace is not defined as an absence of war. It is the presence of
liberty, stability, and prosperity. In the face of the horrendous
tyranny of the former Iraqi regime, the only way true peace was
able to come to this region was through force. That is what the
American Revolution was all about. Have we forgotten? Freedom is
not free and "peace" without principle is not peace. The peace
that so-called "peace advocates" support can only be brought to
Iraq through the military. And we are doing it, if only the world
will let us! If the American people believe we are failing, even
if we are not, then we will ultimately fail.
That is why I am asking for your support. Become a voice of truth
in your community. Wherever you are fight the lies of the enemy.
Don't buy into the pessimism and apathy that says, "It's hopeless,"
"They hate us too much," "That part of the world is just too messed
up," "It's our fault anyway," "We're to blame," and so forth. Whether
you're in middle school, working at a 9-5 job, retired, or a
stay-at-home mom you can make a huge difference!
There is nothing more powerful than the truth. So, when you watch
the news and see doomsday predictions and spiteful opinions on our
efforts over here, you can refute them by knowing that we are doing
a tremendous amount of good. Spread the word. No one is poised to
make such an amazing contribution to the everyday lives of Iraqis
and the rest of the Arab world than the American Armed Forces. By
making this a place where liberty can finally grow, we are making
the whole world safer. Your efforts at home are directly tied to
our success.
You are the soldiers at home fighting the war of perception. So
I'm asking you as a fellow fighting man: Do your duty.
Stop the attempts of the enemy wherever you are. You are a mighty
force for good, because truth is on your side. Together we will
win this fight and ensure a better world for the future.
