Been there done that got the Tee-Shirt. Its so easy for everyone sitting in their chairs at home in Country X,Y,Z (That includes the United States) to be arm chair president and general. How quickly the international community forgets the atrocities of the late 80s. Oh america has no proof of WMDs. Let me refute that right now. Would anyone like to come with me to the Center for Disease Control and the UN Commitee for infectious diseases, and take a look at the Thousands of bodies of Kurds that were Nerve Gased by Saddam hussein? We have a few frozen still, desperately trying to find out how to repair the genetic damage. The children those people who survived are having, have genetic deformaties that make their lives unfit to live. So despite the international news media's big horny line about no WMDs ever being in Iraq, I ask you, what better evidence than 1000's of bodies being swept up with large equipment since there is no other way? The suffering of those people may never end, as the genetic defects resulting from the nerve gas exposure carry from generation to generation. His attacks will be responsible for the misery of people 100 years from now.

Its really easy to sit back thinking, well I don't like the president because he talks with a texas accent so he must be stupid or, the americans are a bunch of dirty imperialist pigs who lie to further their economic gain. Am I saying this war is a perfect virteous venture? Absolutely not, show me one thing in history that was ever perfect. However, I can tell you, that those remaining nerve gas shells will never ever be used on my sons or daughters and they won't be used on you or your family either. So remember, before you decide to throw stones and spit at us and call us dishonorable pigs, bastards, and other unique phrases I have heard, that I put my life on the line every day so that you are able to have that opinion without having to worry about someone detonating a nerve gas shell in your neighborhood. If you disagree fine, just remember, dissent against policies of a nation, and degrading its people, and it's troops are a different story entirely.

I want to go home, more than any of you want me to, but when we make a pledge to the people of Iraq and tell them, No more do you have to worry about being hung from a ceiling fan and beaten with barbed wire. We wont wire your testicles to batteries and torture you, and your lives will have whatever meaning that you decide to give them, I see that as a good thing. It is the job of the powerful to protect those who cannot protect themselves. That is why I fight in iraq and at home. My government is human as any other and some motives are not honest, but I know that good is being done, and when all the squabbling by the news media and the politicians from each country is done, I still sit in a barrack commanding my men to do the job we swore to do for a people not our own, because we know that strength should be used to allow others to become strong.
