Well, much to my (pleasant) surprise, I received a lot of comments on this post.
I'd like to refer anyone that bothers to visit my corner of the blogosphere to ITM (Iraq The Model).
I've gotten some interesting and thought provoking feedback from some of their patrons.
I would like to take the time to share with everyone a particular comment by one of their readers. I know alot of folks that cruise through the site don't take the time to read the comments...and that's ok. But I think that what this gentlemen has said is worth repeating and worth giving it's own entry here.
I hope that Mr. Harrell does not mind my reposting this comment on the "front page" so to speak. If you do please let me know.
So without further ado, I give you the comment that Mr. Kenneth C. Harrell left on my site.
I know that the vast majority of US military men and women serving in Iraq will be grateful to know of your son's comments. Having served in the US Air Force during the War Games of South East Asia (known formally as the Viet Nam War) where the US "leadership" (johnson and mcnamara) refused to allow the US military to fight that as a war and to win, it is gratifying to know that President Bush, once he sent those brave souls into combat, allows them to take the actions necessary to win.
I hope it will continue to be the aim of the US military personnel to do their jobs to the best of their ability, and if it proves to be superior to that of others, that they refrain from any comparison of abilities and where they are able, to pass on what skills and abilities that they see lacking in others. NOT so they can claim any recognition, but so that such additional information passed on to their comrades in arms may benefit them both and the objective of their mission.
We see far too much in the MSM (mainstream media) that is a total distortion of the reality of the situation in Iraq that it becomes amazing that those men and women who's lives are constantly in danger can face yet another day. The, US political party, democrats are constantly whining about "bring the troops home". Their whine has a two fold purpose. To cause the efforts, in Iraq, of President Bush to fail, and to create enough deaths of US personnel that the US public will demand an end to the war. They have no concern that their real purposes will be brought to the attention of the US public, as the MSM is in bed with the democrats and other leftist groups.
The islamofascists want an unstable Iraq so they, with the aide of Iran, build a home base for more terrorist attacks across the world. If the MSM would provide to the US public and hopefully it would be spread world wide, the aim of the group, the muslim brotherhood, the coddling and constant bowing to islamic cult gripes would cease immediately.
The aim of the islamic cult via the muslim brotherhood is basically world conquest. To force the islamic cult onto every human on the planet. Of course, they do allow an "out", you can die. The islamic cult claims that any land previously under the control of the islamic cult remains their domain.
Last week a saudi cleric gave the most revealing comment about why the muslim cult is dead set against democracy and freedom of speech. Freedom of speech, and thus thought, could cause people to question the basis of the islamic cult and thus seek other religions. It's ironic that this fool didn't realize the core fact that he put forth, there is so much hollowness to the islamic cult that when one begins to question the truthfulness of what is contained in the koran, they will see that there is much that has no basis im fact. The one that the islamic cult fears being questioned the most is murdering in the name of Allah. Christians have learned and believe that GOD does not wish man to kill and claim that as a right into HEAVEN. Killing by man is a last resort to Christians, to muslims it is almost an obligation.
The civilized world MUST wake up to this very real and ongoing threat to our civilization posed by the muslimc cult. A strong military which can eliminate the bases of the islamofascists is absolutely essential. Presidents Reagan and both Bushs recognized the requirement. Following the debacle of the attempt to rescue the US hostages in Iran in 1980 under the peanut brain's occupancy of the White House, the US military began to restructure and rebuild under Reagan. What most liberals and all anti_Americans ignore is the fact that the vast majority of military personnel do NOT want to fight. What they want is to present the image of a military that is so strong, efficient and effective that any reasonable man/government will choose to cease its hostile ways instead of continuing to provoke the US. This is what your son has seen. The effects of the training, the equipment and the will to fight for what is right. As long as these are kept at the top, the US will be able, with the courageous aide of nations such as Australia, to continue on in this endeavor. it cannot and should not be done alone. It is the duty of all freedom loving, and not mouthing, but in actions, people to stand up and reject the efforts of tyrants such as hussein, gadafhi, chavez, castro, il, ahmadinejad and these lunatic "mullahs" of the islamic cult, to control the world in the name of communism or the islamic cult, etc.
When the nation's media stands WITH the nation's military in such efforts and not against and in support of such terrorists and terrorist groups, we will have taken a significant step in the right direction. But when the media works at odds to the efforts of the military, for purely partisan political reasons, they place not only the lives of the military personnel, but their own lives and the survival of their nation at risk. Most are simply too stupid to comprehend this fact.
GOOD BLESS YOUR SON and AUSTRALIA.
