"pointed out the nice houses, saying the people had been simple farmers with comfortable homes and lives.
Until al Qaeda came."
Citizens of the West, do you understand this? This is our future. Unless we fight and KEEP fighting. Now, and always. This enemy will not retreat back past some imaginary national border. This enemy goes after its own as well as us. They have no pity, no compassion, no humanity.
Understand? Or are too many of us distracted by some jackass show on TV or the turgid romance of some non-entity celebrity?
I had the great honor, the priviledge of hearing Oliver North speak yeasterday. One of the statements he made concerned one of the toughest things he has had to do recently. He had to tell a squad of soldiers who had captured a a notorious terrorist killer that he had to hold on doing the satellite feed to share the good news because of a "BREAKING STORY!".
The big news that pre-empted this important event?
Paris f***king Hilton gettting out of jail. (My words, not the good Marine's.)
He also told of a Navy corpsman, who during a fire fight early in the liberaton of Baghadad, repeatedly ran into the battle feild to retieve fallen Marines. He would field dress their wounds, put them on his back and run to the EVAC chopper. Once, twice, three times, four, the young man brought in wounded. On the fourth trip he carred in a wounded Republican Guard soldier, field dressing about his head, and dropped the unconscious Iraqi in and turned to run, again out in to the bullets.
An Aussie AP film crew had been filming the entire event, jeered at the young man saying "Hey mate! Didn't you see that?!" Meaning "How stupid could you be to pick up an emeny?" The young corpsman did not pause in his run to answer but waved back in the universal gesture reserved for idiots.Lt. Col. North said quietly. "We treat wounded. We treat wounded enemies,. It is what we do. We are Americans."
Al Quaeda behead children. Get it?
For the life of me I cannot understand why so many, especially in Washington D.C. do not.
