We're Doing the Right Thing in Iraq

I agree with the reasons that we have gone to Iraq. I may not agree with some actions that people choose while they are supposed to be over there protecting and serving our people and now the civilian Iraqis, but I am behind helping them and protecting us from terrorists. I know that a lot of people don't agree with President Bush or the reasons why this is happening and I know that the price of gas totally sucks right now, but we must realize that we are doing the right thing. When people do the right thing, others get blessed by it. We are helping the innocent and stopping the guilty from hurting the innocent anymore. I don't see how anyone can honestly see any different. My son-in-law is in Iraq, al Asid, right now. We miss him, love him, pray for him daily, and wish he was home already! This doesn't change my opinion that we are doing a good thing. I stand behind all this, knowing that my granddaughter's daddy is fighting for our protection and their rights. I ask you to pray for his safety and quick return home. I hate it that we have to lose innocent people in order to protect others but that has been going on since the beginning of time. War is part of life on Earth. At some point in history, there was a time that people came to realize that all people should be treated with love and respect. There was a time in our history that people had to stand up for what they believed. These are the times that we see heros become from regular people. These are the times that we must come together as one to bring about good for all nations. These are the times that people must decide, why am I objecting, I'd want someone to save my children from those terrible people, I'd want someone to help my family have safety, security, education, opportunity, etc. Wouldn't you, if you are truely honest?
