Can you give us the Why?



Ask me tomorrow.
Today I respect their memory.



Why?
Official reason: To prevent the spread of communism.
Real reason: Pick one that has been proposed in the past or make up a new one.
HAMMER:
Originally employed as a weapon of war, the hammer nowadays is used as a
kind of divining rod to locate the most expensive parts adjacent the
object we are trying to hit.

No.., you tell us what in your mind is the real reason over 50000 young American soldiers were either forced or duped into their death.

If you don't have a good answer I suggest that next Memorial Day, in honor of those soldiers gone and for the benefit of our potential future war casualties you should put Sharpee(tm) to poster board and ask the question on the day people are thinking about them.. WHY!!!!!

Peace,

Well...it's a new day.....you can resume flag burning and criticizing those who protect you.



You know Jaybird,
Speaking about "those who protect you",

It seems I recall a Biblical passage where it came to pass that as Roman soldiers attempted to arrest the Master Jesus one of his disciples cut off the ear of one of the Roman soldiers.

Master Jesus calmly picked up the sword of his disciple and the ear of the Roman soldier .
He reattached the ear , broke the sword and bade the soldier Peace.

If the Master Jesus didn't wish protection and bid his enemies no ill will, should we be thanking those who kill supposed enemies in our name or for our protection?

I don't know about you my brother but I have no enemies.
All peoples are my brothers and sisters.

Peace,
Jim B

I did give you the reason I feel we were there. You just don't want to accept it or agree with it.
