What Kerry said, soldiers reactions and educating yourself to why we are in Iraq
Kerry was wrong to say what he said. Either which way, our military servicemen and women are very well educated. Many have degrees in which civilians could only wish to have. To add, an employer will hire a veteran over a fresh college grad because of leadership, dedication and high self esteem qualities. A vet will do what it takes to get a job done.
Kerry was wrong to say what he said. Our soldiers in Iraq, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia have already heard what Kerry has said. They are very disgusted.
If you have never served your country, nor have been over there to understand and see why we are there, then you really should not even speak. Try writing to a soldier and ask them what they see or what their opinions are. If you don't know and you want to EDUCATE yourself, rent the documentary "Voices from Iraq". The Iraqi people speak for themselves and their thoughts of the U.S. being there.

Apparently you have never been deployed where the Iraqi's have actually suffered from the reign of Sudam or the Taliban. Have you seen or have you even held a child in which the Taliban had gotten their hands on? How about hearing a child cry, having him wince away from you and screaming in pain? Why? Because the Taliban had just gone through his town, beat him and then placed buttock on a hot iron griddle holding him there until his skin was nothing but charred flesh! Have you seen the women the Taliban had rapped? Have you even spoken to these people? They are glad we are there. If you watched the news recently, you will see that Sadam's death sentence is greatly rejoiced!
Apparently you have not served long enough either to know, there were definately weapons of mass distruction over there. Or you just were not on the ground to see the results of what Saddam and his sons have done to the Kurds. If you would have been there the first time or even with the people this time, you would know, we are there for the right reasons. And to think, these people are here in the U.S as well. Terror Cells. They are everywhere. These people could do the same thing to our friends, families, and neighbors. Could you look at a child who had gone through what the little boy did, in which I had earlier described? Or know how to console an old blind women who had been beaten and raped from these terrorists? Well then Air Boy, suck it up and drive on. You raised your hand and swore an oath to protect our country from enemies foreign and domestic. If you don't like it, when it comes time for you to ETS get out!
