Title: A sad email about war Post by: IBE on August 18, 2007, 05:32:40 PM Am checking my emails.. i get about 200 a day for I belong to all kinds of newsletters from LA Rocks (rocks not music) to Congress, to Vets to health and pets..
Here is a very sad one... (I'm still listed as Pres. of a local American Legion Auxiliary, altho I am not now so I recd. this) I wanted to get information on hosting an event at the legion. A dear friend and fellow Culver City resident has sustained major injuries from being hit by a roadside bomb. I wanted to host a silent auction to raise funds. Can you please contact me when you have a moment. Isn't this sad??? Title: Re: A sad email about war Post by: pdh3 on August 18, 2007, 11:50:58 PM It is very sad. It makes me sick.
I just can't understand why we seem to be accomplishing nothing in Iraq, and our young men and women are put in harm's way without gaining any of our objectives. It's been 4 years, and we are no more in control of Iraq than we were the first day we went in. In fact, I think we are on much shakier ground than we were the first week we were there. We are letting our soldiers run around in circles, and we are losing too many of them. I don't understand what we are supposed to be accomplishing now, because clearly, we have failed to make much headway in all this time, and with all this effort and money. |
