The war in Iraq was not a mistake, as Obama and so many Democrats state, and it is doing an incredible
amount of good for the cause of freedom, not only in America but in the rest of the world. Those who don't
understand this war need to remember something very significant. When we were attacked in WWII, we knew
very clearly who the enemy was: they had a big red circle on the tail of their planes. We knew where they
lived and where to go after them. When we were attacked on 9/11, we had a pretty good idea of who the
enemy was, but the problem was that they didn't live in any one particular location - they strategically
position themselves all over the planet. But we did know that many of them were supported and funded by
the government of Iraq (I detail evidence for this in my book - you can find details at just2simpleguys.com). So, President Bush
made the bold decision to go there (and Afghanistan) to begin the slow process of bringing down this
ruthless enemy. And now, six years later, that decision has been shown to be a wise one as we have been
immeasurably safer than if we had sat around and waited for yet another attack.
Thank you to President Bush for having the foresight to provide a measure of protection and safety for
this world as we are up against an enemy that is like nothing we've seen before. And thank you to
all of our brave men and women in uniform - we all owe you so much.
