As a mother whose son is serving in Iraq at this moment, I really doubt that all the facts are revealed whether for the right or the wrong. I continue to believe daily my son is there for the good. I trust in the one who is in control over his life, who is God, and pray for all others who are there fighting the fight as we are. Those in the wrong will also answer for it someday, too.

Amen, sister. No one who is truly a compassionate human "likes" war -- but sometimes it is a necessary evil. I too am sure we don't necessarily know all the fact (nor may we ever know them as a general citizen of this nation), but I believe & hope that we're there fighting for all the right reasons (although, I definitely am not naive as to others' opinions & beliefs). Give your son a big hand shake, hug, & "Thank You" from me & mine -- I couldn't be more thankful for your son, his brethren in the Armed Services, & all those who have served before them. God Bless everyone – especially our service members, their families, our leaders, & our country.
