Please thank him for me... He deserves it!
Now ask him if he believes that this war is a vendetta or about oil. If I were a betting man, I would wager that he, and the vast majority of those he serves with, do not. That is the only point I was trying to make.
Also, thank you for any efforts you put into actively supporting our troops... They deserve it!
I did not mean to imply that you don't "support our troops." I did mean to imply that the vast majority of this country has a far different view than those who are doing this country's work.
I don't mean to get preachy at you, or anyone, but it is my job, my passion, and my life to support our troops. It greatly bothers me to know how skewed a perception most of the world has about their efforts, their mission, and their sacrifices.
