What a great article Joe. Who knew what kind of tactics they use to destroy human life. Please keep all the servicemen & servicewoman in our prayers. May God be with them.

this article is well written & definitely gets the point across. i heard this story 1st hand from you but for some reason whenever you have a pen or keyboard @ hand its like magic. i respect all of the servicemen & know that they have alot of courage to do what they do.

My girlfriend and I both served in Iraq. It's disturbing how bad things have gotten since we returned in 2005. I can't imagine having to intentionally kill a child to defend myself. I pray for the soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan.

So much better than the news you hear every morning on GMA. It's real and factual. Very interested in hearing more - it opened my eyes. (had no idea about how they use children - that's so horrible)

What a compelling and moving piece! Too often we detach ourselves from the details until someone we know is living them. I keep your friend in my prayers every night and I will include all the brave men and women who fight beside him. Thanks for opening our eyes.
