Every side of any conflict has urgent desire to get their own combat troops back home. Since this swap in war time is inevitable, when the right moment came President Obama made the correct decision–quite different from the reckless elbow jerk act of invading, attacking and occupying two nations–Iraq and Afghanistan.
Dear Ones,
This aggression was a violation against International Law that prohibits children from being killed in urban street war zones–illicit massive criminal carpet bombing–missile explosions of lethal chemicals and radioactive nosecones shattering lives of innocent people and an aftermath wipe-up that will take decades for recovery.
Caring parents suffer along with their youths, hired as military government employees, when bad things happens to them. I know this to be true. It takes a compassionate, understanding president to make success happen–bringing them back alive.
Judgmental critics have myopia and only see one side during war times. But loved ones of all young people trained to kill one another suffer from grief when their children are crippled for life or killed. Both sides want them back, especially their families.
WWII General/President Dwight D. Eisenhower spoke from his heart and soul, "I hate war as only a soldier who has lived it can, only as one who has seen its brutality, its futility, its stupidity."
Thank goodness the United States of America has another intelligent, compassionate president–Barack Obama–who miraculously was the orchestra director in bringing the instigator of September 11, 1001 down in order to bring back harmony to Earth that is still being contaminated by the serial crime of war. It was not the former president who evaded war and boasted in a military uniform that he would bring the instigator of 911 down.
If it wasn't for President Obama, the U.S. would be up to our necks in the mire of mud and hypocritical war. But a burden of complexity is difficult to juggle when a president inherits a trillion dollar war debt and is hampered by an inept Congress more interested in political competition than the quality and equality of human beings.
