Some time back this writer published an article entitled “Eight years in Afghanistan! Our soldiers are still dying in war!” This is the original article published at

Today I got this comment from Debbie, a mother of a soldier in Afghanistan, asking me to do what I could to help her.

Entry: President Obama: Eight years in Afghanistan! Our soldiers are still dying in war!
Posted/Updated: 11/13/2009 01:07 PM

Debbie - MY name is Debbie and my son is a member in the 5th Stryker Brigade 1-17 ID fighting in Afghanistan. I can't just sit here any longer while the extra troops they need are being pushed on the back burner. I created a YouTube video and I hope you can help by watching it and passing it along. We need to keep our Soldiers in the forefront and I don't know how else to help them. Please help me and view this video immediately and pass it on. This comes straight from the heart of the mother of an American Soldier. YouTube Video Mr. Obama Our Troops Are Dying.  Please honor this mother's request.

Below is the sad reminder of what families here in Atlanta, every small town in Georgia, and all across our nation are going through. This video will tear your heart out. If not, perhaps you should see your cardiologist to see if it is still there. They don’t ask for any special favors just that their soldiers have the benefit of the most powerful, rich, and benevolent nation in the world to keep their sons and daughters alive while fighting for America’s freedom and that of those oppressed who desire Democracy.

Read the first article. Watch this video if you can stay in your chair long enough; and then pray for the families of those listed below. These soldiers not only belong to their families and Georgia; but to America and now to eternity.
 
Woman to Woman:

Doing as Debbie requested – I could do no less – please contact your senators and tell them they must get President Obama to lay aside politics and listen to the Generals in the field and protect our soldiers until they can all come home. What is our government coming to when they cannot even protect our soldiers on their own soil in one of the biggest military bases in the world; and refuse to either bring our soldiers home – or send enough troops to get the job done with honor and victory for America and the Afghan peoples?

Contact the President, the Vice-President, Senators and Representatives and enter the plea for this mother – a plea for all mothers – a plea for America. We the people of the United States must take a stand for our nation and for our soldiers and for our children of all ages.

While these are from Georgia, you can find the names of the fallen soldiers in your state with a little research. These soldiers not only belong to their families and Georgia; but to America and now to eternity.

“Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. (And his country)” John 15:13
