Re: US Soldiers Among Many Killed In Kabul Attack

Brave solders die protecting their nation. This attack on Saturday once again reminds of us of the sacrifices being made by our forces. Those who continue to criticize our forces and their mission in the region seem to forget that our forces die protecting the lives of innocents. They are here not as occupying forces but as saviors of humanity… People who attack us ruthlessly have no value for lives, whether it is our brave soldier’s or innocent Afghan’s.

Have we ever taken a minute to reflect on these young brave soldiers who leave the comfort of their homes to stand up to protect others? Ours is a volunteer military, and some who are deployed overseas leave behind young wives and kids. We are proud of them and salute their families for their sacrifices. I am not going to talk about the terrorists much, for they not only kill our sons and daughters but have no regards for their own. On Saturday’s attack, two school going children were also killed, which speaks volumes for the terrorists and their motives. But I am going to address the conspiracy theorists to look at the sacrifices that our young men and women are making and to stop giving the terrorists an iota of leeway. They are killers with one mission, to create mayhem and kill to prove their power.

Rest assured, the resolve of the majority of the people of the region is to live in peace and dignity, and the terrorists cannot defeat them with their ruthless killing. We stand united against all terror and they will be defeated.
