96 hours

96 hours and blood on the street

10 years and 100 thousand plus lives

96 hours and blood on the street

The mission a sham nothing complete

800 billion for a pound of flesh

How do you sleep?

96 hours after our retreat

Just 96 hours there’s blood on the street

I was watching the world news the fourth day after our withdrawal from Iraq and it was reported there was blood in the streets due to internal fighting. After all those lives lost, time and money spent, in four short days, a mere 96 hours, things had started to unravel. I believe the American people want to put this war behind them. I also believe we can’t ignore the harsh reality of why and who got us involved. My hope is for the men and women who served and for their families, that in their time of need, we will be there to help and support them. ~ Pete Thelen of Baileys Harbor, Vietnam Era Veteran
