It's Because of Them

--continued

““We think a bomb hit here. I’m having a hard time breathing. I probably won’t make it out of here. I just want you to know I love you.”

Peter Mardikian, victim of the North Tower on 9/11 spoken to his wife Corine on a cell phone

“ On the Sunday before 9/11, Kevin put the boys on the phone with me, and that is the last time I spoke to them. Kevin was my only child. I lost him, and now I’ve lost my grandchildren.”

Mother of Kevin Bingley who was killed in the South Tower on 9/11

Yes, it’s because of them. And thousands and thousands more JUST like them. The hurt, the wounds, the grief never seem to end. And neither does the fury in many of us. We are in Iraq to defeat the Evil that has hurt so many, many innocent people. We are in Iraq to finally say “enough is enough.” We are in Iraq to rid the World of these animals. And most importantly, we are in Iraq….because of them.
