Security Crackdown in Baghdad.

What has long been needed hopefully is beginning.

Within the last 5 hours, US, Iraqi and Coalition forces have begun a crackdown that will hopefully pave the way for even greater assertion of power.

It's been too long since we've given the insurgents any retribution of substance.
It's been too long since we've given any indication of having any sort of backbone.

We are the most powerful nation on the planet, why have we been made impotent by politicians? Why do people such as Nancy Pelosi, John Murtha and Hilary Clinton feel they have to make our country weak?

We are NOT a weak country, we've have survived since 1620 when the first Englishman stepped off the Mayflower.

We never gave up, even through Valley Forge where George Washington never gave up faith and courage.
In 1776, 56 men put their lives, their comforts, and their fortunes on the line. They signed a document known as the Declaration of Independence.
"We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal."
Words that changed the face of the world, and brought forth the greatest nation on earth.
We survived the slaughter of 500,000 American men for the sake of unity in the civil war.
We lost nearly5 million men in the wars this country has fought.

They were not fighting simply to win honor or glory. They were not fighting be recognized as one of the greatest fighting machines on earth.

They fought for one purpose; to defend their country, their freedoms, and their families.
They fought to protect what is right, the rights to live freely, to speak freely.

They fought so that you can burn a flag. So that you can ridicule them, call them names, spit on them. So that you can throw your freedom in their faces.

Do not give into the Liberal way of thinking.
This country was birthed through war and opposition. Did we turn tail and run?

If everytime something came against us that we didn't like, we would not even exist as a country.

Well said. I only hope and pray that this will be enough. There is far to much red-tape holding back our troops from fighting a real war. The government needs to let them fight like they were trained, hopefully during this security crackdown we'll do something different.
