Lets not get too hasty....

While I completely agree that the death of Osama bin Laden is an incaluable victory for the United States and the world I cannot agree with some of the reactions I have heard in reference to his death. Last night Hugh and I were looking on facebook at all the comments about bin Laden and I came across one that my friend had written tha said something along the lines of, "Please send our troops home!! Thank you for your service." Yes, it is a nice sentiment, but how ignorant! To think that the whole purpose of sending our men, woman, fathers, and mothers over to the Middle East just to find and kill Osama bin Laden. Well now that we've done that everything is going to be fine...right? How long do you think it will be until many more people attempt to rise up and fill his shoes, in the meantime taking innocent lives? All I'm saying is, let's not get too hasty. Let's not forget that what our servicemen and woman are doing in the Middle East is much more far reaching than catching bin Laden. They still need all our support and prayers to continue the freedom giving service they are rendering to all of us. God bless the USA.
