President Obama announced Friday, October 19, 2011, that American troops will leave Iraq by the end of the year as planned, and that the "long war in Iraq" will come to an end.  The following video was published online on November 12, 2012 by Heritage Foundation.

"Our troops in Iraq will definitely be home for the holidays," he said.  Add that to the rest of the lies this failure has spewed  out in the past five years, including the 2008 campaign.

Major Ben Richards can't speak for every veteran. He does, however, have a moving story to tell about his soldiers. This excerpt from the forthcoming film “Veteran Nation,” produced by Coldwater Media, reminds us of the honor and sacrifice of those who serve.  The American soldiers you see in this video are not really in Iraq--or are they?

 

Does any reasonable person really believe Iraq and its corrupt government leaders are going to live happily ever after when we leave?  I consider this a rehearsal for what will happen in Afghanistan when we leave.  My generation has already seen this movie before.  It was called “Vietnamization.”   Americans killed: 58,220.  What a waste.  Just like Iraq and Afghanistan.

Won’t you please consider a contribution to Wounded Warrior Project or the Fischer House Foundation?
