Iraq

Today marks the seventh anniversary of America's invasion of Iraq, which was then called a "pre-emptive strike." Then there was the "mission accomplished" sign and speech just three weeks later. Next came the information that we had gone in on "bad intelligence," but we didn't let that stop us from setting up a kangaroo court to murder the deposed leader of that sovereign nation. Finally came the hope and promise, our troops would come home, shortly after the election. Well, it's been over a year now, and the new promise is 2011. And . . . amazingly, there are still Americans that believe this war in Iraq is somehow connected with 9/11.
And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. New Testament

When birth pains come, keep breathing deeply.

You know, Life, you make a good point. Be it natural or spiritual, we must not fear and keep moving forward. Will be "breathing deeply," as the future unfolds.

You have said so much in a simple statement.
