Bring them home, Their lives are being waisted?

I am a military wife. My husbands job is to defend our nation. So that we can be free. Don’t we want that for others? I think it is selfish to want to bring the troops home. Our military service is on a volunteer basis. That means the young men and woman and the mature leaders who guide them signed up of their own free will.
So people are saying bring the troops home, and the government (the voice of the people) is trying to “set a date for troops to come home” It has been written and said that we are wasting American blood to fight a the ghost of terrorism. I am of the opinion that any man or woman who’s life is sacrificed for others is found. Terrorism is evil. It is a secret combination. Men and women who are power hungry, vicious, murderous, and vain.
After 9-11 we rallied to find out what they were going to do to protect us, but it took longer than the quick fix, I want it right now, Americans thought it would. We wanted a war on terrorism. Justice for the innocent who were killed. We want to be safe in our homes in our neighborhoods in our work places. We don’t want to be randomly attacked and live in fear that there will be no tomorrow.
There are families in Iraq. There are Mothers, Fathers, and children, who are afraid, who come up missing, who are gunned down, and slaughtered. May I ask, Who is our neighbor? The answer: Any one who we are able to help. We are able to help! We have a military that is strong, trained and well lead. Let them do the job they wanted to do, and lets be the country that they would want to defend.
Their lives are not wasted, they are fighting the good fight. They are doing what is right. They are helping, sacrificing, and protecting. Some are taken, but they are now at peace. The lives that are wasted are the ones that have no desire to stand for anything, but self. The ones that give no service to others, the ones that indulge in drugs, pornography, alcohol and every other addictions. If I could choose, what cause would take my husband or son, I would pick the defense of our nation over , drugs, and alcohol related car accidents, and raves that take far more of our nations teens and young adults. These are the lives that are wasted. Not the young men and women of our nation in the military who are in need of our support. I want to be an American citizen who believes in my country and the freedom of all people to live unafraid. I am a military wife, my husband is gone, and I am glad that he has chosen such a worthy cause to defend. I hope I live worthy of the sacrifice the men and women of out military make.
