OPERATION: IRAQI FREEDOM
SADDAM CAUGHT!
Former Iraqi leader discovered hiding at bottom of hole in home near Tikrit


http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=36125

My hub and i served in the US Navy, we both went to Desert Storm in 1990. i can't tell you how overjoyed i was to hear this this morning, i started to cry! This is the best Christmas present ever for us. Especially since my older bro is over there, and is not sure if he will be home for the birth of his first child (in beginning of March). My husband's uncle is also over there too. So it will be nice to have them home, hopefully soon.  

How many of us here are praying for Saddam?

Define "praying for Saddam" please...

I simultaneously pray for him and about him. I do wish him to be saved, but God is a just God as well as merciful. And this guy has murdered countless people for not reason at all. This cannot be ignored.

General Noriega the former dictator of Nicaragua I understand accepted the Lord.

So God can save even the vilest of the vile.

In the case of Sadaam, it is doubtful he will seek the God of heaven, more likely the god of the koran, nevertheless the Lord commands us to pray for our enemies, and love them.

It is something we should do, If we Love the Lord.

Amen.

Yup, i was thinking that today. i hope that someone where he is can tell him the Truth. he will be in solitary confinement i am sure, so it would have to be a guard/soldier where ever he ends up. My mom has been saying we need to pray for him for a long time, but people don't want to hear it. We also need to pray that those who gaurd him not be swayed by power or greed, that they don't think about leaking vital info about him that could cause an escape attempt, ect. that is what concerns me also, given that the US forces have soldiers becoming muslims with out the government even knowing it, (like the marine who threw a grenade at his own troops). But you are right, he needs a lot of prayer so that he doesn't have to go to hell for eternity.

If even that. I mean, he was killing those who call on the same false God he was, because they didn't agree with his twisted verse of the Koran! :( Thank God for men like Bush, who protect the freedom of all, so they may one day live to hear to the word of the true God!

We're to love our enemies, but nowhere in the Bible does it say we are to deny justice to the oppressed. In fact, the Bible promises God's judgment on those who do this. You have to remember, this huy is a murderer. Where does Jesus say to let murderers off the hook?

They shouh cut off SADDAMS head and show it to him :)


Brother Love :)

On the bright side, the liberals haven’t attacked Bush since then. It looks like France and rest of the "Chirac Clique" has decided to help us out a little, too. Haha, looking like someone is scared Saddam will talk...

Heehee! That's terrible! ;D

Tibby, that's an interesting observation. We're all such monsters for hunting this guy down, every inconceivable ill motive, character slams and conspiracy theory...one guy was even saying Bush knew about 9-11 and was remaining silent...then our allies start coming into the light for what they've been doing, and now that he's been caught, everyone is silent. We'll have to see what comesout of this.

Hopeandfaith,

Welcome to the forums. Many thanks to you and family for the contributions you have made to this country, and to the world. The US GI has set many a captive free.

President Bush has done quite a job.  And just the other day danced through a major interrogation with Diane Sawyer.  Once again, on the gay marriage question, Bush answered, "We're all sinners.  What about that verse in the Bible, that says how can I point out the speck that is in your eye, if I have a log in mine?"  

To my mind, a perfect response.  Way to go, President Bush.  I wonder if the media, though, will even quote or refer to that part of the interview.  

A surprise visit to the chow line, literally, on Thanksgiving Day.

And now capturing this madman.


Forgiveness--definitely, if he wants it.

Many men even on their death bed want nothing to do with the Lord.

But justice?  That too.  What about all those who were tortured or died at his hand.  Do they deserve anything?

Or, more accurately, does wrong deserve no rebuke?

What message would that send to the other would-be Hitlers of the world--and there are plenty of them?

***** DITTO*****

Yes, amen! I wonder where Ollie is... I'd like to here is thoughts on the issue, knowing his thoughts on Bush.

An oldie gut goodie....

Lesson to a Son

The other day, my nine-year-old son wanted to know why we were at war. My husband looked at our son and then looked at me. My husband and I were in the Army during the Gulf War and we would be honored to serve and defend our country again today. I knew that my husband would give him a good explanation.

My husband thought for a few minutes and then told my son to go stand in our front living room window. He told him:

"Son, stand there and tell me what you see?"

"I see trees and cars and our neighbors houses." he replied.

"OK, now I want you to pretend that our house and our yard is the United States of America and you are President Bush."

Our son giggled and said "OK."

"Now son, I want you to look out the window and pretend that every house and yard on this block is a different country." my husband said.

"OK Dad, I'm pretending."

"Now I want you to stand there and look out the window and see that man come out of his house with his wife and he has her by the hair and is hitting her. You see her bleeding and crying. He hits her in the face, he throws her on the ground, and then he starts to kick her to death. Their children run out and are afraid to stop him, they are crying, they are watching this but do nothing because they are kids and afraid of their father. You see all of this son....what do you do?"

"Dad?"

"What do you don son?!"

"I call the police, Dad."

"OK. Pretend that the police are the United Nations and they take your call, listen to what you know and saw but they refuse to help. What do you do then son?!"

"Dad, but the police are supposed to help!" My son starts to whine.

"They don't want to son, because they say that it is not their place or your place to get involved and that you should stay out of it," my husband says.

"But Dad...he killed her!!" my son exclaims.

"I know he did...but the police tell you to stay out of it. Now I want you to look out that window and pretend you see our neighbor who you're pretending is Saddam turn around and do the same thing to his children."

"Daddy...he kills them?"

"Yes son, he does. What do you do?"

"Well, if the police don't want to help, I will go and ask my next door neighbor to help me stop him." our son says.

"Son, our next door neighbor sees what is happening and refuses to get involved as well. He refuses to open the door and help you stop him," my husband says.

"But Dad, I NEED help!!! I can't stop him by myself!!"

"WHAT DO YOU DO SON?"

Our son starts to cry.

"OK, no one wants to help you, the man across the street saw you ask for help and saw that no one would help you stop him. He stands taller and puffs out his chest. Guess what he does next son?"

"What Daddy?"

"He walks across the street to the old ladies house and breaks down her door and drags her out, steals all her stuff and sets her house on fire and then...he kills her. He turns around and sees you standing in he window and laughs at you. WHAT DO YOU DO?!!!"

"Daddy..."

"WHAT DO YOU DO?!!!"

Our son is crying and he looks down and he whispers, "I close the blinds, Daddy."

My husband looks at our son with tears in his eyes and asks him... "Why?"

"Because Daddy.....the police are supposed to help...people who need it....and they won't help....You always say that neighbors are supposed to HELP neighbors, but they won't help either...they won't help me stop him...I'm afraid....I can't do it by myself...Daddy.....I can't look out my window and just watch him do all these terrible things and...and.....do nothing...so....I'm just going to close the blinds....so I can't see what he's doing........and I'm going to pretend that it is not happening."

I start to cry.

My husband looks at our nine year old son standing in the window, looking pitiful and ashamed at his answers to my husbands questions and he tells him...."Son"

"Yes, Daddy."

"Open the blinds because that man....he's at your front door..."WHAT DO YOU DO?!!!!"

My son looks at his father, anger and defiance in his eyes. He balls up his tiny fists and looks his father square in the eyes, without hesitation he says: "I DEFEND MY FAMILY DAD!! I'M NOT GONNA LET HIM HURT MOMMY OR MY SISTER, DAD!!! I'M GONNA FIGHT HIM, DAD, I'M GONNA FIGHT HIM!!!!!"

I see a tear roll down my husband's cheek and he
grabs my son to his chest and hugs him tight, and cries..."It's too late to fight him, he's too strong and he's already at YOUR front door son.....you should have stopped him BEFORE he killed his wife. You have to do what's right, even if you have to do it alone, before......it's too late." my husband whispers.

THAT scenario I just gave you is WHY we are at war with Iraq. When good men stand by and let evil happen is the greatest EVIL of all. Our President is doing what is right. We, as a free nation, must understand that this war is a war of humanity. WE must remove this evil man from power so that we can continue to live in a free world where we are not afraid to look out our window and see crimes on humanity. So that my nine-year-old son won't grow up in a world where he feels that if he just "closes" that blinds the atrocities in the world won't affect him.

"YOU MUST NEVER BE AFRAID TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT! EVEN IF YOU HAVE TO DO IT ALONE!"

 Great story thanks.



The way i see itthe capture of the creep is an answer to prayer.
