Title: Iraqi Army in Besmaya collected a donation for the San Diego, Calif., fire victi Post by: Soldier4Christ on October 27, 2007, 08:40:36 PM Iraqi Army in Besmaya collected a donation for the San Diego, Calif., fire victims
Iraqi men that are risking their lives everyday and barely have the money to feed their own families are donating to the fire victims of San Diego. Where is the MSM? We hear so much of what goes on in Iraq, unless of course it is good news. Then the silence is deafening. What we do not hear is the generosity of the Iraqi’s towards Americans, their gratitude, their acts of incredible kindness.
