Found this great read via El mezclador del perrito. For every person who claims that they cherish freedom. this should be a required reading. This is a person who knows first hand why we as Americans fight in Iraq. It's not about oil. It's not about empires. Damn the motives of a select few in the administration if you so wish, but my fellow soldiers out there fight for the same reason Marek Edelman so briliantly states.
This world needs more men like him.
