I don't know what the answer is right now, but I don't understand why we would even consider backing Al-Qaeda, after all we have been through. I know there are a lot of issues here though. Like everyone else, I am watching to see what our leadership does. We have family in the military and we are praying for the best possible outcome for our country and the world.

Perhaps instead of meddling in everyone else's affairs, it would be good to straighten out things within our own borders first.

I agree with you 100% .... this is a very tough issue for every American to ponder and come to any confident opinion about, except that the polls seem to suggest that the fast majority of us are, indeed, against us getting further involved and entangled over there. SO many factors that make it a complex issue, yet, insanity is doing the same things and expecting different results. Our foreign policies need some evaluating and tweaking.<br /><br />I love how you ended this though with the focus on prayer. If we are to come close to receiving what you asked in your prayer... our nation MUST return to its roots in trusting GOD and not ourselves. We have been so blessed materially that "we as a country" have come to think that we do not need God, and the evil in the world proves that we very MUCH need Him!The Lucky Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01437409264483555824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7821400212276514385.post-62762029957498445532013-09-11T12:01:01.168-04:002013-09-11T12:01:01.168-04:00Thank you for your post.

The news outlets sensationalize everything, the gov't seems to hold back info, and you never really know what is going on in other parts of the world unless you are there or know someone there. These are trying times, and I hope they somehow start to calm down, because I am afraid our leaders and leaders of other countries act too quickly and then think about the actions afterwards. Where will that leave all of us?Sweet Jenny'shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00248993573952697518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7821400212276514385.post-34028579016835067352013-09-11T11:37:21.030-04:002013-09-11T11:37:21.030-04:00Being military I'm dreading when this day come...Being military I'm dreading when this day comes.
