"Blessed are the merciful,
For they shall obtain mercy."

Do we have any more mercy?

I have a greater understanding of September 11th, 2001. As working in a call center on that day, I heard the horror, pain, and terror of New Yorkers, folks from Washington D.C., and many others impacted by the horrible day in World History.

Do we have any more mercy?

The Washington Post has quoted a U.S. Army general quoted as this current military action could not change the flow of the insurgents in Iraq.

From the September 8th, 2007 edition of the Post;

In a preview of his report to Congress next week, Gen. David H. Petraeus yesterday expressed disappointment in the lack of progress toward political reconciliation in Iraq. Administration officials said he wants to return to Washington for another assessment in six months to allow more time for Iraqi politics to catch up with what Petraeus regards as rapidly improving security conditions.

The lead General of the InterAlliance forces is disappointed by this?

Do we have any more mercy?

Lima Company; based out of Columbus had the largest loss for soliders of any units stationed or deployed to the Middle East.

I am not an opponent to George W. Bush. As a president, he has done the best with the information provided.

But we need to regain trust with allies from the first time; we went over there to cut back on the troops we need there.

Britain has pulled out. The bulk of European Union nations has pulled any troops out.

The mercy I am speaking of is allowing a combination of military and humanitarian forces to come in. Also, to hope and pray the United States can allow more democratic nations to fill the gap of troops lost and returned home.

 

So, with that being said..what about September 11th, 2007?

Never forget the loss and sacrifices the United States has made to ensure freedom.

If you are able to go to a rememberance ceremony, go. If not; take five to ten minutes to pray for those whom lost loved ones and pray for those whom are serving to protect us.

Greetings to all.

Have not blogged in a while nor have seen a News-worthy to do this. So here we are.

First off, to introduce myself. My name is Noel Giles Kennedy, a moderate independent Christian. I believe that is the duty of all Americans to take part in their community.

I am married to a loving wife, Tanya; and currently working for Clear Channel Communications in the Columbus, Ohio market.

I also have a couple irons in the fire; more to come on that.

Why here?

Yes, TownHall is owned by Salem Communications. But, it is also an open-mined conservative and Judeo-Christian based site that I feel I can convey my message of civic and spiritual responsibility.

Why now?

Why not...

That is about it for now, more to come once the world hacks me off about something, God gives me a word, or I feel silly about something.

God Bless, The Mighty NGK.
