p> A LOOK AT OUR HEROES br> Re: Shawn Macomber's Night Raid!: /p>

Mr. Macomber is a breath of fresh air. While the MSM would have us believe that after such a raid as described in Mr. Macomber's article, American troops would shoot the males, rape the females and the cut off and roast the most tender cuts of children, Mr. Macomber makes it to be just what it is. Terrified civilians, scared soldiers and purpose. Let us not forget for a minute his only passing mention of the AK-47 on the table. Not a few of those are turned on our soldiers and the Iraqi police every night.

p>But most important, let us not forget for one second that there are hundreds of Josef Goebbels propagandizing this war against murderers to make this country weak and promote the "America never" philosophy of the Democrat party. br> -- Jay W. Molyneaux br> Wellington, Florida /p> p> Welcome to Iraq. Your article provided an accurate description of a night raid. Another thought that enters this old soldier's mind is how precious are the young lives of my battle buddies and how short our friendships might be. Also my unscientific observation is that the death ratio is at least ten innocent Iraqi civilians to one Coalition Force troop. br> -- SPC Snuffy Smith
