A very special thanks to Essex who posted this in another thread some time ago. It meant heaps to me and after reading Tony's post. I thought it appropriate to include it in this thread .
  The British and The Australians .Are too a part of this war Let it be them we will not forget As the battle grounds they too explore By the United States side they stand To give us a helping hand They are fighting for the same things May the Angels embrace them with their wings They too have lost some of their best We ask God to protect the rest As they march on forward with us Making the same progress To all the British and The Australians we thank each of you For the sacrifice your troops have made too Our prayers are with you every day and night While your troops stand faithfully by the United States side to fight  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

From a Marine officer on the Iraqi warfront with Jihadistan... (This is an open letter to Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, "Islamic Response," and the rest of the so-called al-Qa'ida "insurgents" in Iraq and elsewhere. We don't have an e-mail address for these swine -- though we are closing in on their snail-mail address, but we are forwarding this letter to Federalist Patriots around the world in the hope you good people will forward it to as many other Patriots as possible to rally prayer and support for our fellow Marine, Cpl. Wassef Ali Hassoun. Should these al-Qa'ida pigs spill his blood, we want them to rest assured that the contents of this letter will eventually be nailed to their foreheads. Thank you for your assistance.)  I see that you have captured a U.S. Marine, and that you plan to cut off his head if your demands are not met. Big mistake. Before you carry out your threat I suggest you read up on Marine Corps history. The Japanese tried the same thing on Makin Island and in a few other places during World War Two, and came to regret it. Go ahead and read about what then happened to the mighty Imperial Army on Tarawa, Iwo Jima and Okinawa. They paid full price for what they did, and you will too. You look at America and you see a soft target, and to a large extent you are right. Our country is filled with a lot of spoiled children who drive BMWs, sip decaf lattes and watch ridiculous reality TV shows. They are for the most part decent, hard working citizens, but they are soft. When you cut off Nick Berg's head those people gasped, and you got the media coverage you sought, and then those people went back to their lives. This time it is different. We also have a warrior culture in this country, and they are called Marines. It is a brotherhood forged in the fire of many wars, and the bond between us is stronger than blood. While it is true that this country has produced nitwits like John Kerry, Michael Moore, Howard Dean and Jane Fonda who can be easily manipulated by your gruesome tactics, we have also produced men like Jason Dunham, Brian Chontosh and Joseph Perez. If you don't recognize those names you should. They are all Marines who distinguished themselves fighting to liberate Iraq, and there will be many more just like them coming for you. Before the current politically correct climate enveloped our culture one of the recruiting slogans of our band of brothers was "The Marine Corps Builds Men." You will soon find out just how true that is. You, on the other hand, are nothing but a bunch of women. If you were men you would show your faces, and take us on in a fair fight. Instead, you are cowards who hide behind masks and decapitate helpless victims. If you truly represented the interest of the Iraqi people you would not be ambushing those who come to your country to repair your power plants, or sabotage the oil pipelines which fuel the Iraqi economy. Your agenda is hate, plain and simple. When you raise that sword over your head I want you to remember one thing. Corporal Wassef Ali Hassoun is not alone as he kneels before you. Every Marine who has ever worn the uniform is there with him, and when you strike him you are striking all of us. If you think the Marines were tough on you when they were cleaning out Fallujah a few weeks ago you haven't seen anything yet. If you want to know what it feels like to have the Wrath of God called down upon you then go ahead and do it. We are not Turkish truck drivers, or Pakistani laborers, or independent contractors hoping to find work in your country. We are the United States Marines, and we will be coming for you.

9-13 came before 9-11 The tragic events of September eleventh 2001 are etched in to the minds of all of us who were alive to experience that day. This event and the rebirth of patriotism that followed is like no other in recent history. The fact that America was attacked on our own soil is something most of us never even dreamed of happening to our country.This brings to mind another day in September. Not 9-11 but 9-13. This was also an attack on American interests on our own soil. The year was not 2001 or even 1901 but 1814. September thirteenth 1814 was the day that Fort McHenry was attacked by British forces. It was the aftermath of that attack that prompted a 35-year-old lawyer and poet to put pen to paper and write a poem. This poem was put to music and in 1931 the Congress of our country made it the National Anthem. The poem is "The Star Spangled Banner," the author Francis Scott Key. The music that the poem was set to is actually English. "To Anacreon in Heaven." A great deal of time has passed between 9-13 and 9-11. Not much time has passed since 9-11. Too many Americans have forgotten the horror of that day. The modern day attack on our country was a wake-up call for all of us. There was a blip of patriotism on our radar screen. We all had flags on our vehicles. Most of them are gone now. We are still under attack. Brave men are fighting for us. We have a wonderful president that has shown us superior leadership during this time. Many Americans have died and are still dying for our cause. We need to bring ourselves back to the level of patriotism of 9-11 and that of men like Francis Scott Key on 9-13. We need the flags, the support for men like George W. Bush, and an American spirit that we will survive. This is when we know that Freedom is not Free. It costs dollars and even more it costs lives. It cost us thousands of lives on 9-11. Yes, we have lost hundreds in the fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq. More will be lost. This is what happens during military operations. This does not mean we stop. We must continue and win. We cannot let the liberal forces in this country back us down and not take this battle to fruition. Thank God for the leadership of George W. Bush and his willingness to take charge and make preemptive strikes for the good of our nation. We cannot sit back and wait for another 9-11. We do not need more flag draped coffins of police, firefighters, EMT's and paramedics that are killed during a 9-11 type attack. And we for sure do not need thousands of more dead Americans in a big building that will never even be able to be placed in a coffin. Listen to the music, read the words… we need the support and patriotism to continue and win this battle.
