'A Terrible Loss ... for All of Iraq'

Submitted by kim, Sep 14, 2007 01:06

Sheik Abu Risha was a light at the end of a very dark tunnel, he had the courage to stand up against Al Qaeda and take back his country. Until more people in Iraq do the same no amount of American troops will stop Al Qaeda from their path of destruction. The Iraqi people must demand and fight for their country or they will be occupied and attacked for years to come. American troops have given them that opportunity now its their time to go forward for a free and secure Iraq.
