Cory...

My Boy, Cory, is coming home for Christmas from the Marines tomorrow! But then in January, he is shipping off to Bahrain, to fight, from there, the Mujaheddin in Afghanistan. The Mujaheddin celebrate their Hajj(Journey by able bodied Muslims)to Mecca, we celebrate the birth of our Lord, in Bethlehem. But, still the war of Civilizations wears on... Darkness descends as we tear each other limb from limb, as the West crumbles and the Middle East gains strength, though we fight for the same God. Call Him God, Allah, Jehovah, it doesn't matter. He is the God of Abraham. We should celebrate our sameness this season, as opposed to our differences... That's just my opinion I could be wrong, or could invite withering abuse from either side...
