E-mails from the Syrian border
Here's my son's thoughts on Saturday, before the election:
I feel its going to be a dangerous mission to secure those people voting. The local insurgency is planning attacks. That's nothing new. But this is the best trained fighting organization in the world and we will accomplish this mission. |
And Sunday night, after the election:
People around here actually went out and voted So thats cool. Despite death threats and mines placed in the roads. That's pretty cool. |
Very cool indeed - especially when you consider that those brave Iraqis had to travel to another town, 12 miles away, over one of the most dangerous stretches of road in Iraq, in order to vote. Way cool.
