It is the last blog entry of Army Specialist Stephen Fortunato of Danvers, Massachusetts, who died from injuries sustained from an IED in Afghanistan on Monday, Oct 13th. I believe he speaks for the vast majority of U.S Armed Forces personnel who are deployed over in that part of the world, and here at home.

    FTA,

    "Many of these people signed up after 9/11, and still even more after Operation Iraqi Freedom began in 2003.

    SPC Fortunato was serving in the US Army’s 26th Infantry Regiment and worked as a gunner on a Humvee.

    The following was the last entry in his blog:

    If I may …

    I’d like to say something….Just to get it out there so it is clear."

      Even if this is just a war for profit or to assert America’s power, so what?

      If you find yourself completely disgusted with the way America is being ran, and how we handle things on the global stage, you can leave.

      if you insist on staying here and taking advantage of privileges such as free speech


      So what? I disagree. If it turn out that the war was started for profits then the culprits need to be identified and procecuted for your death.

      If you don't like it, leave? Wrong. I was born in this country and I will stay and fight for the govenrment the I want in this country. That is my right and you have no right to tell me to leave if I disagree with the POTUS and his strategically blunderous decision that probably lead to your death.

      Free speech is not a priviledge, it is a fundemental right insure by the Bill of Rights.

      I grieve your death and the death of all those who died in GW's Nation building blunder in both Afghanistan and Iraq. I wish you had been given the task of capturing and/or killing Osama and al Queda where ever they are. And it's a real shame that GW didn't take advantage of the situation and use it to inspire Americans to reduce our dependence on foriegn oil.......But wait, where is the money in that? Nevermind......
