The Travesty of Iraq

The death toll in Iraq has reached 4,000; I have mixed feelings about that. As a nation, we've toppled the government of another. A tyrant was removed from office, a good thing. But 4,000 American men and women have died for what, a fledging government? As a Christian though, I'm pretty sure that Jesus said that we're supposed to turn the other cheek when provoked, not topple two national governments. So in honor of the 4,000 people that have died, let's figure out how to quit wasting taxpayer money and get our troops out.
