There is simply no better Christmas present you can give
this year than one to American soldiers risking their lives in Iraq and
Afghanistan so that we may safely enjoy our freedom here at home.
They are true "human shields," willing to place their lives
between Islamofascist terrorists and us.
As General John Abizaid, commander of US forces in Iraq, has
explained: "If America walks away from
the terrorists in Iraq and Afghanistan, the terrorists won't walk away from
America."
There are so many ways to give our soldiers a Christmas
present - and they are all listed in the Defense Department's website America Supports
You.
You can send a care package to a soldier in Iraq, donate
frequent flyer miles to help reunite him or her with their family, send support
to wounded soldiers, contribute to military scholarship funds, and so much
else.
The Make a
Difference - How You Can Help section of the website provides the details
on how you can give over two dozen different kinds of Christmas presents to our
soldiers.
As you are reading this, tens of thousands of the brightest
and bravest Americans on earth are fighting for us. Just think of what it will mean to any of them that you care
enough, you appreciate them enough, to give them a Merry Christmas.
For it's not only the best Christmas present you can give to
someone else. It's also the best
Christmas present you can give to yourself and your country.
