There is no more sacrifice that someone who dies to save others. The main Faith in the West is based on that scacrifice actually. Once upon a time there was a young American, a football player in the Arizona Cardinals, he was a football star, an awesome player. The NFL, the sport press, the public all of them saying the bright future he would have ahead in the Football League. America was brutally attacked in September 11 of 2001, and like most of the people of good will this 23 year old boy was shocked but the shock did not turn into inaction. The football star wanted to make a difference in the fight against terror and this yongster with a salary of 4 million dollars a year left fame, a promising career in the American football, the millonary salary, and joined the US Army. Many of us has served too in the military but I did not give up a lot, in fact one of the attraction of the military was that they paid my way to college and other benefits but not this football star boy; he gave up all what most, logically would not give it up. He was part of the Army Rangers and this week was killed in Afghanistan. He gave up all, and not enough gave up his life. How far below I am if I compare to him. The Arizona Cardinals lost a star; heaven won one. Gus http://espanglishfriends.tripod,com http;//www.geocities.com/nxz1978 |

Again, this is out of our main issue which is the Falkalnds. Of course, I dont want anybody to die, and a life lost is a tragedy, no matter the nationality of the person. But instead of telling us about this poor guy, give the "bill" to Bush....next time when you choose who is going to rule the country in your name, remember all the football stars that are going to die while he seats down relaxed and watchs what's going on in Afghanistan on TV. The american army had nothing to do in Afghanistan nor Irak, now let's think about the youngsters in the iraki forces who were attacked as a payback for a couple of towers they didnt destroy........Noelia http://espanglishfriends.tripod,com http;//www.geocities.com/nxz1978 |
