Se acabo, por ahora

"I've decided to stop posting until my deployment is over. Let me make this clear: nobody has told me to do it. Nobody here even knows I have this blog. But I've thought long and hard about it and decided the potential risks outweigh any benefits. No matter how careful I may be, something may slip through the cracks and end up helping our enemies. I do not want that to happen.

I expect to check in when I go on leave and then again when I'm about to leave Iraq. In the meantime, I will try to write down some of my thoughts offline, to be posted after the deployment. I hope to resume regular blogging once I get back to the States for good.

The site will remain up and you can still email or write me, and I will respond. I'm sorry if my decision disappoints, but I'm doing what I think is right.

Saludos para todos. Hooah!"

Another one bites the dust.
Did someone say that truth was the first casualty of war.
It's too bad that so many are so willing to give up this ground to the enemy, and not even put up a fight. It's kind of strange, I never would have believed it had I not seen this myself. Is it that they don't see the enemy out here on the web, do they think that they are not having an impact, do they really believe that wars are won with bullets and hummvee's.
What can I say, I am dismayed. My spirit hollowed that so many would abandon the field. All I can say is that your absence will be felt and it can only embolden our enemies to fight harder. Are we so week so afraid of ourselves that we must stay silent to appease our own fears. Someday the history will be written, pray that they look back on us with wisdom and understanding. Understanding that I must admit today that I lack. Silence never helped any cause, how will it help ours.
