Dear Mr. Obama

I'm quite late on commenting

I'm quite late on commenting on this video, unfortunately; but fortunately, I have seen it, on Tuesday morning, 11-11-08 from the Philippines. I do not know who produced this video, unless it came out of Fillmore. It is an excellent piece of work, as I must attest to. The only issues to be taken in this video would be the filibuster that would provoke the differences between the reasons "why" we went into Iraq, and freedom of the Iraq people, prevention of more torture, death, genocide, government reconstructing assistance, costs of the Iraq war in itself, the ongoing deaths and dismemberment of the brave and devoted US soldiers going to Iraq three, four, sometimes five times on tour, and the enormous costs outweighing the benefits of the USA to be there in the first place and more questions than answers could arise. Campaign rhetoric can only be talk, and really, nobody wants the US to be there at all. Not anymore, anyway. This going after Bin Laden is turned into a total mess and involves tribes that once were fighting each other for centuries, now collectively turned on the US for being in the Mideast anyway, then when and if we leave, they turn back to fight each other all over again. We gained nothing. But did we? Listen carefully what the soldier in the video said...he was there. He knows. He spoke directly to those Iraq people. Maybe some resistance fighters and terrorists, too, who really knows? But two sides can come out on this one, but to me...I prefer to state it was not a mistake to be in Iraq. The mistake was that it took longer so far, than WWII to get over with in both the Pacific and European Theaters put together, and it's still ongoing with increasing costs sinking the US economy.
