My Heartfelt Prayer

    The scenes from Teheran and Tel Aviv
        do in these blood-soaked knees 

    May this new war end
        as fast as ‘twas begun

It's a scary time, esp. in the Middle East. Yet it can spread rapidly, like wildfire. Thanks, Yellow Rose.

We should all strive for peace but Obama's 3 terms caused this and Israel has no choice. From what I understand most Iranians do not like the Mullahs. I feel bad for them

Peace is the only winner from war. We pray for peace. When it comes, we pray it lasts more than a generation or brief cycle in time...there have been many great civilizations on this earth that have come and gone -- when will we learn? My heart is with Israel. Many terrorist cells now in the US I suspect. Thank you Democrats....

You mean 'Democ-RATS, don't you? ... Ironic that Fetterman turns out to be their last man standing. ~ gw
