WHAT A GREAT VIDEO: 1ST I.D. "VIPER COMPANY" KORENGAL, AFGHANISTAN--NBCS RICHARD ENGLE REPORTS

The real name is Bravo Company but these GIs in Afghanistan prefer to be called "Viper Company" of the 1st I.D.

In this video with NBCs Richard Engle reporting, you see "Viper Company" in a fierce firefight with the Taliban in Afghanistan and you even see them take time to eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

Who are these young men? How could anyone not be interested in what our GIs are doing in Afghanistan and Iraq?

I'll tell you who. People who have no vested interest in the wars in Afghanistan or Iraq because they don't have a family member in the United States military. That is who.

Or they are people who have never served in any branch of the United States military. That is who.

If there were a draft like we had with World War II, the Korean War and the Vietnam War, you would suddenly see a lot more interest in the wars on the part of the media because the people of America would be demanding more coverage rather than the petty political bickering that goes for news all day long on the three cable news outlets.

THE IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN WARS HAVE BECOME "THE FORGOTTEN WARS"
