Yemen War Chat Aftermath - As the mother of a brave young sailor serving right now on one of those ships in Yemen, I am horrified and dismayed at both the level of incompetence and self-serving responses of those involved. These are real people putting their lives on the line, not a game. Each day when I watch the news I am horrified, but never more so when I see stories where the brave men and women of the miltary are put at risk like this. Please pray for our brave men and women and hold these so-called leaders accountable.

As awful as this is for all sane people, it must be absolutely horrendous for you. I wish your son or daughter fair winds and following seas, and, if sanity prevails, competent leadership.

The tragedy is that the people with the power truly do not understand that this is, in fact, reality and not a game. This is why it stymies me that so many people elected a bad actor who believes his own shtick to be our president.

Please thank your son for his service. It is so, so appreciated.

Debra - We share your fear and outrage. Our sons and daughters deserve a better government than this one.

With every decision this regime makes, they confirm that they are not and never have been pro-life. In their deranged quest to occupy another country, they will not value the lives of service members. The absolute silence on the recent tragic weather events where lives and livelihoods were lost reminds us of the heartlessness. I hope your child survives this operation and returns home safe and sound.

Thank your son for his service and may he remain safe. This so-called administration only excels in stupidity and cruelty. Grown men playing at war like it is one big video game.
