PBS-America At A Crossroad-Please click here to watch the series

I am posting this entry today because this is something you should all go and read/watch. It will give you a better understanding of what our American Soldiers are facing on a daily basis being deployed to Iraq to fight for a country that doesn't want us there and are killing our troops on a daily basis.

Below is a detailed description of what the show consists of and information about each show aired.

America at a Crossroads is a major public television event premiering on PBS in April 2007 that explores the challenges confronting the post-9/11 world — including the war on terrorism; the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan; the experience of American troops serving abroad; the struggle for balance within the Muslim world; and global perspectives on America's role overseas.

Aimed at creating a national dialogue surrounding the crucial issues explored in the series, an extensive media and outreach campaign in more than 25 communities accompanies the series. The campaign features screening events with the filmmakers and their subjects in discussions with United States military personnel, leading policy experts, leaders of the Islamic community, scholars from across the country as well as members of the public. Integrated Web and educational initiatives further extend the campaign.

From freedom fighters in Afghanistan to cold-blooded terrorists

Providing an in-depth look at modern, radical Islamic groups, JIHAD: THE MEN AND IDEAS BEHIND AL QAEDA explores the ideas and beliefs that inspire them, along with the challenges they pose for governments in the Middle East and the West. 

With previously unseen footage and first-hand testimony from those who fought, planned, argued, met or lived with them, this is the inside story of Al Qaeda's three leaders: Osama bin Laden, Ayman al-Zawahiri, and the recently killed leader of Al Qaeda in Iraq, Abu Musab Al Zarqawi.

This film examines how the blood-soaked careers of these three men were driven by an evolving ideology of violence and hatred towards the West.

From the Muslim Brotherhood in the 1940s to Islamic organizations today, the film offers insightful perspectives of Islam from Western and Middle Eastern journalists, U.S. intelligence experts on the frontlines of the fight against Al Qaeda, and friends and contemporaries of Osama bin Laden and his lieutenant Ayman al-Zawahiri.

It is also the story of how the peaceful and noble religion of Islam was distorted by Islamist terrorists in the name of jihad.

Two years in the making, JIHAD: THE MEN AND IDEAS BEHIND AL QAEDA was filmed on location in the Middle East, Sudan, Pakistan, Afghanistan, America and Britain.

Based on extensive original research, the film presents the story of the birth and evolution of Al Qaeda, not through the second-hand reporting of Western journalists, but through powerful testimony from first-hand witnesses.

What is it really like to be a soldier in Iraq?

Filmed in 2005 in some of the most dangerous areas in and around Baghdad, WARRIORS profiles a handful of Army soldiers: five men and one woman.

They range from a squadron leader just weeks into his first combat command to a seasoned sergeant on a night raid in an insurgent hotspot.

WARRIORS opens a compelling, harrowing, and at times humorous, window on some less familiar sides of a soldier's life: a look at who they are, what they do and why.

In this fight against an enemy hidden among the people, a soldier's street level diplomacy is often called on more than the use of his weapon. Contrary to stereotypes, this generation of Army volunteers is better educated on average than the U.S. population at large. And, for many of the American men and women in Iraq, the strongest motivation is a need to serve and feel part of something bigger than themselves.

Above all, WARRIORS reminds us that these soldiers, often merely glimpsed in the news, are our neighbors, with lives they have left behind, many including children and spouses. But their daily work is not in an office. Their jobs require them to face down the daily threat of roadside bombs, sectarian violence and ambush.

During the course of this filming, the soldiers accompanied by the filmmakers were hit by an IED explosion, and then by a rocket-propelled grenade and machine-gun attack. After bringing back their casualties, this same platoon went right back out on patrol. That is part of their reality, part of what it takes to do their job.

Stories and reflections written by American troops

OPERATION HOMECOMING is a unique documentary that explores the firsthand accounts of American servicemen and women through their own words. The film is built upon a project created by the National Endowment for the Arts to gather the writing of servicemen and women and their families who have participated in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Through interviews and dramatic readings, the film transforms selections from this collection of writing into a deep examination of the experiences of the men and women who are serving in America's armed forces. At the same time it provides depth and context to these experiences through a broader look at the universal themes of war literature.

The writing in OPERATION HOMECOMING covers the full spectrum — poetry, fiction, memoir, letters, journals and essays. The stories recounted here are sad, funny, violent and uplifting. Yet each one displays an honesty and intensity that is rarely seen in explorations of the war. Through an extraordinary group of men and women it presents a profound window into the human side of America's current conflicts.

At the core of the writing in OPERATION HOMECOMING is a deep desire by all those who have served in war to come to terms with their experiences.  Throughout the film the servicemen and women, young and old, express a profound hope that people will listen to their stories and try to understand what they have seen.

The anatomy of civil war

Day after day, month after month, scores of bodies litter the streets of Baghdad, many of them tortured and mutilated before they were killed.  To staunch the violence, the U.S. has spent billions of dollars to "stand up" Iraq's new army and police forces and make them capable of bringing security to the country.

GANGS OF IRAQ takes a hard look at how the four-year training effort has failed  and how these coalition-trained forces have themselves been infiltrated by various sectarian militias.  While President Bush's new "surge" strategy is sending thousands of new troops to Iraq to help control the violence convulsing the country, the effort to stand up Iraqi forces and go after the militias remains a centerpiece of America's strategy.  But can it work?

FRONTLINE spent two months in Iraq in the fall of 2006 and was embedded with 11-man U.S. advisory teams working with Iraqi forces. GANGS OF IRAQ tracks the history and events that led to the current sectarian crisis, why the Iraqi elections didn't curb escalating Shia-Sunni sectarianism, and how top Iraqi officials have downplayed or denied the growing sectarian militia forces. By the summer of 2006, the coalition had identified at least 23 militias operating in Baghdad.  Some were small splinter groups or criminal gangs. But others were large sectarian militias, and the two largest, the Badr Corps and the Mehdi Army, remained enetrenched within Iraq's police and army.

This report includes candid interviews with key U.S military involved in training Iraqis, including Gen. David Petraeus who took charge of the training effort in 2004 and then in 2007 took command of  all U.S. forces in Iraq,  and top Iraqis, including Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, Abdul Aziz al-Hakim, leader of the powerful Shia political party, the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq, and Bayan Jabr, who headed Iraq's controversial Ministry of the Interior in 2005-2006.

Richard Perle advocates and defends neoconservative policies

With debate over the war in Iraq still dominating policy discussions, this film follows one of the advocates for the war against Saddam Hussein.

Former Assistant Secretary of Defense Richard Perle travels the globe articulating, defending and debating the neoconservative case for an assertive American foreign policy. Perle finds no shortage of candidates willing to challenge him on these issues.

In London Perle talks to one of the few journalists who has interviewed Osama Bin Laden, Abdel Bari Atwan, editor of Arabic newspaper Al Quds. Atwan complains that US foreign policy has brought destruction to Iraq, and US invasion is the cause of current bloodshed and chaos in Iraq. Perle replies that chaos is caused by Jihadists and Iraqi insurgents, and if they ceased their attacks, Iraq could be successfully reconstructed.

In Afghanistan, Richard Perle visits Rabia Balkhi Girls' School which was named after one of Afghanistan's most famous female poets.  This school in Kabul had a rich tradition of educating women who went on to leadership roles in Afghan institutions. 

It was closed by the Taliban and then nearly destroyed.  It is now open and once again educating young women.  Perle explains that fundamentalist Islamic regimes deny basic rights to half their population – women.

Also in the film, Richard Perle talks with Stacy Bannerman (Military Families Speak Out) at a demonstration against the war in Iraq in Washington DC.  Bannerman's husband served in Iraq and she explains to Perle why she thinks the war was based on lies and why US forces should withdraw. Perle replies that to leave the job unfinished is not fair on those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country.

It is a Sunday afternoon here on the island. We have the sun shining and we have the warm rains coming down. Makes for some lovely rainbows. I attempted to take some pictures but you can not see the sun and rain together. But believe me it is gorgeous.

So what is happening with all of us today. Let's see. My son had his friend over for a sleepover so they are upstairs playing the ps2, nothing new as they are always up their doing that. My daughter(teen) is on her computer which means we won't see her all day unless she needs to eat or drink something-lol. Our little one is trying to bug the boys and play with them but they aren't having that so I think I will take her shopping with me which is what I am going to do today since my hubby is going to play his 360'. I did however get to sleep in and woke to hubby putting away the dishes and loading the dishwasher. He even made waffles and attempted making my coffee-lmao which was sooooo gross....That was nice though.((thanks babe, it is the little things that mean the most to me))

Yesterday my teen and I went and had Starbucks over by Scrap Heaven so of course we stopped in and spent an hour looking at everything. I picked up some new elements-huge cute paperclips with some gorgeous flowers that will be perfect to scrap about my teen. I let her pick out some papers to go with them and we picked up some Aloha stuff to scrap about our adventures here. I also picked up a couple mini albums one pick and one blue. Then I got to thinking about opening my own store front again. I thought if my soldier decides to re-up and they give him a nice bonus I may ask him to invest 5-6 thousand in my own scrap store if we decide to move back home. I mean really, this would be a wonderful thing to do with a nice chunk of the money and it would give me something to do that I absolutley love. Scrapbooking and drinking coffee.

So last night after my hubby's and I date night I stayed up late on the internet researching wholesalers and contacting companies to recieve catty's so I can start mapping out my store costs. I also need to contact my father and ask him if I can use his expertise in carpentery to help me build a couple counters and tables and shelves and maybe knock out some walls and whatnot for my store. I also have to find a place to rent/lease in the area we are looking to move, which I know is a little town on the outskirts of Ft.Leiws. So I have a lot planning/budgeting to do but this is something I would love to try. Both my mother and grandmother opened their own stores and did okay, now I think I want to try. Just follow me along here I am always changing my mind and going back and forth back and forth. But lifes an adventure and I am here for the ride.

Well lunch is about to arrive so I will get off here.
Thanks for stopping by today and visiting me.
Enjoy your day whatever you do today.
Many Aloha's
God Bless

I am seriously torn right now on what to do with this upcoming 17+ month deployment my soldier is about to embark on. Do we stay here on the island and wait it out? Do we go back home to Wa State and surround ourselves with family, and hope they give my soldier Ft.Lewis so we can just stay their once he returns from deployment? If we move will it better then if we stay here? So many things to think about. My soldiers re-enlistment window is open and will he re-up downrange and get the big sogn on bonus or decide to get out and use his teaching degree to start teaching? And if he does re-up would he be sent to Afghanistan right after deployment from Iraq? Is that really worth it, to re-enlist? So many questions with no answers yet. I feel like I am going to explode.

We were sitting at dinner the other, just my husband and I eating dinner when he mentioned to me that someone higher up asked him if he was considering going  green to gold. I said really wow, I too have been wondering that. Since he is already in the process of dropping his warrant packet I thought why isn't he going green to gold. Their is so much room for advancement. So when he got finished telling me what he thought I just left that conversation with whatever he feels he wants to do I will support him. If he wants to remain in and be a lifer then go green to gold. If he wants to get out after this deployment and start teaching then do that. I back him 100% in whatever he wants to do. It was just odd hearing him say that to me when I was thinking it. Must means he is doing something right for his bosses to take notice on his abilities and want him to become a WO or LT.
I will blog the progress of that once he deploys and calls me with the news about what he is going to decide to do.

Meanwhile I will wait and continue to rack my brain on if we should remain here or go home. I already did the pro and con list, that did not help. So I guess the decision will just come to me one day. And I will know the right thing to do.

If it is not one thing then it is another. Just the life of being a military wife.

Did you happen to catch the news or read on the internet about the new 15 month deployments for our US Army Soldiers?  Announced Wednesday by Defense Secretary Robert Gates, the Army is adding three months to the standard yearlong tour for all active-duty soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan, an extraordinary step aimed at maintaining the troop buildup in Baghdad...the troop buildup would last until next April. Army faced harsh choices: Either send units to Iraq with less than 12 months at home, or extend tours. Either way the soldier gets screwed. All this is being done in order to keep the current troop buildup in Baghdad. And why do they need to maintain this level of soldiers, well because four years with our troops on the ground they still have not stabilized Baghdad and do not have the Iraqi governement running their own country.....and our soldiers get to be the puppets in this game. It is gut wrenching to think that families are now being forced to endure 15 months of seperation, field training which is usually 2-3 months before they delpoy and let's not mention being kept in Iraq longer then 15 months.

The longer tours will affect about 100,000 soldiers currently in Iraq and Afghanistan, plus untold thousands more who deploy later. It does not affect the Marine Corps or the National Guard or Reserve. "Our forces are stretched, there's no question about that," Gates said. Interesting that they know our troops are depleted and stretched thin yet they enforce this new 15 month deployment on them. What is the soldier ready to break think about this. Or the couple that has spent their entire marriage apart due to training and deployments back to back, how does that soldier go on. And we thought a lot of marriages were failing now I can hardly wait to see what this new stress adds to our military marriages and lives. It is already hard enough maintaining a 12 month seperation and keep the flames alive now add another three-six more months to that. To top it off the stress of not knowing if your soldier will make it home to you. I expect a lot of wives will become deeply depressed and fustrated and that will most likely lead to alot of children being caught in the middle. One huge change like this 15 month deployment spirals into bigger things for the military families.

Some of you out their are saying well look at the good part of this your soldier gets an extra 1,000 a month for every month he stays past 12 months. Well whoop de fucking do. Hey soldier risk your life beyond 12 months and we are going to reward you with 1,000 a month. What soldier wouldn't want that right? Average out what our soldiers make per day and what they have to endure to make this misseley extra pay and then tell me if paying our men and women an extra 1,000 a month is a good thing. How can anyone even mumble words like this anymore?

Well I am not going to go on and go about this. It gets me highly upset. But just know that if your loved one was being played like a pawn in chess game you too would be upset. I will be blogging more about this sublect in a later entry.

Please go get informed about Iraq and what is happening. It really effects us all and all our communties.

And remember when you see a soldier in uniform tell him Thank-You and and shake his hand.

Many Alohas

Today started out like any other weekend. Wake up to the kids downstairs watching cartoons. Make my 12 cups of coffee. Feed the cats and clean out their litter box. Make the kids breakfast. Pick out their clothes and set them on their beds. Have them brush their teeth. And then sit down with my hubby and figure out what we are going to do with the family for the day.

Today on post if a Family Fun Day. They will have bounce houses and food booths. Games and information booths set up. But the thing about this is that we attended last year and we ended up spending way to much money on rides and games and food.
So this year we decided not to take the kids to this and do something else with them.

Last night we took the kids to Bridge to Terabithia....and it was a really good movie. I cried. My son said he almost cried and my hubby said he almost cried. A good family movie to rent or buy---
Jess Aarons had to be the Fastest runner at Lark Creek Elementary School, the best, but when he was challenged by Leslie Burke, a girl, that was just the beginning of a new season in Jess's life. Leslie and her parents were new comers to the rural community where Jess Lived, and were thought to be a bit odd, for they didn't even own a TV, though their house was filled with books. Some-what to Jess's surprise, he and Leslie became friends, and the worlds of imagination and learning that she opened to him changed him for ever. It was Leslie's idea to create Terabithia, their secret Kingdom in the woods where they reigned supreme. There no enemy - not their teacher Monster Mouth Meyers, their schoolmates Gary Fulcher and Janice Avery, Jess's Four sisters, or even Jess's own fears and Leslie's imaginary foes - could defeat them. The Legacy that Leslie finally brought to Jess enabled him to cope with the unexpected tragedy that touched them all.

Alright so tomorrow is Easter which btw {Happy Easter}. We are having the kids go on a treasure hunt for their baskets, even our teenager has to hunt for hers. Yes, of course she still gets a basket. Even though she is almost 16 she LOVES getting a basket and I LOVE making them for her. Then friends are coming over for a ham dinner with the trimmings. And two of my husbands single soldiers that have become like family to us. So tomorrow shall be a wonderful day with family and friends.  I will take pictures and try to post a few.

Not to much else to report on the homefront. I know you are all following the veto going back and forth in congress right now, right? And that the National Gaurd is being called upon*again* by the thousands to go back to Iraq-arghhhhhhhhhh!

Enjoy your weekend.
It is a fabulous sunny day here and we are off to go enjoy it.
Aloha

Target is coming to Hawaii they are planning to build their store in Kapolei by 2009-woohoo. Finally decided to open up shop in Kapolei which is right across the Honolulu Advertiser building.  The area will also contain a lot of small stores and eateries to create a new shopping complex. Now if they could only bring one of my other all time favorite stores-IKEA to the island, we will be set!

So that is pretty good about Target. I love Target. My all time favorite places to spend my husband's hard earned money. Can't wait for the grand opening. I will be one of the first in line.

Yesterday while the kids were playing outside and I was tending to my flowers a neighbor came barreling out of her house and over to her next door neighbors house. Screaming at her neighbor and getting in her face. Now this is a trashy horrible mother and what people would consider the typical Army wife to be well this and more. She starts screaming at her neighbor with a huge crowd looking on. The women being screamed at points and says get off my property you are on my sidewalk. The women screaming doesn't budge just stands there with her arms crossed. This women LOVES to start stuff in our Ghetto neighborhood her on post so really this is nothing new to anyone. But I stood there watching and waiting. Finally the women being screamed at YELLS leave my sidewalk NOW! The women retreats but with foul language coming out of her mouth. Meanwhile there are about 20 kids watching and listening to all this. So the typical military wife starts smoking and cussing at carrying on like a inmature person and this and that and blah blah blah. Telling the kids around her and her own kids STAY AWAY from thatbitch and that house and those kids. You know what  where does she even have the nerve to come barreling out her house to get in someone's face about their child when she herself sits inside oblivious to what her own children are doing outside UNSUPERVISED. I was really hoping the neighbor that was getting screamed at by this insane women would have called the MP'S because I was ready to go over and let the MP'S know that this women was sitting inside her house with her door shut while her children were running loose and she went over and started the confrontation. But she did not call them and so I went on tending to my flowers.

A few months back we put ourselves on the waiting list to move. We are now number 18 down from 46. When our number comes up I will take anything they offer as long as they get me out of this GHETTO they put us in. You know to tell you the truth we need to be living in Officer Housing. Where you do not have to deal with this enlisted bullshit and ghetto living. Sorry to offend anyone that is enlisted.
Ok that was my rant for the day about Army life. Poor white trash military wives that do not watch their own kids and start crap to just to start it.

To end this entry today I am leaving you with a snorkle spot for those on the island-

Snorkeling at Shark's Cove North Shore

Just after passing Waimea Bay coming from on the Kamemehamea Highway you come across a great snorkel spot. Just across the highway from Foodland is Shark's Cove. With the high surf of the winter months Shark's Cove is just a few jagged rocks sticking out of the ocean. In the summer the cove opens up into a wonderful sheltered sea creature haven. Both snorkelers and scuba divers swarm Shark's cove everyday.

Coming from the west you have to enter the parking via the second entrance, its a one-way moving east to west. If you arrive early enough there should be parking left within this area. However, if you find yourself without a place to park don't fret. There is another parking lot just before the firestation to the west and also road parking to the east of the Shark's Cove lot.

Once there you will see a large pennisula sticking out into the ocean wrapping from left to right. This is wat creates the cove. The left side of the cove is very shallow and really nice to just sit around in and relax. You may also want to start here if you have smaller children who haven't snorkeled much before. There is a sandy entrance and the shallow water will give oyu a little more peace of mind.

On the right hand side of the cove it gets much deeper. This is the side that opens to the ocean. Be careful here, strong currents can sometimes pop up and pull you out. Just be sure to check with those more experienced people around you. This deeper half has a huge amount of fish, turtles, and if you look cose enough eels.

There is a tug of war going on between Bush and Congress on who will be the last man standing on the Iraq War debate. While Bush is asking for another 96 BILLION in new money for Iraq and Afghanistan. I find it mind boggling why their is even a fight on this matter. Bush should sign the bill proposed for a pull-out date and let our troops come home. With troops now being extended *cough* again and again and troops getting deployed early to "help" combat the flair ups doesn't Bush see their is NO VICTORY in Iraq. Does Bush not realize that America is getting fed up with this administration and their distasteful tactics in Iraq. I guess it is going to take a slap on his face to make Bush finally wake-up and see that nobody is supporting him and his war.  I will proudly sit by and support/encourage anything brought to the table by Congress to cut off funding Iraq and bring our troops home. And before I get 100+ emails about how cutting off funding will lead to our troops not having what they need to fight in Iraq-THEY ALREADY DON'T HAVE WHAT THEY NEED TO FIGHT IN IRAQ!
So please come at me with a different stance then that-Thank you.

Like many other wives and parents I will be anxiously awaiting to see what happens with this new push from Congress to get a withdrawl date and FINALLY bring our troops home. It is sort of like taunting a child with a new toy. Saying here have this toy and then ripping it out their hands and saying nah I was kidding. Then handing it to them again and saying ok here you go you can have this toy. Then ripping it from them again and saying just kidding. You would find that a little cruel wouldn't you? Well that is how I and many other wives feel about what Bush and Congress do with our soldiers and their lives. It is a life of pure turmoil and hell for our soldiers and for us back at home actually supporting the troops.
And no supporting our troops is not slapping a fucking yellow ribbon on your car and driving around saying I support our troops. That is a lame ass way to show you support them, a easy way for you to think your supporting them. But then just carry on with you day to day life not worried about if a soldier returns home to his wife and child. Or comes home half mangled and can not work anymore. Will you then support this soldier and his family? Things to think about when words like I support the troops come out your mouth. And while you sit there and maybe get mad that in the same breath I type this I am according to you bashing the troops do not forget I am here on the home frontlines doing the actual supporting. Like I have mentioned time and time again, you can honestly NOT SUPPORT the Iraq war but SUPPORT the troops. Please feel free to click on the button on my side bar and read how this can be done.

I can only hope and pray that this will be the finale deployment to Iraq for my soldier. That when he deploys this year we find out the troops are coming home in 2008. And we don't have to worry about him going back.

Ok I said more then I wanted to. But heck these are my thoughts and my feelings right. And that is why I have this blog for 4 years now.

Thank you for kindly gracing my page. If I got you a little upset, ask yourself why? And if I got you excited ask yourself why?

God Bless

Well this is a just random entry for me this morning. I am about to head to Starbucks and ScrapHeaven. A new scrapbook store that opened over by Starbucks and Costco.
I went and checked it out last week and I LOVED it!
So I'm heading over there this morning to grab some new papers-stickers-and a couple themed packages of the beach. Since we have been taking the kids quite often to the North Shore to boggie board I thought I would start a mini-book of their times with daddy. That way when he deploys they can look though it and remember all the fun times they had with him. I have some wonderful pitures of them too. Plus I think I will make doubles of the pictures and let them make their own. Get those creative jiuces flowing.
Yesterday we were out with the kids. We stopped by the Fun Factory and let them use their VIP cards on some games. Stopped and had ice cream. Went to Wally World and bought a new trampoline for the backyard. Hubby bought a new dart-board. I got some new flowers and a new bbq. We're going to have some cook-outs with my hubby's soldiers and their wives before the guys deploy so I am attempting to make our backyard a nice place to hang out. Not only for us adults but the kids also.
Since we started our own FRG within my hubby's section{long story}. We have 23 soldiers and half with wives/kids. So this could get interesting. LOL. But hey who said I wasn't up for the challenge. I love helping people so doing our own FRG is great for me. I took the FRG leadership classes in Germany and have my certificates, so I am ready. I get to keep the single soldiers families in the loop, the wives to remain calm and informed and just be here if anyone needs anything while their soldier is deployed. And since we have about 10 of these soldier/wives that have not been through a deployment, well they will have tons of questions and want answers. So these cook-outs will be a great way to bring us all together and build the support system before the guys leave for a year! Hence me fixing up the backyard and getting it ready.

Okay well not a lot of time this morning to blog. But I will tomorrow. Since our wonderful President FINALLY decided to go to Walter Reed and see what all the fuse about and*cough* have a photo opt. But hell he already knew our soldiers we're not getting adequate treatment. But that is for tomorrrow's blog.

Aloha Saturday. I hope this day finds you in good spirits.
And if your soldier is deployed you will get to hear his voice today.
God Bless
