9/11 & God's Soldiers! Poem by Tom Zart

9/11 & God's Soldiers!



They serve to preserve our forefathers dreams,
Prayers, visions and determination.
Risking all in pursuit of fulfillment of duty
To God, freedom, faith, honor and nation.

Despite dismemberment, death and loneliness
Patriots enlist to defend our flag.
With honor, faith, purpose and love
They battle the sadistic who murder and brag.

Throughout man's history as a creature of Earth
War has always plagued our peace and expectance
Greed, hate, fear, envy, death and rage
Have overruled rapture, trust and repentance.

David was a soldier who lived by his faith
Which gave him the will to become brave.
He stood up to terror and toppled the giant
Leaving Goliath headless and alone in his grave.

David's call thrives in hearts of soldiers today
Shielding liberty from the warmongers of hell.
Facing down evil refusing to submit
Ensuring freedom and justice are alive and well.

America has survived all deeds to destroy
Knowing the cruelty and heartbreak of war.
We who remain Must help keep her free
For any who can tramp no more!

Our 'forefathers' were Deists at best and wanted fervently to keep religion out of government. Our response to 9/11 was a shameful invasion and occupation of an innocent country, killing at least 100,00 civilians. We continue to kill at a rate of 90%+ civilians in our 'holy war'. War is never the answer. Glorifying soldiers only stokes the fire of ignorance and violence.
