Terrorism again strikes America, 4 Marines dead

By Lynn R. Mitchell

Four American Marines woke up Thursday morning, got dressed, ate breakfast, and left home to drive to work, never to return. They had families. They were part of the community. They were part of our military.

Thursday’s terrorism attack on two U.S. Armed Forces recruiting centers in Chattanooga, Tennessee, by a lone 24-year-old gunman named Mohammod Youssuf Abdulazeez again points out the danger to America and the reason we need to be ever vigilant (see 4 Marines killed in attacks on Chattanooga military facilities). Four U.S. Marines, dead. Four families, shattered.

Long war

By Wayne Ozmore

We are in the long war with the jihadists—it will not, repeat not, end in our lifetime or our children’s lifetime. It is about our way of life and our belief in God. That is why we will be targeted in perpetuity. It is why we fight — to defend our God-given rights so that this nation shall not perish from the face of this earth. No apology necessary.
