American Patriots have been praying for the safe recovery of our missing Weapons Systems Officer since he and his pilot were shot down on Good Friday. Early Easter morning we learned of his safe extraction. We are grateful to God and our President.
I was thinking of how his life will be changed from now on. Will it be for the good, or will he and his family be subjected to hatred, insults, and even threats? Not just from Iranians, but from his own countrymen?
I would imagine that if he had a choice, he'd prefer to live the rest of his life in peace.
Most “heroes” are simply good people who fell into the limelight purely by chance. They'd say, “I was just doing my job” and “I was just following my training.”
And what about all of the heroes in the Iranian theater who risked their lives to locate and extract our Airman? They are heroes. Too. Each of them was willing to give their life to rescue someone they didn't even know.
How about every other member of the Armed Forces who is currently serving in the Iran conflict? They are also just doing their jobs, and risking their lives for their countrymen.
How about every other current and former member of our military? Aren't they just as heroic—going through dangerous and grueling training for years, missing their families while on deployment, and most likely working for less pay than they could earn in the private sector?
And what about those who serve as police officers, firemen, medics, and yes, even ICE agents? They put their lives on the line on a daily basis to help ordinary American citizens, (and even non-citizens.)
Our WSO hero's life is going to change forever. His and his family's faces will be plastered on every newspaper and newscast as “The Easter Miracle.” Everyone will know who they are and want to shake their hands.
But there's a dark side to this newfound fame and fortune. Those with Trump Derangement Syndrome will see him as “a pawn of the military industrial complex,” a “murderer of babies and innocent civilians.” Protestors will line up outside his house, throw rocks at his windows, and burn his car.
Will Iranian sleeper cells set out to assassinate him? Will he and his family have to look over their collective shoulders for the rest of their lives? Will they need new identities in the Witness Protection Program?
If President Trump were to present him with the Medal of Honor in a joint session of Congress, will the Democrats sit on their hands, wear all white, and make catcalls during the ceremony? Will they organize “No Murderers!” protests across the country?
What has happened to the Deranged Minority? Will they ever be able to put aside their hatred and rejoin the American family?
It's time for the Deranged to awaken, whether they're on the streets of America or in our Congress. When something is horrible simply because Trump supports it, you've become a “useful idiot” for those who just want your vote so they can continue to remain in power and loot our Treasury. It's as simple as that.
