The difference...

C.I.R. Press Editorial

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Here in the US we have anti-war students and activists, that hate the military and the job they perform. We have a Congressman who calls them murderers, “killing in cold blood.”

In Israel:

“Amidst all the firing, we still got to work and started doing Shiatsu, Reflexology, and all kinds of Massage on the soldiers. Sometimes it was so fast and awkward, it was just done on a thin mattress we brought laid over rocks on the ground or on the cots they slept on.”

“No one wanted to stop though. We wanted to see the next smiling relieved face as we helped these soldiers both physically, mentally, and spiritually. Unfortunately, it was time to go though and we had to wish our new friends goodbye. The last thing we all said to each one of them was watch over yourself. I pray to whoever is out there that they do.”

Wow, talk about “SUPPORTING THE TROOPS!”
