I don’t typically go on rants or express my political beliefs, but I just have to get this off my mind.
As some of you know, I’m active duty Army. Aside from that, I am a medic.
I’ve spent 3 years of my life overseas in both Afghanistan and Iraq.
I’ve seen some pretty atrocious sites caused by war, from both sides.
I’ve picked up blown up body parts of friends and I’ve saved the
lives of guys who were trying to kill me and my guys right before I was
keeping them from their 72 virgins or whatever they believe awaits them
on the other side.
Here is an unbiased truthful view to the Syrian refugee situation.
My first deployment to Iraq, in 2006, my unit voluntarily ran a children’s burn clinic outside of the FOB.
It was a constant target for attacks. You would think that people
wouldn’t shoot mortars or rockets at their own children, but you would
be wrong.
We saw hundreds of children, from infants to 18 year olds.
The overwhelming majority of the kids we saw (90% or better) were clear cases of abuse.
These parents were literally dunking their kids in boiling water, or
throwing hot chai at their kids faces… Yes, we’re talking about babies,
toddlers, kids not even old enough to understand why their parents would
do these things to them.
HUNDREDS of kids… We saw quite a few of these kids that were sexually abused, both girls and boys.
Their parents acted if nothing was wrong with this, even when confronted by our doctors.
This is the mentality of their society, not the viewpoint of a few
individuals… these beliefs have been accepted to the vast majority of
these people.
Many were educated, well dressed, well spoken men, but yet, they
still raped their own children, and kept chai boys (if you don’t know
what that means, google it.)
During that deployment, we also captured the 3rd largest EFP cache that had ever been captured.
There were hundreds of copper plates, homemade explosives,
fake curbs to house the EFP’s, hundreds of mortars and rockets and
howitzer rounds, even an anti-aircraft gun.
All of these things came from one place, Syria. Almost every
single IED or EFP we found or hit could be traced back to Syria… A lot
of the terrorists we captured were from SYRIA… Imagine that.
