Wow.. British soldiers readying themselves for the Iraq's invasion are seating on tanks and praying for peace.. Praying to God, of course. The Devil would be ashamed to listen. Last Updated: Sunday, 16 March, 2003, 16:06 GMT Troops pray for peace The soldiers are praying for peace "All things are in God's hands and he doesn't want you for a sunbeam - he wants you for a soldier. He wants you to fight for truth and offer prayer for justice." Father Nick Gosnell's vestry was a dusty tent, his altar a table with a candle on top, his congregation the 120 men and women of the 3rd Battalion of the Parachute Regiment. They sang: "Though I walk in Death's dark vale, yet will I fear no ill." And although they were asked to pray for peace, on what might well be the last Sunday service before hostilities begin, in Iraq all thoughts were on war. "Our time to shine, to be glorified, is now," the Roman Catholic padre added. And he asked his flock to trust in the Lord, whatever the next few days might bring. 'Faithful "We cannot know the future or what God has in store for us. All we can do is be faithful." Speaking for himself and his two fellow non-combatant padres attached to 16th Air Assault Brigade, Father Gosnell said: "If we are not here next Sunday, it's been a privilege for us to worship with you. "You will see us on the battlefield looking terribly unsoldierly, out of shape and out of place. "Where you are, we will go The 16th Air Assault Brigade has three padres in the Gulf "Wherever we are, never be frightened to ask for help and never be worried about the future whoever and wherever you are." Few, if any, of the soldiers in Kuwait have any time for the anti-war lobby. But there is little doubt many would feel more comfortable if they were more confident of the country's full backing. Father Gosnell does not question the morality of war. "Our job is solely to look after the concerns of the boys and girls who will be fighting," he said. "I don't carry a weapon and I don't fight. We tend to the people who do." >>>>

LOL, foaming at the mouth and over the edge..... tigie, spookie and kenny... Yes they could also be called despicable. And I think ageichie will be making the team.... LOL Eagleburger: Anti-Bush Dems 'Over the Edge,' Carter 'Despicable' Former Secretary of State Lawrence Eagleburger said Monday night that leading Democrats like Sen. Tom Daschle who continue to criticize President Bush as America prepares for war were "going over the edge," adding that the recent conduct of ex-President Jimmy Carter was particularly "despicable." "I must tell you, when we are this close to putting troops in harm's way.... I do think that the Democrats now are close to going over the edge," Eagleburger told Fox News Channel's "Hannity & Colmes." "I must tell you, as far as President Carter is concerned, I think what he has done for some months now is in fact despicable," the former Secretary of State for Bush's father added. In language especially harsh given Eagleburger's Foggy Bottom credentials, the one-time top diplomat continued to slam Carter, recalling, "He did it ten years ago with regard to the first Kuwait war, where he called other leaders around the world and told them not to agree with the first President Bush. He's doing it again." Then Eagleburger reiterated, "I think he is despicable." The former Bush administration official said that while he wouldn't use the word "traitors" to describe Democrats who continue to criticize Bush on the eve of war, he explained, "When you're about to put American troops in harm's way, I think it's time now to call an end to that partisanship." newsmax.com
