It's time for a purple heart for the victims at Ft. Hood and Little Rock! Show your support for our troops by joining us in correcting this outrageous injustice!! Dear Lee, Did you know that the military victims of Islamic jihad terrorism at Ft. Hood and the Little Rock Recruitment Center are not eligible for the Purple Heart? The reason is that our Defense Department is defining these acts as "criminal" acts rather than as acts of "war." In fact, the Ft. Hood massacre was classified as "workplace violence!" This is in keeping with the Obama administration position that terrorists like Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the mastermind of 9/11, are not "enemy combatants" but "alleged criminals." Not only do we strongly disagree with this designation, we find it outrageous and completely unacceptable that those in our armed forces killed by jihadists on our soil are not eligible for the Purple Heart. Do you agree? Would you like to help us correct this injustice? Then log on here and add your name to the Open Letter we will be sending to the chairmen of the House and Senate Armed Services Committees. In the letter, we urge them to pass H.R. 1142, introduced by Rep. Allen West. Here's an excerpt from this letter:
Help us pour tens of thousands of names behind this letter into the Armed Services Committees of both the House and Senate. Let them know the American people are outraged at this injustice and that we expect action!! This is a chance for us to do more than "honor and support our troops" with our words. It only takes moments to add your name—and you can even forward this letter to others you know. Let's take action to correct this injustice today!!
