Woman enraged against the war

I have 6 close friends in Iraq and Afghanistan, a few more acquintances there. One of my acquintances was injured. My friend from highschool, Melanae, has an older brother, Shane, who was in the 82nd Airborne. He was hit by an IED and he lost his left leg and left hand. Let me just say THIS WAR NEEDS TO END. I don't care how but it needs to end. Yes the government is saying we are making progress and such and such but from my friends I hear we aren't doing much of anything but losing our men. In reality I can't handle losing a friend, not again. I know this is selfish but I can't do it.
I was also struck this morning by what was said on Good Morning America. They said that the flooding and fires throughout the country were "biblical." Now I don't know how much I agree but it is starting to get a little scary. There are floods and fires and then a war in the Middle East that really isn't going to have an end unless we do something drastic. My dad wants to get everyone except the army out of Iraq, disarm everyone, and have the world ignore any wrongdoings the army may need to do in order to accomplish it's goal. I don't have a solution. As much as I want to blame Bush, blame Congress, or blame Clinton I can't. Just like I can't blame anyone yet for Jason's death. It leaves this little wound in my heart. I've come to the conclusion that the little wound is why people are enraged by things like war. We need someone to blame for closure. Personally, I am trying to find that closure in God. I am trying hard.
Pray for Shane, pray for all of my friends in Iraq/Afghanistan, and pray for everyone fighting and their families back home. They need it most of all.

These are just 5 of my friends in Iraq/Afghanistan if you want to pray for them by name:
