RUMSFELD OFFERS FREEDOM’S THANKS TO KYRGYZSTAN FORCES
J. Grant Swank, Jr.
"’The good Lord willing, those two countries … will be on a path of freedom, a path where people have the right and privilege of helping to guide and direct their country, and the economic opportunities that come from free economic systems,’ US Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said. ‘And you’ll be able to look back and know in your hearts you were a part of that.’"
Rumsfeld was speaking to US troops in Kyrgyzstan. In his tour of the Middle East and Central Asia, Rumsfeld accented his appreciation to servicemembers for their "’significant role in the war on terrorism and in improving the lives of the Afghan and Iraqi people,’" reports Kathleen T. Rhem of American Forces Press Service.
Rumsfeld saw it as his prime time duty of thanking those who have sacrificed for the freedom spread in other countries. In truth, he was the representative of United States President George W. Bush who initiated liberties elsewhere with Operation Iraqi Freedom a little over two years ago.
Speaking at Manas Air Base, Rumsfeld lauded the efforts of both civilians and military personnel in combating killers international. The base to which he spoke is known informally as Ganci Air Base, tagged that after Peter Banci, a senior New York fireman brought down on September 11, 2001.
While Democrats in America are still remembered for their hate speech syndrome during the last presidential campaign as well as their unpatriotic resistance to anything the President offered in the way of freedom spread, servicemembers continue to continue.
While European heads of state balked at the President’s push for liberties elsewhere, starting with toppling Saddam Hussein, US troops joined with other free nations’ forces to wage the three-week-win war that initiated democracy planting in the New Iraq.
It was to those persons who remained true to patriotism at its best that Rumsfeld spoke. Those in Kyrgyzstan are support forces to militia in Iraq and Afghanistan. They are very much needed daily to ward off murderers global.
"A cold rain was beating on the tent’s roof and the roar of jets could be heard overhead as Rumsfeld looked out into a sea of tan uniforms and told the 400-plus troops assembled that their mission supporting efforts in Afghanistan and Iraq is vital.
"’It’s not an easy thing to move from despotism to a democracy,’ Rumsfeld said, referring to Iraq’s efforts to build its first freely elected government. ‘But they’re making good headway.’"
It’s that kind of patience-in-time that reminds the US-Coalition that eventually the future will thank the present for diligence. There are those who want perfection yesterday. Those locked into reality know that whatever is worthwhile calls for sacrifice over time.
"The secretary met with the country’s acting president, Prime Minister Kurmanbek Bakiyev, who assumed the presidency March 28 after former President Askar Akayev fled the country to Moscow after a bloodless coup March 24. Rumsfeld also met with the acting ministers of defense and state. National elections are scheduled for July.
"At a joint news conference after the meetings, Bakiyev said the United States will continue to have use of Manas Air Base. Through a translator, he said he assured Rumsfeld that ‘the Kyrgyz Republic will comply with all the international agreements we have signed.’"
"Rumsfeld thanked Kyrgyzstan for continued support in the war on terror and said he told the country’s interim leadership ‘that the United States is wishing them well in the important work that they’re engaged in in building a stable and modern and prosperous democracy.’"
So it is that America continues its moral high road for setting free humans who have been held in bondage by despots who cared for nothing more than their own selfish ends. Rumsfeld was there on site to support those who commit to holding fast the freedom spread.
