What SHOULD be in the News Headlines


It's a tough, but heart-warming story...with this picture of John Gebhardt in Iraq.

John Gebhardt's wife, Mindy, said that this little girl's entire family was executed. The insurgents intended to execute the little girl also, and shot her in the head...but they failed to kill her. She was cared for in John's hospital and is healing up, but continues to cry and moan. The nurses said John is the only one who seems to calm her down, so John has spent the last four nights holding her while they both slept in that chair. The girl is coming along with her healing.
He is a real Star of the war, and represents what the Western world is trying to do.

You'll rarely see things like this in the news. The public needs to see such pictures and understand that we're making a difference. Even if it is just one little girl at a time.

We cannot direct the wind but we can adjust our sails...
