Quote of the Week

Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives.. you are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side here in this country of ours.. You the mothers who sent their sons from far away countries wipe away your tears. Your sons are now living in our bosom and are in peace. Having lost their lives on this land they have become our sons as well.

--Mustafa Kemal Atatürk 

Red is still the colour of a soldier's blood

The way I see it, red is always the colour of soldiers' blood, no matter their sexual preference. Does homosexuality diminish one's heroism or taint one's sacrifice? Of course it doesn't. 

Those who serve our country deserve to hold their heads up high, the way they uphold our flag and constitution in times of peace and war. 

Soldiers fight for us, and we should fight for them.


That's all.
