I served in the US Military as an Infantry Squad Leader and was tasked with training and employing 12 men in Fallujah, Iraq.
My experiences in Iraq have greatly changed my perspective on the importance of friends, family, and the value of a strong community.
I am a pre-law student at Georgetown University, and undecided about the next president of the United States.
We have found ourselves in this paradox: it was in violation of the natural rights of the Iraqi people that we entered, but it will also be in violation of their natural rights to leave them with no security. Honestly, I do not know what is the best - or right - move.
