Thanks to Americans - and Israelis - Heroes for Giving Their Lives for Us

Today we recognize and honor the sacrifice of all those in uniform who gave their lives for our country. It is impossible to overstate the debt we owe those men and women. Without their willingness to serve and die, the rest of us surely would not be living in the land of the free and the home of the brave.

I would like on this occasion to thank as well the nearly 900 members of the Israel Defense Forces killed since October 23, 2023. They have perished in defense of their own country, of course. 

But they did so in fighting Sharia-supremacist enemies who explicitly seek the destruction of our nation, too. Their loss in advancing what we pray will be Israel’s ultimate victory will help keep such foes from murdering Americans on foreign battlefields, or here at home. 

This is Frank Gaffney.
