Heroic Soldier with her Dog

Story

An animal rescue group on Sunday picked up a U.S. soldier’s adopted dog from Iraq, ending the soldier’s weeks-long struggle to send the animal to her Minnesota home.

Sgt. Gwen Beberg adopted Ratchet after soldiers rescued him from a burning pile of trash in May.

Operation Baghdad Pups, which said the U.S. military prevented its first attempt to take Ratchet the dog on October 1, picked up the animal in Baghdad with military clearance and flew it to Kuwait on Sunday.

The dog is expected to be flown to Washington on Monday, and if a veterinarian determines it is healthy, sent to Sgt. Gwen Beberg’s home state on Wednesday, Baghdad Pups publicist Larry Garrison said.

Commentary

Ok seriously people how do you think this looks to all the Iraqis, Arabs and Muslims around the world? Thousands of people suffer and die every day in Iraq and instead of working on helping them after destroying their country Americans are more concerned about saving a DOG! I don’t think I need to say much about this as it is apparent that saving a dog is more important than human life.
