Why Did My Son Have To Die...?

Cindy Sheehan asked President George W. Bush, "Why did my son have to die in Iraq?"
Another mother asked Harry S. Truman, "Why did my son have to die in Korea?"
Another mother asked Franklin D. Roosevelt, "Why did my son have to die at Iwo Jima?"
Another mother asked Woodrow Wilson, "Why did my son have to die in the battlefield of France?"
Yet another mother asked Abraham Lincoln, "Why did my son have to die at Gettysburg?"
And yet another mother asked George Washington, "Why did my son have to die near Valley Forge?"
Then long, long ago, a mother asked, "Heavenly Father, why did my son have to die on a cross outside Jerusalem?"
The answers to all of these are the same:
So that others may have life and dwell in peace, happiness and FREEDOM!
