Ahmadullah: We all know why this story, and the way we contributed to getting Ahmadullah and his family safely out of harm's way after dedicated service to our military members, makes us all smile. He and his family are safe from those who would harm him because he helped us Americans; because we followed through on our promises and commitments as a nation and as individual citizens of that nation to do the right thing; we mutually supported heroes from among us and thereby enabled the support of heroes who are not from among us. As a group of Americans we exercised good character and we did the right thing. Ain't it awesome when that happens?!
I think this basis of good character is why all of us here at The Bulwark feel like a family...we are on a mission to interact with and understand one another so that it is possible for us, and for our country, to do the right thing; its why we are all so opposed to the people and the forces that would wrest that good character away from us and our fellow citizens. It's not that we want others in the world to see us as that shining beacon on the hill...it's that WE want to BE that shining beacon on the hill for our families, for our communities and country, and for all those Ahmadullahs out there.
