Chris Stevens a Hero of the Arab Spring

Listened to President Obama's remarks on the killings in Libya, and to Hillary's. Their thoughts represent well the spirit of America.

Hillary Clinton suggested the martyred be remembered. May they. Chris Stevens fought for freedom by diplomacy, not with weapons, and yet he died in violence. He helped forge a free nation in a place where a dictatorship once stood. Bless him, and bless his memory.

We have lost a hero of the Arab Spring. May I learn more about the others who have fallen, as well, and appreciate them for the sacrifice of their lives. Those of us who cherish the free nations that have arisen from the Arab Spring, and who hope earnestly that they might survive,  those of us who cherish the ties and friendship America established with these nations, we lament the loss of these good lives.
