Why did God let my son die in Iraq?

Answer 1

Why your son went to Iraq? If you love him or if he love his life why he went to Iraq ?
Allah Knows everything believe him he will give him a good place in heaven if he is right

Answer 2

Why is there no God?
Was your previous question. If that is what you believe then why do you think God let your son die?
If you did lose your son no matter where that is a sad event and I'm sorry for your loss.
Your son was there to fight in a war. He was there with a gun. He is not the only person to die.
Why did God let American soldiers kill Iraqi women and children?
He has a plan and no one dies a second before or after there time. We all have to die somewhere, somehow.
Your son made his choices. I would blame Bush rather than God.
Bush is the person who sent your son to Iraq to fight in an unjust war. Bush is the one with the agenda. Bush is the one making Americans live in fear. Should your question not be.

Why did Bush let my son die in Iraq?

To be a soldier and fight for your country is a very honerable and brave thing. But it should be to defend your country, not to steal pipe lines and for money. Iraq never once posed any threet to America or ever attacked them, or ever had any intentions too. Bush is using this war to divert americans from the real issues. Heck he has not even managed to clean up New Orleans yet but has just anounced he is going to be spending a "further" 7 billion plus in sending soldiers to Afganistan. Now that they dont have the Russians to use to control there population with fear, they are using the middle east. Bush is the one who should be questioned.
Sorry for your loss, sorry for the loss of over 30,000 Iraqi citizens.

Answer 3

Your son was a patriot, and as a veteran I respect that.

God allows free will-------------He died because of the choice of an enemy to our countries armed forces.

And if you think God does not care-------I am a believer and I would do all I can to comfort you. I cannot imagine your loss.
I really dont know what to say. So I will just say that I hope you will have fond memories of your son, and that he will be remembered by others, including my self as a man who made the most noble of sacrifices, to preserve the freedom that we so often take for granted. God bless you and yours, and if there is anything I can do let me know.

Answer 4

Peace!
I understand your sense of loss and I am really sorry. I really can't give you an explanation to your question. God works in strange and mysterious ways. Maybe you should ask God to help you accept your son's loss. You also have to take care of yourself. I am sure there many things you can do so you can move on with your life.

Answer 5

I live in the Middle East and i know how bad is the situation in Iraq.
Everyone in the world will die one day, there is no one person will live for ever.
death is like going to the next level of eternal life.
U may be with ur son in a car and an accident happen, or he may get sick, or just passed away.
it will happen one day.

i am very sorry because it happenes in this way.

Answer 6

God loves him and all of the other soldiers who have died and He wanted him close to Him. It was your baby's time whether it was by the hand of someone in another country or if he'd been in a car accident or other life ending event. Be comforted that his fight is over and he is at peace. My daughter is in the Army and if she is sent to Iraq and her life is lost I will grieve for MY loss but would not question God's will. I have a brother in law who is going on his second tour over there. I have FAITH and in that faith I have found my solace. Cry your tears and in time your pain will become bearable. I believe that the Lord does not give you more than you can handle. Please believe in His wisdom and trust Him.

Answer 7

I know what it feels like to loose a child to death. When I lost my daughter, I was angry at the world and God too. I hope this scripture helps. Good luck and God bless.

(New International Version)
James 1:2-8
Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does

Answer 8

God did not "let" your son die in Iraq. Your son chose to fight in the military... sadly that is often the fate of those fighting wars. People die in war.

I am terribly sorry for your loss dear one... but please do not blame God for the actions of man. He and he alone can comfort your heart.
God bless you will be keeping your family in prayer here.

Answer 9

so sorry for your loss Try searching griefnet.(griefnet.org?) There are serious forums for people having lost loved ones from different causes. This is a horrible thing to live through but there is hope.

Answer 10

Go to the beginning, why did God ALLOW the murder of Abel? People choose what they do and some people make bad choices. God doesn't prevent those bad choices.

Isn't it still statistically safer to be a soldier in Iraq than a civilian in Washington D.C.?

Answer 11

I apologize for your lose. A parent should never out live their child. I can sympathize with you I have lost a child also. You should focus on the time you were allowed to share with him. I would also like to thank you for having a son willing and strong enough to fight for freedom and for the USA. Thank you for everything you had to give up so we could live safely.
