War Reporter Benjamin Hall Tells Fox News Sunday He Remembers the Heroes, Not the Horrors: If We Fight Hard For It, Good Will Win

EXCERPT:

HALL: “You know, I was raised Catholic, I was at school, at monastery, every single day I thought about what that meant to me. And along the way, covering wars, I sometimes had moments where I doubted it. You see horrific things and you always ask yourself, you know, what role does God play in a society where this horror happens? But I come out of this with my own injuries, I feel the opposite. I don’t remember the horror that happened to me, I don’t remember the evil. I see all the good. I see the incredible people who came together to get me, to build me back together, to help me. I think that is a sign of God, the pureness of it. It is out there. If we fight hard for that, if we fight hard for the great and the good, it will win. You know, my daughter came to me and I saw her when I was in the car, and I was blacked out and she encouraged me to crawl out of the car and save my life. Yes, that was my daughter and it was about getting home to my family, but that was also an angel that came to me there. And had I been standing and injured in any direction when the third bomb hit, I would be dead or I’d be blind or have serious brain injury, and somehow I walked out of that alive, with my mind back and doing well. And I know I was saved that day. The book is called ‘Saved’ because I was saved by so many people, and by the heavens too.”
