==Operation Straight Up care packages== In 2007, [[Operation Straight Up]] prepared to distribute care packages called "Freedom Packets" to the U.S. soldiers serving in Iraq as a part of the [[U.S. Department of Defense]]'s [[America Supports You]] program. The packages were slated to include copies of ''Left Behind: Eternal Forces'', which [[The Nation]] responded to by posting a blog entry citing that the game included "kill or convert" violence against non-Christians, and characters shouting "Praise the Lord!" when non-Christians are killed.<ref> {{cite web | title=Kill Or Convert, Brought To You By the Pentagon | url=http://www.thenation.com/blogs/notion?bid=15&pid=220960 | last=Blumenthal | first=Max | date=2007-08-07}}</ref> This prompted [[ABC News]] to contact the Department of Defense.<ref> {{cite web | title=DOD Stops Plan to Send Christian Video Game to Troops in Iraq | url=http://blogs.abcnews.com/theblotter/2007/08/dod-stops-plan-.html | last=Schecter | first=Anna | date=2007-08-15}}</ref> As a result of this controversy, OSU dropped its plans to include the game in the care packages.
