I urge all to refrain from pointing fingers and reducing yourselves to acts you may soon regret. I understand the above Sharck .... The two main US policies that are seen in the Arab world as unacceptable, is 1- favoritism with the Jewish State over the Palestinians who reside in Gaza and the West Banks. And 2- a continuation of the bombing of Iraq, 10 years after their attempt of annexing Kuwait. As an American Christian, I find the above truly offensive. You attempt to hide under the cover of "not ruffling feathers" your one sided slant. The fact is that IRAQ is one of the most passionate backers of terrorism on this planet and funds most smaller terrorist states; they are second only to the PLO in their declared hatred of the US. America needs to do what our enemies have already done .. engage in war .... not in listening to foreigners defend our enemies and make this "our fault" !!! More for your reading pleasure ....

Sharck, My heart goes out to you for your loss. A young man graduated at the top of his class here at the School of Management. He did an internship in Manhattan at one of the Financial houses. Then was hired full time a year ago. Nobody knows where he is. I will never trade another stock without thinking of him. The world has lost many bright stars in this act of violence. My losses and gains in the market are insignificant, in the past and the future. Ward

Thank You Canada: From Dealer on Volty's thread: Read this and soak it in subject: A TRIBUTE TO THE UNITED STATES We should appreciate this one. This, from a Canadian newspaper, is worth sharing. TRIBUTE TO THE UNITED STATES America: The Good Neighbor. Widespread but only partial news coverage was given recently to a remarkable editorial broadcast from Toronto by Gordon Sinclair, a Canadian television commentator. what follows is the full text of his trenchant remarks as printed in the Congressional Record: "This Canadian thinks it is time to speak up for the Americans as the most generous and possibly the least appreciated people on all the earth. Germany, Japan and, to a lesser extent, Britain and Italy were lifted out of the debris of war by the Americans who poured in billions of dollars and forgave other billions in debts. None of these countries is today paying even the interest on its remaining debts to the United States. When France was in danger of collapsing in 1956, it was the Americans who propped it up, and their reward was to be insulted and swindled on the streets of Paris. I was there. I saw it.When earthquakes hit distant cities, it is the United States that hurries in to help. This spring, 59 American communities were flattened by tornadoes. Nobody helped. The Marshall Plan and the Truman Policy pumped billions of dollars into discouraged countries. Now newspapers in those countries are writing about the decadent, warmongering Americans. I'd like to see just one of those countries that is gloating over the erosion of the United States dollar build its own airplane. Does any other country in the world have a plane to equal the Boeing Jumbo Jet, the Lockheed Tri-Star, or the Douglas DC10? If so, why don't they fly them? Why do all the International lines except Russia fly American Planes? Why does no other land on earth even consider putting a man or woman on the moon? You talk about Japanese technocracy, and you get radios. You talk about German technocracy, and you get automobiles. You talk about American technocracy, and you find men on the moon- not once, but several times-and safely home again. You talk about scandals, and the Americans put theirs right in the store window for everybody to look at.Even their draft-dodgers are not pursued and hounded. They are here on our streets, and most of them, unless they are breaking Canadian laws, are getting American dollars from ma and pa at home to spend here. When the railways of France, Germany and India were breaking down through age, it was the Americans who rebuilt them. When the Pennsylvania Railroad and the New York Central went broke, nobody loaned them an old caboose. Both are still broke. I can name you 5,000 times when the Americans raced to the help of other people in trouble. Can you name me even one time when someone else raced to the Americans in trouble? I don't think there was outside help even during the San Francisco earthquake. Our neighbors have faced it alone, and I'm one Canadian who is damned tired of hearing them get kicked around. They will come out of this thing with their flag high. And when they do, they are entitled to thumb their nose at the lands that are gloating over their present troubles. I hope Canada is not one of those." Stand proud, America! This is one of the best editorials that I have ever read regarding the United States. It is nice that one man realizes it. I only wish that the rest of the world would realize it. We are seem to be blamed for everything, and don't get a thank you for the things we do. I would hope that each of you would send this to as many people as you can and emphasize that they should send it to as many of their friends until this letter is sent to every person on the web. I am just a single American that has read this, I SURE HOPE THAT A LOT MORE READ IT SOON. Makes you proud to live here doesn't it??
