How the hell did anyone come to the conclusion that we -- residents of the U.S., Americans, U.S. immigrants, what have you -- are enemies of Islam? We are enemies of any group that tries to "cleanse" any soil on the basis of religion or race. Can't all of humanity come to the simple agreement that such is bad? Can't we have a universal truth on Earth that all humans have the right to live together? I implore those who are immersed in hatred to educate me. Are the Irish aware of how silly they appear to the rest of the world? Hurting young girls who are attempting to attend school? What am I missing? Why can't some of us grasp it ? The world can consider us naive. The United States was founded as a home for all. As a direct result, we've developed strength/power such that we've also become the global cop. One could point to slavery, to what was done to Native Americans, to internment during WWII, etc. We're evolving, we're working to evolve. To anyone on Earth who doesn't understand..... try to grasp a basic..... people like Sadaam Hussein (sp?) are evil. To those, worldwide, who may be celebrating....... our country is strong and wealthy. How the hell can you rejoice at the knowledge that innocent people -- people who would openly welcome you to share our wealth -- have suffered such cruelty at the hands of cowards? If you are celebrating, you are trapped in a world of hatred that makes you ineffective in the modern world. Go away. Become a martyr, and rid this world and our children of your anger. I nominate Doc Bones to run the world for the next 10 years or so. Is everybody else sick of all these damn politicos -- senators, minority leaders, governors, mayors, other PEEONS, who are stepping onto stage? Screw all of you!!!!! Shut your flapping faces. edit........ Five rescue workers..... firefighters...... found alive!!!
