<< I pray for Mr. Bush and his team daily. >> I'm sure that Satan hears every word. << As the American, he has the difficulty responsibility of bringing national evildoer to justice. >> Does this include your friends in Al Qaeda? << He is being pushed hard by the Zionist(both Christian fundamentalist and Jews) elements within our government and within the media to make a general war against all Arabs and Moslems. >> Thanks for pointing out who are the good guys and the bad guys. <g> << My wife's first cousin was killed on the 87th floor of the second tower. >> If this is true, how can you say things that are of comfort to Al Qaeda and ben laden? Anyone have a guess as to how emile can show support for the terrorist cause, and at the same time profess to be personally effected by the bombing?

Based on your apparent support for what the US administration is doing then, read the following: "No sovereign state can tolerate indefinitely the buildup along its borders of a military force dedicated to its destruction and implementing its objectives by periodic shellings and raids" Henry Kissinger (Washington Post, June 16, 1982)." And this modified version: "No sovereign state can tolerate indefinitely attacks by terrorists dedicated to its destruction" [could easily be attributed to George W Bush, Fall 2001] So when the US attacks an aggressor, its ok. When Israel does, its not? Is there no basis at all for Israel to defend itself? Surely the answer is not an absolute 'no!'. And note that I am not condoning all that Israel or any other group in the middle east has done or is doing. As far as I'm concerned they are all at fault in many and varied ways. Religious dogma and fanaticism have bent the world out of shape for far too long. People and leaders use what they perceive as the 'one and only way' as a crutch, as an excuse for violence and hatred against those that have beliefs other than there own. Almost every 'religion' in the world has its share of atrocities and evil in its history. Ethnic violence is much more often better termed Religious Inspired violence. A sorry state of affairs. Apart from this discussion, my sympathies to your family.
