"I am not a christian but I can tell you that it is not that simple." Many things in life are NOT black OR white (no race connotations please) BUT -- BEING A REAL CHRISTIAN IS !!!!!! Belief alone IS enough !!!!!!!!!!!!!! You then live a certain life style because you love the Lord. BUT --- (and I answer because you brought it up) the thief on the cross is in Heaven today because he BELIEVED, not because he lived a certain life style ! AND --- (You've heard this) John 3:16 For God so loved the World that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever BELIEVETH on Him should not perish but have everlasting life. It doesn't say that whosoever lives a certain life style. You do that because you love someone. I'm not preaching -- just correcting your incorrect comment. :-)

OOPs -- you also said "Reading racist thread without objecting to racism here is equivalent to approving it" Again, I don't agree. Your calling it a racist thread doesn't make it so. The INTENDED subject was :ISRAEL TO U.S. : NOW DEAL WITH SYRIA AND IRAN I happen to think that much of Iraq's weaponry went to or thru Syria. And have always felt that IRAN was the more dangerous of the countrys as far as problem to the U.S. went. I hoped that someone would get off the racist comments and back to the "stated" subject matter. So far it has not happened, but recent news may alter that.

AK --- Messages such as this are some of what shaped my thinking, and why I keep my eye on this thread -- hoping it'll get back to it's intended purpose. Saddam ordered WMD strike on Israel By JPOST.COM STAFF 28 January The former deputy of the Iraqi air force, General Georges Sada, revealed on Saturday that that former dictator of Iraq, Saddam Hussein, ordered him during the first Gulf War to bomb Israeli population centers with chemical weapons. The ousted dictator, said Sada in recently published book, Saddam's secret's, ordered 96 Russian fighter jets to be armed with chemical weapons and sent to bomb Israel. According to Sada, who recently served as a national security advisor to the temporary prime minister and was in the midst of a book tour in the US, said he succeeded in convincing Hussein to reconsider his order. Sada said he convinced Saddam to abort the mission by telling him that the Iraqi pilots could not complete the mission with the equipment at their disposal, and that the Israelis had radar that could detect them before they reached their target. In his book, which was written four years ago, Sada also claims that Iraq's chemical weapons were taken to Syria aboard civilian Iraqi "Boeing" airplanes just prior to the US invasion. The 65-year-old Sada said that 56 flights of this type took place, but went largely unnoticed because they were flying under the guise of humanitarian aid. Prior to the second Iraq war Israel warned that Iraq was moving chemical weapons from its territory into Syria. Chemical weapons and other weapons of mass destruction were never found in Iraq by US-led allied forces.
