> Obliterated Fallujah & "The ’horrid case’ against my country is that...
29 March 2005, 02:23
I do not think a person sincerely questioning, trying to find the truth is guilty of "murder." The simple truth is hard to find. What is it with the word "horrid" that you all highlight? It’s a good word. A little melodramatic, but still just a word. A case against anybody, any country without proof is "horrid" in my opinion. When I read some of these blogs, I just can’t help but question.
So what we have here are bloggers who leave their Email addresses and ask for comments. Apparently if you question, if you make strong statements in expressing your opinions, your Email will be posted around to various sites without your permission, perhaps to reap some unkind comments. Why? For the pleasure of the blogger? If these bloggers only want people to agree with them, they should be honest and say so. It’s really a shame, though. If Mr. Hussain and Mr. Nimmo, bloggers both, had asked me, I would have said fine. Go ahead and post it. Mr. Nimmo also saw fit to post my blog without informing me. Freedom of speech, difference of opinion, since when has this become something to exploit? If you look at Mr. Hussains blog, you will see polite requests, i.e. "may I please" use your Email on my blog? I did not receive that courtesy. Again why? I do admit I have sent many angry, questioning Emails to Mr. Hussain in the past. Perhaps he just went "ballistic." That I can understand. I do it myself occasionally...
So many of the opinions written by various bloggers about America are so brutal, and they are just posted with no explanation or proof. It is a "horrid" case against anyone, any country that contains innuendo and ugly charges written with no proof. Why don’t these writers offer their readers some explanation of what they say? Are we just to accept their conslusions? Mr. Hussain, I notice, writes in his article "End of Days" that "Talk of nuking Mecca to send one final message to the Muslim world has already done the rounds in the neocon’s camp." In another article "The President is Right Indeed," he writes about Mr. Bush "being a very religious man..." ...That is true but then he goes on with"not very long back made his troops swear on a holy book before they entered Fallujah with guns blazing and laid waste to life in all forms." WHAT holy book? He also says "Muslim radicals are desperately seeking the horrible nuclear weapon." I have read articles and heard on the media that "Radical Muslims" would love to get their hands on nuclear weapons. Didn’t we all hear that? However I have never heard that America ever, ever even considered "nuking Mecca." I think a statement like that merits proof. He may say the article was merely setting up hypothetical situations, however if you read his article, "End of Days," you will see that it is stated as fact.
We did not go into Fallujah bacause of the murder of the four contacters. Did you not notice that hundreds of the citizens of Fallujah were cheering these deaths?If we can believe the media, International News and Fox there were hundreds. That is the only I proof I can offer that Fallujah may well have been a base for the evil Mr. Zarqawi. To me he is evil. Is he a hero to some of you? Fallujah was a city of 250,000. Did we kill 250,000? That would verify Mr. Husseins statement that we "laid waste to all life forms." He then goes on to quote the Old Testament 1 Samuel 15:3. Could this be the "holy book" he mentions? Was Mr. Bush there holding that book for each soldier to swear on as he makes it appear? Again, read the article to agree or disagree with me. We all see things the way we see them. That does not make us "murders."
I read that a little over 2,000 were killed in Fallujah. How many were soldiers? How many children? As I said in another Email to Mr. Hussain, I hate it. I hate all this killing, but How many innocents for years and years have been blown up, beheaded, raped, etc., simply because things are not going the way certain people want them to go? Someone is finally telling these deadly children "NO!" America, et al have finally stood up. Also, If you look at my infamous "horrid" Email you will see that it is full of questions. I am simply a person looking for answers to all this tragedy. That’s all... Nothing extraordinary, just wondering...Of course I do get angry. Do the readers never get angry at something they read? Perhaps they will understand that emotion when they read my comments, if they are posted.
I have one last question. How many of us noticed when, for over a decade, Saddam Hussein, et al murdered, tortured, raped and created all those mass graves? Did we raise our voices then? Did I miss it??
As you probably have figured out, I am the writer of that infamous "horrid" Email. I will leave my name and address. Then you can yell at me all that you want...

PS: a brief list of some of the "propaganda" I indulge in, would be Fox, CNN and International News. Time, Newsweek, politcal books, i.e. John Gibson’s "Hating America, the New World Sport," Jon Stewart’s "America, Christoper Hitchins’ "Trial of Henry Kissinger," George Crile’s "Charlie Wilson’s War," and others. You can find a lot of political information in books such as these.
