16. This is very short-sighted!
Don't you realize what the OTHER reason is for the invasion and occupation of Iraq?

Don't you realize why 9/11 happened?

Have you never read the Project for a New American Century?

Do you know about Armageddonists, Bush, the NeoCons, and Israel's rightwing government?

Don't you realize how close Palestine, Israel and Iraq are? It's as if we had a wall around San Diego, in CA, and confined all the Mexican-Americans and Mexicans to that zone, and shot at them occasionally, and killed some, and bulldozed any homes they might have built outside of San Diego...

Palestine is WHAT'S HAPPENING in the Middle East--from the point of view of all Arabs and Muslims. That's what it's all about.

If YOU were a Mexican-American, and the above was the condition of your people, or you were their advocate, wouldn't you be a bit shrill?

And don't think it can't happen here.

Until we deal with the Israel-Palestine issue, in the most just way that can be arranged, there will be no peace in the Middle East, no peace for us, and no peace in the world.

And I'm afraid that the attitude that this is NOT the issue comes straight out of the BushCon lapdog media. Really, think about this. Think where your information about Palestine is coming from--from warmongers and war profiteers.
