i have worked with CPT in Rafah in the Gaza Strip. I am 100% sure that these people are very good people who spent their lives oppossing illegal military occupations and human rights violations. I really wish they will be released and will return to their families and beloved ones as soon as possible. I share with them and you all my thoughts and prayers
May U.S. President George Bush, other world leaders, militias of all sorts and those who have kidnapped these peacemakers realize that violence will not help us build a better world.
Please end this senseless war and bring our military people to their families and friends.
An ill-conceived war and a war begun through deceipt - is just plain wrong!
The lives of all people - from Iraq, from the US, from anywhere in the world - are worth saving. Releasing these hostages would be a worthy indication of that concept.
I can only wonder what is going on in the minds of the captors. I wonder if they had any idea about who they kidnapped. Will they be able to do the right thing and release the very peope who are there to work on their apparant position of having Iraq be a sovereign county.
I also wonder about my outrage at these people being kidnapped. Is it less serious if others who support or appear to support the current admnistration policy of overtaking this country?
Good Morning.......
I love it when hand wringing leftists (to quote my favorite comentator Rush Limbaugh) are given a dose of "reality".
In my opinion Thursday cannot come soon enough......I hope these guys get their heads cut off and the gruesome video is broadcast worldwide just like the others.
Like you I am also a peace activist............and the sooner we wipe the balance of the Islamic sand ******s from the face of the planet thru total war, the sooner we will have peace in that part of the world. Look at Germany and Japan......we almost totally and completely destroyed their entire population and countries in WWII and what are they now but nothing more than "peaceful little lambs"............
All organizations like yours do is prolong conflict and suffering thru useless conciliation..........war is good and serves a purpose for their has never been a conflict on this planet in recorded hisotry where a true and lasting peace was won thru negotiation and maintained thruout history..........witness the present 2,000 year old conflict between Arabs and Jews.
Leftists are the pallbearers of societies.
