A MINUTE OF SILENCE FOR EVERYONE?
|
A MINUTE OF SILENCE FOR EVERYONE? If you are still shaken by the horrifying scenes of September 11, please observe a moment of silence for the 5,000 civilian lives lost in the New York, Washington, DC and Pennsylvania attacks. While we're at it, let's have 13 minutes of silence for the 130,000 Iraqi civilians killed in 1991 by order of President Bush Sr. Take another moment to remember how Americans celebrated and cheered in the streets. Now another 20 minutes of silence for the 200,000 Iranians killed by Iraqi soldiers using weapons and money provided to young Saddam Hussein by the American government before the great eagle turned all its power against Iraq. Another 15 minutes of silence for the Russians and 150,000 Afghans killed by troups supported and trained by the CIA. Plus 10 minutes of silence for 300,000 Japanese killed in Hiroshima and Nagasaki by the Atomic bombs dropped by the USA. We've just kept quiet for one hour: one minute for the Americans killed in NY, DC, and Pennsylvania, 59 minutes for their victims throughout the world. If you are still in awe, let's have another hour of silence for all those killed in Vietnam, which is not something Americans like to admit. The US went to another continent thousands of miles away and burnt tens of thousands of Vietnamese peasants with napalm. Or for the massacre in Panama in 1989, where American troops attacked poor villagers, leaving 20,000 Panamanians homeless and thousands more dead. Or for the millions of children who have died because of the USA embargoes on Iraq and Cuba. Or the hundreds of thousands brutally murdered throughout the world by US-sponsored civil wars and coups d'etat (Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Bolivia, Guatemala, El Salvador to name a few). Maybe, and although the memory of Americans claims otherwise, someone may remember the USA attack on Bagdad where 18,000 civilians were killed. Did someone see it on CNN? Was justice ever served? Or was there even any retaliation? We hope that Americans finally begin to understand their vulnerability and the attacks and other tragedies that they have caused around the world. The dead in other places hurt as much as the dead of the Towers, maybe even more! What about the 560,000 Iraqi children (as per current UN data) who have died as a direct cause of the US supported sanctions against Iraq? What about a new generation of nearly one million Iraqi children who are currently having their lives being ruined by improper nutrition, lack of medicine and inferior education because of US supported sanctions. Now, let's talk about terrorism, shall we? David A' Gardner [email protected] International Solidarity: Palestine, Ireland, Chechnya, Lebanon, Afghanistan, Columbia, Euskadi, Kashmir, Iraq

Mr. Aba
your quotation of the ugly history of America and the unawareness of the Americans about what is going on about them is really interesting and i like it very much though I know most of the facts you cited but I felt as if I heard them for the first time because of you impressive way.
I hope you will continue to provide us with such lovely quotations.
The sentence "Now, let's talk about terrorism, shall we?" really " a word to a wise man is enough" but are the bloodsuckers wise enough to understand your sentence?
truly I have no words to express my thankfullness.

Yep Bro Aba, I've read the subject twice,indeed it's a heavy punch on their face at same time it's a reminder for us to settle our own wounds.... Luckly Veitnamese,Japanese,Iranians...etc,their moments silence are memories of bitter history. At the moment,back home ppl begging the devil for mercy.... I hope moments of silence on da board should continue...never understimate it's objectives... We're in the same Camp bro..
