 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?

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..
