Show What Are We Doing? Folks, North Korea is not lying. They have missiles that can reach our country. They have weapons of mass destruction, destruc-tion, but we were told by the trio (South Korea, China and Japan) that feeds upon us (they exports more goods to the U.S. than they buy from us) to stay out of North Korea. What are we doing? Let's sit down and talk. We scooped up Saddam Hussein (a scum, bag) and now cannot find anything that caused us to panic. Now our government govern-ment is scrambling to justify (put out $200,000 reward to anyone giving us information about weapons of mass destruction destruc-tion in Iraq). Our government still has a reward of $25 million for locating Osaka Bin Laden. We freed Kuwait. Is it democratic? demo-cratic? We are talking about rebuilding Iraq, but we haven't done anything to restore Afghanistan. Now, in less Ithan a month, Iraqis are telling us, Thank you for toppling Saddam Hussein's regime, please restore water and power and go way." Pakistan is one of the havens for international terrorists. We are sleeping with them. Forty percent of the Pakistani population popula-tion says, "Death to America." Folks, how much dumber can we get? Look at the world history. Nelson Mandella took 30 years to overthrow micro-minority rule in South Africa and it took more than 20 years for Gandhi to chase away the British from India. Look at our own history. Marcos of the Philippines was one of the most oppressive, but we approved him for decades. When he was ousted by the Filipinos, we sheltered him in Hawaii. About 25 years ago, Nixon shook hands with the Communists and China is still Communist (worst human rights violations). Now China is dumping $10 billion in goods a month plus SARS and black beetles that cost U.S. taxpayers billions in the Northwest. We are mediating the Middle East (IsraelPalestine) for more than 30 years. Let's create a playing field for them. Let's stop wasting U.S. taxpayers' $13 billion a year aid to Israel. We are practically feeding a wild bull. They will be looking for a round table in no time, and a 30-year problem will be solved in three days. Or should we dole out U.S. taxpayers' $13 billion to Palestine, too? We heard about the bunkers of Saddam Hussein, but have bunkers to house to house Congressmen and women and Senators (with their families) for 60 days. Why? If our whole country is wiped out in nuclear fallout, they can start a new civilization. civ-ilization. We saw and heard about the palaces of Baghdad, but we have the White House and soup kitchens. "My life is (See LETTERS on page 3A) Letters From Page 2A my message. ";(Gandhi) Can our modern politicians say that? In Britain, the Department of Health knew about Mad Cow disease, but kept the public in the dark for months, in China, the government tried to hide SARS, causing more suffering and deaths. Am I against the government system? No, we have a Lexus car, but drunk drivers. Harshad Desai Panguitch |
