Jan. 8, 2007, 12:08 a.m.Did You pay attention to the map? I'd like to know exactly who has the power to re-arrange the whole middle east!!! I thought we were there to spread democracy! Are we going to let any of the countries we're changing have a vote on their new borders?

Jan. 8, 2007, 12:38 p.m.See, this type of stuff is the reason why the Amerikan government is so very much hated in the region. Instead of spending the money that it spends on R & D, for alternative fuels, it spent it on the Irad debacle.
I would love to see all of the oil trading nations trade in Euros,Yen or even the Yuan. Then we'll see what Amerika does

Jan. 8, 2007, 12:58 p.m.Finally somebody has let the cat out, we Muslim are not fools we certainly aware what is the war on terror means, and the reason to start it, if the west believes that they can continue to fool the world they are wrong that will only bring their own destruction, and this is what the Imams have to say to the Muslims and the western world. In Medina, Sheikh Hussein Al-Sheikh, Imam of the Prophet's Mosque, condemned the statements linking Islam with terrorism and fascism. He was referring to a recent statement made by USA President George W. Bush who referred to Muslim extremists as "Islamic fascists.; He said the Islamic faith is based on the principles of "peace, justice, and respect for charters and agreements," Sheikh Hussein said in his Juma sermon. Last week, Sheikh Saleh ibn Muhammad Al-Taleb, another Imam of the Grand Mosque, blasted the use of veto power against Muslim issues and interests at the UN Security Council....Continues

Jan. 8, 2007, 1:03 p.m.The Imam wondered why some Western governments were supporting the Israeli occupation of Arab land and the atrocities committed against Muslims, endangering their political and economic interests in the Muslim world. He said it was in the interest of Western governments to establish stronger ties with Muslim countries that possess valuable natural resources including oil and have a combined population of nearly 1.5 billion." But these governments ignored Muslims and supported their enemy that has occupied their land after driving away their people," the Imam said. He said many Western intellectuals have opposed religious wars between nations. However, religious sentiments were exploited to achieve certain goals. "This will create an explosive situation and no country will be able to get away from its terrible consequences," he explained. continues

Jan. 8, 2007, 1:03 p.m.He urged people of Western countries to change their biased attitude toward Muslim issues by changing their leaders and governments through ballot boxes. Sheikh Saleh said some influential countries, maddened by their power and hegemony, were engaged in winning more enemies and spreading hatred among nations.
The Imam said such policies would breed more violence.

Jan. 8, 2007, 8:33 p.m.Apparently, Jehudah not only lusted after the northern kingdom of Israel...but was not satified. Jehudah also wanted to take over the Russian oil business. Oh, Jehudah now gets oil from Iraq. What did the 10 commandments state? You shall not covet your neighbors belongs nor steal, false witness, etc.

Why doesn't the majority speak up? When are they going to stand up to the radical muslims? When are they going to condem the violence and state that they are wrong? When will they preach to their people it isn't acceptable to dance in the streets when the "radical muslims" blow people up? respect, I haven't seen it.
Civilized people don't dance in the street but they support by electing an oppressor and a fundermentalis Born again crusader for second time to invade and bomb, civilized people are as blind as a bat. They are not radical Muslims they are defending aggression, you are forgetting the crime you are committing by supporting the Zionist illegal occupying regime, Israel is your 53 rd province remember. You mind your own business and thing will change and keep yourgovernment sposered terror organisation the CIA under control
