That isn`t what ZOWAA and the AIDS Society are. I was refering to them. They are both heavily in bed with America..not Iraq. They are as much traitors to Iraq as any collaborator...Muslim or Christian. Iraqis should have been encouraging Christians in America to OPPOSE the war...not send them money for the CHRISTIANS. > >Look, if you carry out your argument to the extreme, which you are doing, all forms of protest can only be accomplished within the context of a one party system - that there are no limits to the one-party system - everyone is part of it, no matter how much they work to destroy or change it into something else. Why don't we kill all of us, then? What's the point of living or letting anyone live? All humans are part of the one massive party, then? ...Nader is`trying to break the stranglehold of a one Party system. Therew as no thought to consumer protection till he took on GM. It was a ONE PARTY auto conglomerate and they did as they pleased...it was by appealling to people of commom semse that he made them change their evil ways. ..We have a winner take all system so minor parties can ONLY be spoilers..I`m sure Nader would prefer that his once 5 to 7 percent of the vote meant a cabinet post had to be given to someone OUTSIDE the one part...but that still doesn`t mean anything useful is accomplished by voting for lesser evils... ...America will curl up and die if it continues like this...there`s no way around that. Nader says let`s try to avoid that..let`s build as large a group as we can to begin to make a difference at the grass roots level to begin with..it`s like a boycott..you don`t have to BREAK the company..just put a dent in its profits..which are a fraction of its income...with the promise that there`s more to come..that`s what Nader is trying to start..a rebellion in the ranks. King George was a one party system unto himself..and the Revolutionaries were not popular in America when they started out..but they started. > >My point is that the people who were captured are NOT part of "the system" in any way, shape, or form. Read the article below. ...yes they are. There are several pressure points at which they could make themselves felt..it`s nice of them to treat the victims we make..but that machinery is soon going to be self-propelling...with a role for them AND Marines..they`ll go hand and hand all over the world doing what they started in Iraq...that`s what`s wrong here..we`re normalizing something that used to be reserved for natural disasters..with good hearted citizens rushing in with food and blankets...we are going to make the American Military intoi a NATURAL disaster and see as "good" sending in blankets for those whose houses we blow apart. ...this is a NEW world...we`ve NEVER attacked a nation on THIS kind of an obvious lie...and there were no "aidpeople" swarming over hanoi or Saigon...this is a new phenomenom and it`s going to become institutionalized...it would be far better to establish a precedent for laying down in traffic round the White House every time out military does this... >--------------------------------- >ADC Update >ADC Calls for Release of Humanitarian Aid Workers Abducted in Iraq > >September 9, 2004 - The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) calls for the release of two Italian and two Iraq humanitarian aid workers who were abducted in Iraq. All four are members of Bridges to Baghdad, an Italian non-governmental organization which has provided assistance to the Iraqi people since 1992. > >ADC President Mary Rose Oakar asked that their captors release them unharmed. “On behalf of the Arab-American community, I ask that they be set free. They are committed friends of the Iraqi people, and their work has earned them the right to the gratitude of all people of honor.” > >Simona Torretta and Simona Pari are Italians, and Ra'ad Ali Abdul Azziz >and Mahnoaz Bassam are Iraqis. Turretta has spent a third of her life for Iraq and was joined by Pari last year. She is the head of Bridges’ programs in Iraq, which include running clinics and repairing water infrastructure and schools. Pari organizes educational programs for traumatized children. Azziz is an engineer working on school projects, and Bassam works on the social program. Bridges workers have risked their lives to deliver food, water, blood and medicine to civilians trapped in the ongoing military conflict in Fallujah and Najaf. They have helped to strengthen Iraqi human rights organizations. > >The international peace and human rights community has responded to their abduction with strong and widespread appeals for their release.
