simple, but wasted words...

You know, I am praying (to whom or what, I am not saying) for the people who are fighting on al-Sadr's side in Najaf and elsewhere in Iraq against the occupation and for the people imprisoned in the concentration camps in Iraq. THEY are brave. THEY are worthy of their noble heritage. That a group of BRUTES, BARBARIANS, has destroyed their lives for the last decade, ramping up the violence Iraqis have experienced over the past year, while the rest of the world looks on just kills me.

Like parhad, I don't hate America. I LOVE this country... the good people, various institutions, and beautiful nature that surrounds me here. I LOVE Iraq, too. I love that country, all of the peoples that have existed there, the culture... everything. I used to wish that I could visit that place, see the marvelous sights, experience the culture, and meet people, possibly family and friends of my family.... I don't know if I ever will be able to do those things now.... Why do some people in the States think that it is "un-American" to love both places and to love those who justifiably fight for their lives in Iraq? I am American, and I am ashamed of people who think that way.

It doesn't make me happy to be on this side of the guns. How am I supposed to just sit here and watch the slaughter of innocent people who deserve the same rights to life and happiness that I cherish? This is torture! I don't care what their religions are - they are my brothers and sisters on this earth. I love them for the differences between us and the similarities we may share. I love them because they are humans, part of the animal kingdom, part of the life that was meant to exist on this earth with me alongside the plants, fungi, etc. I have no demands; I have no ultimatums for anyone to meet. I have only love for fellow beings, comrades who were meant to march through life with me....
