I guess this is in response to the guy who's reply you edited LOL Yeah, I've met some really great people over here in Iraq and I must say they are some great people. I've met alot of Christians and Muslims over here alike; the culture and moral well being of these people are outstanding. 'Tis a shame it's that very small percentage who is building the stereotype I think most of us have come to see on the television, conversations with associates, or even our own minds.

But like I said, until the Arab nations come together and do something about their radical factions, dubious motives (Syria), and it's off-springs (Chechnya) this world is going to hell in a hand basket.

Being so pessimistic as to saying we are heading for a World War isn't a stretch in a few years. If the other nations in the world don't unite to stamp out terrorism then we all are lost. The United States government, no matter how dubious their intentions really are (yes, I have done a 180 on this) the underlying problem still exists, evil in one of it's purist forms: hatred.

I'm getting off my soap box. I hate talking about politics and that's where I was headed. As long as we breathe air in America, we will fight with our UK brothers & sisters until we breathe no more. God, bless.

Funny, I bring this up to my wife all the time. Being black myself, the only thing I equate this to is no one wants to help a continent full of blacks. I know it seems short-sighted, but what's the explanation to the ignorance? I know their are alot of white's in South Africa, but these aren't the people who have the issues going on. It has very much been on my mind alot since watching Hotel Rwanda, and it's goes on with a long list of Western ignorance:

-Remember the Iranian earthquakes last year? Who in the hell gave them aid? Course, when the Tsunami's hit the vacation spots in the Indian Ocean oh their was alot of "heart & soul" outreach & money going their way.

-Countless times the U.S. has paid some faction to kill another faction. Either the Afghans against the Soviets, the Iran-Contra scandal, the various groups outside of Iraq the U.S. paid against Iraq pre-2003,...it can go on and on Im sure

Crap, see I went political. God bless everyone.

Terrorists are just mislead individuals. They may work for a group, but this dosent make the entire Arab population bad, I hope that the people who can actually and effectivly do something about this do, befor the world starts to get to angry, i dont know about you people in the UK, but people here are a little more then ticked off at the Arab Govts. and are asking them to please start some serious campaigns against the terrorists, America cant do it alone, but with the help of theses Govts. and now the UK, and proably soon to be more countrys, we should be able to stop this

i am a muslim, and i think they the western world has "allowed" or "providing" anger for this to happen, both sides are wrong, both have killed innocent people, one side has to stop, it has to move on, if u want peace.
