News & Events - August 2006

First let me state clearly 1) that I am NOT ANTI MUSLIM and 2) that I am somewhat sympathetic to the Muslim people especially to the Palestinian people living in the West Bank and Gaza. and 3) I know that sometimes people's lives are so desparate that they are driven to desparate acts. But this is not always the case with suicide bombers. Too often innocent lives are lost, including children. Please do not refer to the American and israeli bombs that kill hundreds of people every day. I know about them and I do not condone them either. The question is addressed only to Muslims. Why do people become suicide bombers? I simply can't believe that it is because they believe they will go directly to heaven where they will be greeted by 29 virgins or whatever the number is. Sorry for such a long explanation. You can be as long or brief as you wish as long as you speak from your heart.

If you have heard about Mayor of New Orleans Ray Nagin comments. What do you think about his first comment that New Orleans is going to be a chocolate city? How would you take that?

He said well look at NY it's been 5 yrs and they still have a hole in the ground where 2 buildings were? what do you think of those comments?

why is Israel permitted to have weapons of mass destruction??

Israel has wheapons that can completely devastate every country in the middle east , in one short period, and has used nuclear to destroy the arabic people in the so called six day war, If they are successsful in bringing down the arbic countries thru starvation and genoicide and incorporate those countries into their fold they will be the world power, since their bible teaches, and they believe the goy and goyim will be their slaves what do you think will be the out come ?guess who the goy and goyim is?? so why should Israel have all of this super power and no one else , if others had this power the world would not be safe to live in so the answer seems to be to disarm Israel, then maybe they would not be as apt to start another war as they did this time , God gave you a brain, please use it,
