The following article was taken from http://www.cnn.com/2001/WORLD/meast/09/18/vic.terror.iraq/index.html. At the end of the article, CNN tells us that "Iraq blames the United States for the deaths of 1.5 million Iraqis as a result of U.N. economic sanctions imposed after the Gulf War."



Contrasting messages from Iraq on terror attacks

September 18, 2001 Posted: 8:41 AM EDT (1241 GMT)

BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- In a letter to a U.S. anti-sanctions group, Iraqi Deputy Prime Minister Tariq Aziz expressed "warm sympathies" over terrorist attacks that leveled the World Trade Center in New York and damaged the Pentagon in Washington, the official Iraqi News Agency reported Tuesday.

September 18, 2001 Posted: 8:41 AM EDT (1241 GMT)



Aziz extended his condolences to the "victims of the incident of 11 September" in a letter addressed to Kathy Kelly, co-founder of Voices in the Wilderness.

"Through you, I extended my condolences to the families of the victims and especially the honorable American people who were in solidarity with the Iraqi people," it said.

At a Glance: Iraq





The Aziz letter was in marked contrast to an open letter to Americans and Westerners and their governments from Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein that was read Saturday on Iraqi television.

In the letter, he criticized the United States and Arab rulers who "rushed to condemn the event" of Tuesday's terror attacks on New York and Washington.

"What happened on September 11, 2001, should be compared to what their government and their armies are doing in the world," the statement read, blaming the deaths of 1.5 million Iraqis due to the blockage imposed by the United States and other Western nations.

"Americans should feel the pain they have inflicted on other peoples of the world, so as when they suffer they will find the right solution and the right path."

Iraq blames the United States for the deaths of 1.5 million Iraqis as a result of U.N. economic sanctions imposed after the Gulf War.

are you aware that going to a matsuri festival is a shinto rite? therefore those in attendance are taking part in a shinto festival.

would it be fair to say that a christian at a sakura matsuri would be like a hebrew taking communion at easter?

In the work place caucation will work with black, because it is necessary to carry on business. After work, the circumstances allows one to be more free to do as he please, and there is no "corporate behavior" restrictions that control behavior. What happens after work is that caucation will hang with his buddies, other caucations. Even though caucations will never admit it, but they do look at people based on color. Because someone is another color, caucation will have less reason and interest to introduce themselves with the motivation of making friends with someone that is considered outside their social circle based on race. I have seen it very often as a colored person, because it happens everyday in my perception. It may not occur to caucations that they do this, they see no problem, because they do not have to carry on each day having to interact with someone outside of their "white" race. But we do, we have to cross that color line to interact with them.

Situation 1: Say that God does exist and God has instituted realms of heaven and hell. Say also that all disbelievers of him will go to hell.
Putting aside all the other sins that a person can commit to determine eligibility to either realm, that would mean an atheist will go to hell while a believer will go to heaven.

Situation 2: God doesent exist, there is no afterlife to worry about.
Nothing will happen to atheist in death, nothing will happen to believers in death.

Consequence: In our world, if u do believe in god, there is no conseqence if god dosent exist. However if you dont believe in God and he does exist, the consequence is that you will go to hell.

reasoning : Therefore (to atheists) isint it a good idea just to believe in God as a precaution in case he does exist (which i believe fully that he does) since there is no consequence if it turns out to be otherwise?

Such as, interracial marriage being a bad idea, when if you read the Bible, it says no such thing. It does say Isreal should not marry people from the surrounding area (in the Old Testament), but that was because the people around them were idolaters, and did not believe in the One True God.
It does say God made Man in his image, but it does NOT say only this race or that race.

There are sooo many homeless, or otherwise street peddlers (beggars), that need help, but some could be scammers as well, so since we don`t know the difference,many times we won`t give them our money , But what is that one thing, they can say that will move you to give them at least a dollar or two, or more?
