by acting the way they did...do the kids realize who at that moment is the terrorist. They were the one terrorizing Saddam. It wasn't right for them to do that just because of his name.

Has your race ever had to suffer at the hand of ignorance? If so, you should be fully aware that what he is enduring is wrong. One group of individuals does not represent the entire race. True, there are a large number of non-American's that hate our country, but we can't single people out by stereo-typing. Saddam may not belong to any group that hates Americans, but your behavior will cause him to do so on his own. You need to realize that ignorance and closed-mindedness is the root of the entire conflict. (Theirs towards us and ours towards them.) I am a red-blooded American who loves my country, and am proud of every soldier that lives and dies for me. I would not want to live anywhere in the world but here, but I do realize that there are non-American people who feel that way about their own country. We are not all the same, and being able to respect that is the first step to ending conflict. What happened on 9/11 was a tragedy, but can we really mistreat innocent people and believe we are any different than the terrorists? The people responsible for terrorism should be punished, but only the responsible parties. Open your eyes and see what your friends are doing. They are racists who are scared of anyone who is not like them. That should worry you. What if the terms change, and they decide that in one way or another you are not like them. You could be a target. This behavior is unacceptable and illegal, and you should be ashamed for considering to be a part of it. A little over fifty years ago, African Americans who wanted to end segregation were the enemy. Were they the enemy? Who are the real terrorists?

The scars of childhood...not kind for some. I can only imagine the boys named Adolf during 1950 in the US or the Boys named Hannibal during the Roman Empire. Its the fickled finger of fate being named after the fallen or notorius. He may have been better of changing his name to O.J.

You are setting a good example. Talk to a teacher, the principal or school counselor so they can get this addressed. They might not know it is happening if it's a large school or happens when they aren't around. The kid doesn't deserve it.

The people in your class who call the boy named Saddam a terrorist are mean and very stupid. I had in my class a boy named Adolf, some stupid boys called him Hitler but that was soon terminated because I punched their noses in.

no, thats so mean. and you (meaning any person) are an insult to the human race if you (meaning any person) would do that. i mean, its not his fault his parents named him that. and its NOT EVERY MUSLIMS FAULT. stop acting like this AND GROW UP PEOPLE. learn to love one another by their personality and NOT their race/religion/name.

absolutely not. maybe when i was younger i would not think hard enough of what i was doing and a friend of mine would be mean to someone because of their race and i would stupidly join in, but now i wouldn´t. its best to have a mind of your own and do whats right. you´re doing whats right.

diffinitely NOT... im not a RACIST... those people are JERKS!
besides you can't look at people because of the things that his countrymen did... people differ so is their perspective. sometimes people are so proud of themselves (or ancestors or nations) that they forget that they themselves came from the ashes... i dont like terrorism, i dont want anybody of my family being hurt but it doesnt have to make me judge other people because of their fellowmens background...
