why is an american fetus worth more than 10 iraqi children?

Question

i know that abortion is a very controversial topic, but one that the pro-lifer repugs stand firm on. just tell me this? in all of their seemingly compassionate concern for unborn children, why are they deaf and dumb to the suffering of other children around the world? why are the children of a war torn nation that we are initiating treated with about the same importance as cattle. tell me and i would like to hear from you die hard christian conservatives!! how many of you or your church that preaches love and respect for life, just how many has ever taken up a collection for the iraqi children that are caught between a rock and a hard place. bombs and bullets have no names and many vets coming back from iraq tell horrible stories of children as collateral damage. why is it that you all are so adamant on the topic of abortion, but turn a blind eye towards brown eyed /skin children? tell me something without resorting to name calling. tell me why!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

Bush was surprised when he learned that the Iraqis were "brown people' In fact many here in the USA are still under the belief that Iraqis are white. We are a pathetically naive group. As sad as it is, it is true that many many people here in this country simply do not care about innocent Iraqis. They put them all in one category. As terrorists. But they also fail to realize that the Iraqis feel the same way about the United States.
What many also fail to realize however is that these people, these Iraqis are a prolific group. Bush and the administration should do a little research. While white women here in the United States spend thousands, literally tens of thousands of dollars in order to have a child, the Iraqis, others within the Middle East, and of course those in Africa have babies as a matter of course. This fact, despite that Iraq has been living under siege for decades, and in Africa, despite the so called AIDS crisis which kills hundreds perhaps thousands a day. People of color, for whatever the reason, and once again, are very prolific.
Perhaps IF you believe in God, he is simply seeking to replenish His earth with its original people.
It is difficult to believe that a president of this great nation would rubberstamp not only the unnecessary killing of his own troops, but the killing of hundreds of thousands of innocent people in Iraq.
Look, really look once again when you see a repeat of the first bombing in Iraq, I remember thinking.....somebody is dying there. In fact, many people are dying. Innocent people. Women, babies..families. They would show scenes of the war during late night tv on CNN, bodies, dead, bodies, grotesquely burned; babies, blown apart.
No wonder the Iraqis hate us.
No wonder.
However, what goes around comes around. Bush is a lame duck. His days are numbered.
Three 6-month terms, two weeks and counting...
We can only hope for a new and wiser leader who can lead us out of the mess created by the present administration,

Answer 2

Well, teejay, some conservatives may not support those children overseas, but you're stereotyping us if you believe ALL of us are like that. Our church DOES support many different nations. We have missionaries in many countries who do more than just preach to ppl, they offer kindness, love, food, & shelter to these children/women in need. Obviously, many of the Iraqis don't care about their OWN children when they send them out with a bomb attatched to their bodies! It's so sad! It's easy to focus all of our attention on other countries who are much more poor than we, that many ppl DO tend to forget about what some of our freedom has cost us-freedom to kill an unborn child. Is that freedom? Pro-choice? What a sick joke! The baby has NO choice. It should be called pro-death.
To most, abortion has become a form of birth control. I'm sorry, but I cannot push aside unborn American babies because of other countries that are suffering. Who else will take care of them & stand up for their rights? I will continue to pray for them AND for the more unfortunate children around the world!

Answer 3

The method of clearing a mine field in Iraq was to line the children up and march them through the field. Life has a different value for some cultures. The adults go to heaven for suicide bombing. We value life but what kind of life can a child offer another child. It is human to want the best for each other. The mongols would make slaves of white sailors. Travesty everywhere, and life needs meaning. People care to little for the pursuit of happiness. Life begins when the children leave home. Children and the innocence that discovers life is the wonder here, who wants to deny that. Who wants to see children suffer, but they do and the choice has to be personal. Government just can not go there.

Answer 4

I am a Christian, and a Conservative. I will never support abortion as a means to birth control by immoral persons who do not even value the lives of there own children.
Americans have been fighting to save the lives and liberties of Iraqi people for four years. Children that were killed by our troops were killed by accident. Meanwhile many Iraqi children are killed by their own people on purpose. As for the brown eye/ brown skin part... you obviously are unaware of the humanitarian history of the American Citizens of our country. We, as a people of many origins, have helps others around the world on numerous occasions. You should stop listening to people who influence you in such ways, and instead research facts in order to establish what is true and what is not true.

Answer 5

Look who is talking about NOT name calling and in the first sentence resorts to it...
We do care...BUT we care more for the kids safety at home...How many of your loved ones were lost on 9/11......I would bet.......NONE....
If the Iraqi want their kids safe...don't harbor terrorists....that is a start...2nd...there have been very few stories of kids as collateral damage from the US...when there has we investigate with the armed services to ensure as many precautions were taken as could be...

WHERE IS YOUR OUTRAGE AT THE TERRORIST BOMBERS WHOM GO KILL INNOCENTS IN THE MARKET?
We have sat by and watched you blame them on GW...as if he strapped the bomb to the scum and sent him into the crowd.

You have no sense of reality OR logic...but you terminate a unborn life because it may interfere with your social life...where is your concern for these victims that are unable to speak for themselves....
So do not try and compare apples and oranges by your logic because as usual libs and truth do not mix and

TRUTH KILLS LIB LIES

There the only name calling ...unlike you... was that of the terrorist...I know he is your hero...but get over it....

And Gabby..you got the thumbs down for being a lying lib...you wouldnt know truth if it bit ya...

Answer 6

Do you mean innocent people like those at Coventry Cathedral in 1940?
How about the 8 children killed on the hijacked planes?*
Or maybe you mean the children they themselves strap explosives onto to be used as bombs as martyrs to Allah.
Perhaps you speak of the children that they themselves kill just because they are not the same sect as they are?

Why are we doing this you ask? Because we love our children first and foremost, born and unborn. I am truly sorry, honestly, that these children are born to parents who are evil. I hate it just as much as I when KKK loving racist parents get together and have children, pushing their horrible beliefs onto them, creating just one more generation of hate.

I am Christian and as conservative as they get. I am not name calling despite what your first answer states. Perhaps he should look in the mirror prior to handing out sarcasm like that. But when it comes down to a choice between my own son and the "brown eyed /skin children", they lose every time.

MR.JERK71!!!
YOUR POST WAS AWESOME!!! YOU ARE JUST REPEATING MY NEPHEWS WHEN THEY CAME BACK FROM IRAQ.
Thank you for serving my country, protecting my freedoms, my flag and my family.

Answer 7

I agree.
rather or not you support abortion- we are so concerned with making sure children are born we forget that once they are here they need to be taken care of.

I'm not surprised that kids from other countries are never mentioned. we have dead children from bullets not meant for them, we have orphanages, foster care, juvinile detention for kids who only offend because their parents don't teach them right from wrong, ect
and even though those children who suffer are in this country they don't get any attention. it when a woman wants to make sure she doesn't have another child born into that hell that everyone is in an uproar

Answer 8

I have a fetus in the trunk of my car. Are you saying you know of a place that I can trade it for 10 Iraqi kids? I need some light housekeeping and yardwork done, and they seem to be very strong on T.V., so this would be a transaction of interst to me. Please let me know where to go, since this fetus doesn't do much for me.

Answer 9

From what I understand the Cristians have been in the Middle East trying to "save" the "dirty" Muslims since the early 1800's.

Answer 10

The job of an American Soldier is to save lives.

The job of an insurgent is to kill as many innocents as he she can.

If you can't see that, then I feel sorry for you.
