You could be misled too by your own media. Who knows. God knows. It 
was my mistake to mention "poor uranium". "Depleted uranium" is more 
appropriate. Can you guarantee that your media is not biased? Who can 
guarantee that? Wise people know the intention of US politicians.

I didn't say if US eliminate its nuclear arsenal, hatred will stop.

Exactly my intention. Who is the coward? You want to fight the war but 
don't want to see your men and women killed on the battle field. Don't 
  go to war. It needs great courage to be a suicide bomber. I don't 
agree to their acts. I would say they have used their courage on the 
wrong side. But, what choice do they have? They don't have technology. 
They dare to go to war in person.

What is your belief in a higher good? The most powerful man in the 
world keeps on saying "We fight for freedom!"? The liberty? The oil? 
The US$? Global marketing? Global power? Global dominance?

After Sept 11, only the emotion and feeling of the survivors were 
screened on CNN. What about the feeling of people in Afganistan, 
Palestine, and Iraq when they dropped tonnes of explosive onto thier home?

Fair? Ha... Oil is thicker than blood!
