Tsk Tsk...2 days never online see all these....
1) Religion is developed to create a sense of spiritual
calmness. However, the teachings must be revised to keep up
to current times. Failing which, it will
fail to protect its followers and allow terrorists
to claim them. Thus, Islam is not the only religion
already twisted by terrorists, but other religions are in danger
too.
We have reached a point where no one religion or country
is safe from terrorism.
We ought to help them in any way.
As for political, nationalistic cause, sadly to say, it's an
abuse. The culprits have defiled what their ancestors taught
them.
2) As for the invasion of Iraq, i have to be blunt--It's all
about OIL. saddam doesn't want to give it to them,
america bomb the shit out of iraq and kicked saddam out of
power.
Needless to say, the invasion has only made the whole situation
murkier than ever....no one knows what's going on...
Agree with you except for the 2nd point. Best we cleared it up
once and for all so that there can be no sympathising or excuses
for terrorists acts.
Let us depend on facts and NOT on conspiracy theories.
Fact is, US attacked Iraq because Sadam, the expansionist despot
who invaded and murdered even people of his own religion, not only
Iran but kuwait as well, had used the possesion of nuclear weapons
or the lack of it to threaten the rest of the world.
Despite several datelines being redrawn to ensure that there is
really NO nuclear weapons with this madman, he failed and ignored
every plea from every fearful leader in the world to allow
inspections. There was no need to hide anything. These are
supposed nuclear warheads we are talking about, capable of
wiping out a population and render the land uninhabitable for
years, as well as the drift of nuclear wastes into the atmosphere
destroying neighbouring lands, not a piece of seditious paper.
US did what it had to do, to ensure there really was no nukes,
even though the CIA initially said there was. Casualties were kept
to a minimum, and when the war was over in days, they had wanted to
go home.
What ensued was that the outlawed Al Queda seized the
opportunity to enter Iraq, and turn the US fight against Sadam,
which the population welcomed and waved with american flags, into a
religious war, for years as a measure to keep the iraq weak,
killing its govt officials and security forces, and US
confined in Iraq without linking up its armies in afghanistan. (
even now, it is attempting to make the US ally Pakistan engage in a
war with india to prevent the allies from helping US.
Al Queda must be bleeding now)
There had been conspiracy theories abound, but please,
conspiracy theories are only good for reading on a bored
night, but not based on actual fact. While there may have been
complexities, let us sort out the facts and agree upon first.
Like a jigsaw puzzle, we look for corners and straight edges
first in order to unravel a puzzle. Similarly, let us get the facts
straight first before we even comtemplate the complex stuff, if it
even exists, just like Elvis aint dead is even now still
believed.
