"Those who live by the sword shall die by the sword." And as for your take on Saddam Hussein (which I think is really irrelevent to the topic at hand) I think the sanctions that were placed on Iraq was a total disaster. Clinton actually thought Hussein cared for the other factions of his country, which he obviously did not. And your final question about should everyone suffer because of the actions of a few. No they shouldn't. And to stop something like this from happening again, we have to stop supporting puppet governments like we did with Hussein, and currently with the Mullah's in Iran. But I want your opinion on the following: What percentage of the Palestinians support the suicide bombings?
As salam alaikum
Highjack! I just want to warn everyone.
\"But I do not feel that suicide bombings is an effective way to get the sympathy that the Palestinians need from the rest of the world.\"
Guess what the Palestinians were doing before they started suicide bombings? After waiting and waiting and having the UN ignore their pleas, they started to try to remedy thier situation in a manner that they felt would suceed with the little resources that they have. I am not stating my opinion on these tactics. I have one but it is mine. Since I am not a scholar, I keep my mouth shut.
I just wanted to point out that these people have been waiting for help. The only difference now is that countries use the excuse that they are terrorists as a means of denying them aid.
Along those lines, did you believe that the trade blockade to Iraq was effective in getting Sadam Hussien from power or did it just starve innocent people? Should everyone suffer because of the actions of a few?
As salam alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu, ikhwan.
