BTW Teresa & Sinni K,

Are you aware that the Islamic Republic of Iran declared War on the USA in 1978, AND have been in a state of war ever since.

How does this hold up to you're whacko comments? When the Islamofacists stormed the US embassy in 1978 the US didn't respond with guns & bombs.
The lesson learnt by the Arab World was that the US was weak & wouldn't respond.
I beleive the message has know changed.

You are all missing my point. Love, compassion, understanding, forgiveness, not war. I am sick of the talk fo war. People use the wrong words and actions to try to create what they want. You men want to fight to get what you want. Well fighting is killing, and it's morally wriong. You have to use intelligence, dialogue, acts of compassion, promotion of peace, goodwill, building better relationships, reconciliation, talk of hope, friendship, mutual agreement and obligation, trade arrangements. I'm sick of war; it's a pathetic, easy and nasty way of getting what you want. It lacks creativity and destroys people and communities.

Teresa,welcome to the real world of both family and international conflict.In the real world of survival ,there will always be conflict,and luckily for you, you have lived a charmed existence until this point in time;until your god takes away the necessity for survival,conflict will always exist.

Dear Teresa,
it's called the Neanderthal syndrome. Removing the testicles has been know to cure it.
It really is a tragedy that people (well, men) believe that conflict is inevitable. It's a view strongly encouraged by those who make and sell the weapons and those who see war as a legitimate means to an end (people like Howard and Bush).

Thanks guys for your good words,

Let's all try some more effective, creative, less violent ways of developing better international relationships.

Teresa

...except, NO NEED to remove anyone's testicles??
