But look at some of the comments he's made in public international settings - he's an embarrassment to our country.

wells, the alternatives to him in some of those other parties aren't all that great either ..

I am pro war and I hate all Canadian Protesters, especially the ones in KINGSTON!!, ontario. You peple disgust me with a passion. I will never vote Liberal again. This is the first time in my life where I actually care about politics. Jean Chretian has to go, period. I consider him one of the worst PMS in Canada's history, at least in my life time.

I think u totally read my mind! Im sure these protestors were the same ones who protested to stop Saddam gassing the kurds in the late 80's. Now they are anti-war. It seems like people like to protest cause its cool...

It is called new wave communism and students are the medium... the communist countries love this protesting...

Why arent France, Germany and Russia helping? Seems like Iraq owes them billions of dollars and if the government is overthrown the only get 5 cents on the dollar...

Chretien is a pussy.. Who would be the first to protect us... the USA.
Cant wait till he is gone.

The jihad is against Western Life, and thats exactly what we live, right?

The USA is fighting for our way of life where democracy rules.

I cant beleive someone called Bush a nazi.. come on.

Who are you to say that democracy is the best way to live? Americans are only fighting this war for their own good. Do you really think they care about Iraqis? For the same reason Russians, Germans and French are protesting this war - not cause they care about Iraqies, but because they are far worse economically because of that.

Saddam had to be stopped. But not by those means. Now he'll just continue all this bullshit with his money in some other country.

What the American Flag Stands For
by Charlotte Aldebron

The American flag stands for the fact that cloth can be very important. It is against the law to let the flag touch the ground or to leave the flag flying when the weather is bad. The flag has to be treated with respect. You can tell just how important this cloth is because when you compare it to people, it gets much better treatment. Nobody cares if a homeless person touches the ground. A homeless person can lie all over the ground all night long without anyone picking him up, folding him neatly and sheltering him from the rain.
School children have to pledge loyalty to this piece of cloth every morning. No one has to pledge loyalty to justice and equality and human decency. No one has to promise that people will get a fair wage, or enough food to eat, or affordable medicine, or clean water, or air free of harmful chemicals. But we all have to promise to love a rectangle of red, white, and blue cloth.
Betsy Ross would be quite surprised to see how successful her creation has become. But Thomas Jefferson would be disappointed to see how little of the flag's real meaning remains.

Charlotte Aldebron, 12, wrote this essay for a competition in her 6th grade English class. She attends Cunningham Middle School in Presque Isle, Maine. Comments may be sent to her mom, Jillian Aldebron: [email protected]

Now if you have strong negative feelings about this don't be pricks and go cussing at a 12-year old kid allright?

Again, don't know if this was posted or not, also a good read.

Middle East Time Line
(revised, 12 Dec. 2001)
By Stephen R. Shalom

The list below presents some specific incidents of U.S. policy in the Middle
East. The list minimizes the grievances against the United States in the
region because it excludes more generalized long-standing policies, such as
U.S. backing for authoritarian regimes (arming Saudi Arabia, training the
secret police in Iran under the Shah, providing arms and aid to Turkey as it
ruthlessly attacked Kurdish villages, etc.). The list also excludes many
actions of Israel in which the United States is indirectly implicated
because of its military, diplomatic, and economic backing for Israel.


1947-48: U.S. backs Palestine partition plan. Israel established. U.S.
declines to press Israel to allow expelled Palestinians to return.

1949: CIA backs military coup deposing elected government of Syria.1

1953: CIA helps overthrow the democratically-elected Mossadeq government in
Iran (which had nationalized the British oil company) leading to a
quarter-century of repressive and dictatorial rule by the Shah, Mohammed
Reza Pahlevi.

1956: U.S. cuts off promised funding for Aswan Dam in Egypt after Egypt
receives Eastern bloc arms.

1956: Israel, Britain, and France invade Egypt. U.S. does not support
invasion, but the involvement of its NATO allies severely diminishes
Washington's reputation in the region.

1958: U.S. troops land in Lebanon to preserve "stability".

early 1960s: U.S. unsuccessfully attempts assassination of Iraqi leader,
Abdul Karim Qassim.2

1963: U.S. supports coup by Iraqi Ba'ath party (soon to be headed by Saddam
Hussein) and reportedly gives them names of communists to murder, which they
do with vigor.3

1967-: U.S. blocks any effort in the Security Council to enforce SC
Resolution 242, calling for Israeli withdrawal from territories occupied in
the 1967 war.

1970: Civil war between Jordan and PLO. Israel and U.S. discuss intervening
on side of Jordan if Syria backs PLO.

1972: U.S. blocks Egyptian leader Anwar Sadat's efforts to reach a peace
agreement with Israel.

1973: Airlifted U.S. military aid enables Israel to turn the tide in war
with Syria and Egypt.

1973-75: U.S. supports Kurdish rebels in Iraq. When Iran reaches an
agreement with Iraq in 1975 and seals the border, Iraq slaughters Kurds and
U.S. denies them refuge. Kissinger secretly explains that "covert action
should not be confused with missionary work."4

1975: U.S. vetoes Security Council resolution condemning Israeli attacks on
Palestinian refugee camps in Lebanon.5

1978-79: Iranians begin demonstrations against the Shah. U.S. tells Shah it
supports him "without reservation" and urges him to act forcefully. Until
the last minute, U.S. tries to organize military coup to save the Shah, but
to no avail.6

1979-88: U.S. begins covert aid to Mujahideen in Afghanistan six months
before Soviet invasion in Dec. 1979.7 Over the next decade U.S. provides
training and more than $3 billion in arms and aid.

1980-88: Iran-Iraq war. When Iraq invades Iran, the U.S. opposes any
Security Council action to condemn the invasion. U.S. soon removes Iraq from
its list of nations supporting terrorism and allows U.S. arms to be
transferred to Iraq. At the same time, U.S. lets Israel provide arms to Iran
and in 1985 U.S. provides arms directly (though secretly) to Iran. U.S.
provides intelligence information to Iraq. Iraq uses chemical weapons in
1984; U.S. restores diplomatic relations with Iraq. 1987 U.S. sends its navy
into the Persian Gulf, taking Iraq's side; an overly-aggressive U.S. ship
shoots down an Iranian civilian airliner, killing 290.

1981, 1986: U.S. holds military maneuvers off the coast of Libya in waters
claimed by Libya with the clear purpose of provoking Qaddafi. In 1981, a
Libyan plane fires a missile and U.S. shoots down two Libyan planes. In
1986, Libya fires missiles that land far from any target and U.S. attacks
Libyan patrol boats, killing 72, and shore installations. When a bomb goes
off in a Berlin nightclub, killing three, the U.S. charges that Qaddafi was
behind it (possibly true) and conducts major bombing raids in Libya, killing
dozens of civilians, including Qaddafi's adopted daughter.8

1982: U.S. gives "green light" to Israeli invasion of Lebanon,9 killing some
17 thousand civilians.10 U.S. chooses not to invoke its laws prohibiting
Israeli use of U.S. weapons except in self-defense. U.S. vetoes several
Security Council resolutions condemning the invasion.

1983: U.S. troops sent to Lebanon as part of a multinational peacekeeping
force; intervene on one side of a civil war, including bombardment by USS
New Jersey. Withdraw after suicide bombing of marine barracks.

1984: U.S.-backed rebels in Afghanistan fire on civilian airliner.11

1987-92: U.S. arms used by Israel to repress first Palestinian Intifada.
U.S. vetoes five Security Council resolution condemning Israeli repression.

1988: Saddam Hussein kills many thousands of his own Kurdish population and
uses chemical weapons against them. The U.S. increases its economic ties to
Iraq.

1988: U.S. vetoes 3 Security Council resolutions condemning continuing
Israeli occupation of and repression in Lebanon.

1990-91: U.S. rejects any diplomatic settlement of the Iraqi invasion of
Kuwait (for example, rebuffing any attempt to link the two regional
occupations, of Kuwait and of Palestine). U.S. leads international coalition
in war against Iraq. Civilian infrastructure targeted.12 To promote
"stability" U.S. refuses to aid post-war uprisings by Shi'ites in the south
and Kurds in the north, denying the rebels access to captured Iraqi weapons
and refusing to prohibit Iraqi helicopter flights.13

1991-: Devastating economic sanctions are imposed on Iraq. U.S. and Britain
block all attempts to lift them. Hundreds of thousands die. Though Security
Council had stated that sanctions were to be lifted once Saddam Hussein's
programs to develop weapons of mass destruction were ended, Washington makes
it known that the sanctions would remain as long as Saddam remains in power.
Sanctions in fact strengthen Saddam's position. Asked about the horrendous
human consequences of the sanctions, Madeleine Albright (U.S. ambassador to
the UN and later Secretary of State) declares that "the price is worth
it."14

1991-: U.S. forces permanently based in Saudi Arabia.

1993-: U.S. launches missile attack on Iraq, claiming self-defense against
an alleged assassination attempt on former president Bush two months
earlier.15

1998: U.S. and U.K. bomb Iraq over the issue of weapons inspections, even
though Security Council is just then meeting to discuss the matter.

1998: U.S. destroys factory producing half of Sudan's pharmaceutical supply,
claiming retaliation for attacks on U.S. embassies in Tanzania and Kenya and
that factory was involved in chemical warfare. Evidence for the chemical
warfare charge widely disputed.16

2000-: Israel uses U.S. arms in attempt to crush Palestinian uprising,
killing hundreds of civilians.
