- "It certainly hasn't been the Iraqi people, and "terrorism" is actually increasing moreso than we thought it would. However, weapons manufacturers like Lockheed Martin and oil companies like Halliburton are making a nice dollar. Draw your own conclusion."

- "False pretenses is entirely the issue. Iraq didn't have WMDs, though we were told they did, that's a false pretense if I've ever heard one. Let me ask one question, who has gained the most from this war?"

- "I gave my input on solutions, re-read the last paragraph. Bluntly it states, there is no solution. The ball is rolling, it's a matter of playing itself out now. If there ever is a solution, I'll be surprised if anyone is alive to see it."

- "We overthrew the most secular nation in the muslim world, because we wanted it to be more Jeffersonian? If you're righteous about democracy, how about starting in Saudi Arabia? Bush wanted a war, corporations wanted money, and Iraq was an easy target"

- "And how do you know Al Quaeda attacked because of religion? Because Peter Jennings told you? Taking out the foremost symbol of capitalistic trade (world trade center) sounds more like an act of political opposition than religious finaticism"

- "Where did I ever say that if we had left the world alone everything would be hunky dory. I'm in favor of righting the wrongs of the world, but I'm not in favor of doing it under false pretenses, corporate greed, and moralistic mayhem."

- "Do you honestly think Israel, that small scape of land surrounded by an entire muslim world could function without out pocket funding? Who do you think manufactures and sells them Apaches? Israel would cripple without our backing."

- "Indirectly waging war on Palestine: Israel wages war with Palestine everyday, and regularly takes out Hamas leaders because they're "terrorists" (even though Hamas is about the equivalent in Palestine as the Red Cross is here, with an added militia)."

- "over other countries and oppress them with needless sanctions (Iraq) and indirectly wage war on Palestine (pocket funding Israel anyone?). Others are tired of being oppressed too, but they're "terrorists"? Where's the consistency?"

- "I don't ignore the freedom of speech I was given, matter of fact, that's the whole point of the editorial. Why do I have this freedom of speech? Because people were tired of being looked over, and oppressed. Much like we look over other countries and o"

- "that's your opinion, but eluding I'm somehow novice in my writing is clearly not the case.
The point, is the word "terrorist," the stigma attached to it, and the subsequent hypocrisy of the word everytime our leaders speak of it.
I hope my candor di"

- "fair to me or you. I'm fairly educated in world history and moreso in poli-sci so I don't know what you mean by "somewhat informed."
It's an editorial with some clear facts in it from which I draw a conclusion, if you disagree with that conclusion t"

- "I appreciate your candidness, and I would even agree I stretch some facts a bit to get the larger point across, but naive? Hardly.
If you want to debunk the naivity feel free, even if you need to rant. Implying I'm naive and not elaborating is hardly"

- "Maybe there is some duality in this, like coming to terms with yourself, or perhaps not but I guess it's open for interpretation. As always this is written like an absolute pro, and I would KILL to hear it recited. Excellent."

- "Wow purr this was so staccato with imagery it really portrayed a frantic state of mind, well done there. I hope I'm reading it right, and if I am I'd have to agree that I have a few wolves I'd like to let in, regardless of my duty to ward them off. Mayb"

- "Color me speechless. I've read all 4 parts purr and I just really don't know what to say other than it was my pleasure to read them. All I can do is admire it for what it is, absolutely outstanding poetry. Take a bow."

- "Thanks. I actually wrote this about a month ago and this is the second incarnation of it as the first was even more forced in my opinion. I may polish it up even more later but I'm content with it for now. Thanks for the comments."

- "Coming from you purr that's quite the compliment. Thanks for the other comments too guys, I was trying to give the poem a radial feel and really enjoyed writing it, glad to see y'all enjoyed reading it."
