Must Have Cried She must have cried our lady dear Her Heart must have broke when They don't understand devastation and pain
will never bring power Yet religious unrest is the flag Her burden is weighted more heavy ~ My Thoughts ~ As I sit here in my tiny world, the United States and her allies prepare for War on terrorism. I have searched my inner self trying to figure out all this madness. You see on TV all the wars played out in the eastern countries. Is it religious or is it fighting for the rights of every person living there that we ask ourselves? Somehow the messages get mixed up and the effort misconstrued. Millions of refugees are starving and dying in Afghanistan and for what? Is THIS a better world? Canada came through WWI and WWII unscathed. Not ever having a bombing like Pearl Harbor, we counted our blessings. We sent young and old, our women, men and boys to war to fight for freedom and our Country. Fighting for every country that wanted to be free. We lost our friends and family to a good cause but we will never be able to share our lives with them. We can only remember them. We lashed back by committing the German, Korean, Japanese, anyone we thought could be sympathetic to the cause, to a camp stuck way out in the northwest bush to work and slave. Removing them from community, businesses, and homes. Those people were Canadian citizens. Some born here and some immigrated here to escape their land. These people were accused to be guilty of crimes never to be defined. How could we have been so cruel? It took the Governments 50 years to apologize. We must never ever let this happen again. Grant it we had our own spies infiltrating our Government. Now the United States of America has been targeted once again by bombings. First Pearl Harbor then Oklahoma and now the Twin Towers of New York City. Why USA? Why now? Who are they and why do they hate the United States? Who is this leader of Network Terror? Again we have to ask ourselves is it religious, terrorists fueled by religious fervour, is it jealousy, is it propaganda to show the Afghanistan people that they are the Power? More than 5,000 lives were claimed by these terrorists on September 11, 2001. Not counting the families torn apart by the loss of so many lives both in North America and in 62 countries that had representatives working in the Trade Center. We need to rally and send a strong message to the terrorists that the U.S. has the support of its NATO Allies. The World will not tolerate terrorism. We must join efforts to fight terrorism. We need to protect ALL our Canadian and American citizens whether they were born and raised here or not. We must remember one thing, Timothy McVeigh was white. Did we target all whites? We need to make certain that all our facts are 100% and no mistaking untruths for truth. We need to help those suffering their loss from the Trade Center and keep this Nation on its feet. Show those terrorists "We Are Strong and United". We need to show them that they have not won. We need to show them that an act of terrorism will not instill fear preventing us from living a normal life, that it will only make us stronger. A fighting force to reckon with and that Our Country is not in a state of chaos, as they would have us. The Taliban declared its intention to fight back against an American invasion. They have declared that all Muslims, especially for Afghans, to wage a HOLY WAR. Taliban leader said that "God is on our side, and if the world's people try to set fire to Afghanistan, God will protect them and help them." Now is this not the word of a Fanatic? Have we not heard this line before? To the Terrorists, this act of barbarism you have caused my fellow Americans is unforgivable. This act you created was against the World and the right of freedom and democracy. It will be a war against specific individuals, not innocent people. We shall be the Victorious. Mistyshadows2u |
