GUEST,Pacifist What if a pacificist was on flight 93? (99* d) RE: What if a pacificist was on flight 93? 09 Nov 01


Shame

I post at home and pay for it myself. It surprises me that you can't reply from home.

I thought I had tried to explain my attitude. There will be other pacifists who will not agree with my view. It may be based on experience of life.

I still believe that there are individuals who have to die to save the rest. If it Helps I'm not comfortable with it - but on the other hand I don't think that I would have been comfortable had I been Victor Jara having his hands smashed by the butt of a rifle bought by the USA and then being killed along with many of his countrymen who supported a democratically elected govenment which your country did not like. Again I would ask you to defend your view that the good ol' US of A can go around treating the rest of the world as their backyard and tell it what to do. Lokk at the Tokyo treaty and your views on global warming.

Many people see your country as greedy and self absorbed. You don't seem to be able, not personally, but as a country to address that. We're all entitled to the resources and the wealth and to govern our courties without Uncle Sam coming in and Screwing things up.

I'll sign out this because your no longer at work, bored, nothing to do but wind me up and I,m at home it's bedtime, and I think I would be better off hugging my wife than arguing.

All the best,

enjoy being in your office Monday.
