There is no moral difference between withholding treatment, food or water which results in a person’s death and shooting them or giving them a lethal injection. No moral difference at all.

To those who say, but it is a natural and beautiful thing, one can only say, “For you.”

When one withholds treatment, food or water, one is actively killing a human being. No more, no less.

The “natural death process” Terri Schiavo is being killed with is a horrible painful ordeal, lasting so far eight days. It is not painless, at least they are now giving her morphine. By the way, did anyone ask, "Why the need for morphine for a vegetable?" No, no one asked because they know the answer, she is brain damaged, but concious, aware, sentient, a live human being, not a vegetable. Her lawyer testifies she asked to live, but the judge said, "You should have asked three days ago." An "officer of the court" said she asked to live, the judge blew him off. Why, because she must die to maintain the system and feed the deatheaters. There is no justice in a legal system, except the odd mistake. Too bad Terri must die to satisfy the deatheaters and the blind judge.

Why is this going on? Because the legal system condemned her to death in absentia, a “judge” on a mission, a deatheater. No court will overturn his decision, it would adversely affect their “god status.”

We reap what we sew, more or less. Terri married outside her own belief system, she married a deatheater and is paying for her mistake with her life.

The President, the Congress and the Governor claim to see the Terri Schiavo case as wrong. It is not a “right to die”, but a right not to be murdered issue. Unfortunately, they are all powerless against an all powerful blind Circuit Court who rules to kill. Powerless or unable to act due to paralysis. If they are, in fact, powerless, we do not need them, do we? If they are unable to act due to paralysis, we do not need them, do we? A real man would act.

Regardless of how one categorizes or describes the US military action in Somalia, when all is said and done, it was essentially a "War on Starvation." We all have our personal opinions as to the use of the US military in such a role, and how deeply, if at all we support UN activities. Having said all that, it was only a little over a decade ago that the most powerful military in the world was sent halfway around the globe to bring relief to the starving. Some of America’s most elite soldiers engaged in vicious combat to capture those who were interdicting the flow of food to the hungry. As you read this, a woman lay starved and dehydrated in a Florida hospice. There's no shortage of food supplies in the state. There's no hostile warlord ambushing convoys of humanitarian relief. There's no need to boil or purify water for consumption, hell there's probably an open tap yards from her bed...The world has gone mad.

Starvation Somali style. Note the apparent look of euphoria.

Mohammed Farah Aideed: employed starvation to achieve his political ends. Ironically, in early August 1996, Aideed was shot twice, one of the bullets passing through his stomach. Aideed lingered for several days, and although accounts of his death vary, it is believed he would have been unable to eat.

Mohammed Farah Greer: employed starvation to achieve his political ends. This fat prick looks about two cheeseburgers short of a coronary. He may want to consider skipping a meal or two, himself.
