What do you think Jesus would say or do? In opposition to the teachings of Jesus, Christians have engaged in torture and murder that exceed that probably of the followers of all other religions. I don't know why Christians are so much more aggresively brutal in the name of religion than are Buddhists, Shintos, and Hindus, but the historical record is there. Let's face it, Americans (our Govt) have been torturing and killing Arabs/Moslems by the hundreds of 1000s. Madeleine Albright said the price was worth it for 500,000 young Iraqi children to die (AFTER the end of the Gulf War) because of imposed sanctions and bombing of infrastructure during and after the war. She said, "We think the price was worth it." Moslems have heard that justification for the killing of 500,000 children every week for 5 years (she said it on 60 Minutes in 1996). Actually, the toll is probably over one million young children by now. Let's see, 7000 New Yorkers killed x 80 = 560,000. How come we Americans have not heard every week for 5 years of our govt's justification of killing half a million children?

Hindus? You're kidding, right? Just last night I had dinner with a pastor from India who faces persecution daily from Hindus. He is pastoring a church in a slum area of Mumbai and has had to keep moving every few months to keep his family safe. Many people he knows have been killed and the numbers are easily in the thousands of Christians in the recent past who have been killed in that one area alone.

Why do folks like you repeat the same old tired leftist myths? It is either out of ignorance or duplicity.

Iraq has ALL the money it needs to feed kids (what, no one over 18 is dying also? Less drama there though huh?).

You know and I know tha Sadam has been building palaces and re-arming as fast as he cares to and THAT is the money you should be looking at to put some protein in the kiddos!<p.Why dont you state the obvious? Money is fungible and every penny spent on Sadam's ego could be spent elsewhere, but then your Evil-US train would run out of steam wouldn't it? Hypocrite.

"500,000 young Iraqi children to die (AFTER the end of the Gulf War)"

your right....it's all our fault(sarcasam/off)

Why aren't the Iraqi's themselves responsible.....they allowed themselves to be led/whipped into submission by that lunatic Sadam, whom they cow down to. We did what we had to do because the people of Iraq are to stupid, or cowardly to take care of it themselves.

With that said I would have gone all the way to bagdad and finished him off but for reasons I am not privy to we did not.

What do the deaths of Iraqi children have to do with biblical Christianity? As if Madeline Albright is an evangelical.

Loved your post. America-hating, Christian-bashing - a true soul-mate of Bin Laden.

You have got to be kidding. We haven't killed a SINGLE baby. If you're trying to blame sanctions on Iraq on us, you are gravely mistaken. One person holds the blame - Sadam. If he stuck to the things he agreed to at the end of the war, there would not be any sanctions (except military). To blame us because he chooses to keep all Iraq's money for himself, and not help his people is ludicrous. You have really bought into the Middle Eastern propaganda hook line, and sinker. I feel pity for you.

The best-researched estimate that I have seen is that over 40 million Christians have been suffered martyrdom for their faith over the past 20 centuries. The number continues to increase daily. No doubt, many of them suffered at the hands of people spouting vile lies and hatred just like you, Don.
