Surrounded By Hundreds of Iraqi-Americans

Today I was surrounded by hundreds of Iraqi-Americans. It was great! Assyrians in Chicago had a rally in one of the City parks to demonstrate their complete solidarity with the vow of President Bush to remove Saddam and his regime from power. Speakers included Assyrian-American politicians, other area politicians seeking votes, an Assyrian serviceman on his way to Iraq, highly decorated veterans of other fights for freedom including Normandy.

It was a cold day with a bitter wind but that did not deter this gathering of patriots from calling for total support from America for its military effort in their ancient ancestral homeland.

Flags and placards waved in the bright sun carried by young and old. Old Glory unfolded over all joined by flags of one of the oldest nations on earth, Assyria. And a fine flag it is. I think I will get one.

Today's Assyrians are not the dread armies of old but Christians calling out for Liberty and Freedom for their fellow Iraqis. Many carried placards with the portraits and names of Iraqis murdered by Saddam and his thugs. A graphic illustration of the face of terror and the nature of Saddam's Terror routinely ignored by the "Anti-War" demonstrators.

We listened as a veteran of Normandy called for support of President Bush and linked his fight on the beaches of France to that on the deserts of Iraq. This came from a man who had shed his blood for his nation and was the 2d highest decorated Assyrian-American. A man whom we should listen too rather than Michael Moore or Martin Sheen.

Opinions to the contrary the real people of Chicago are patriots and support the removal of Saddam and his regime of Terror.

God Bless our Leaders in this Just Cause.

As a citizen of the United Nations why would you give a sh!t about the Constitution. Article IV is a stretch anyway if you want to use it for cowardly support of the U.N.. Section 4 of Article IV, actually is an argument against U.S. participation in the United Nations.

You can't have it both ways; you want to submit to U.N. authority, an organization whose member states are a majority of dictatorships or totalitarian governments, an organization that has more Muslim States than Republics. If that is your decision than give up the protection you are granted by the Constitution. I don’t trust people who hold dual citizenship; they tend to be two faced back stabbers.

Under the U.N.'s Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the only right you have is to obey the U.N., so enjoy your citizenship, and let me know if you ever want to defend your precious little Non-Nation. I'll gladly give you the opportunity.

“Beno”, isn't that some kind of medicine to prevent Gas? It doesn't seem to be working; you consistently fart from your mouth, you must be suffering some bad cramps

I think some of them will have a role in the new Iraq. Many are still connected with their families there.

I see that Mr. Arnett has been fired. Now, he must be arrested.

The UN was established, in part, to prevent the rise on new tyrants like Hitler. Like its predecessor, the League of Nations, it has failed that charge and now sides more with the tyrants than Freedom Lovers.

Perhaps you are unaware of the colossal history of failure which is the UN. But it has only been successful with the power of the US without that power it is less than useless.

Now it is subject to the will of the King of Clowns, France.
Say bye-bye UN. I know you can.
