: Neglect can be considered violence, too. A past post by someone in Zimbabwe:
+++Definitely...it is also a way to prepare the ground...to "tenderize" the natives so they can be "saved".
+++It amazes me how readily people accept the notion that Terrorists exist all on their own, independent of what anyone has done to terrorize THEM in the first place. But the Think Tanks are ready for that one...they'll shrug it off by saying..."you mean EVERYTHING is the fault of the United States"? Laughter and disbelief in the background.
You mean the raid on New York had NOTHING to do with the United States declaring war on about the most ravaged country over there? Did the South have NOTHING to do with provoking the North in the Civil war...did the North have NOTHING to do with provoking the South? You mean there is NO connection between these things...are we supposed to censor ourselves to keep from sounding "foolish" by asking if the United States has not driven certain Muslims in the population to desperation? Or that this is exactly what it intended to do...and still does?
Let me see...where do our children first learn to accept pablum in place of nourishment...in school and on TV...where else?
