Why Won't Bush Speak To Her?

[Edwina's Secretary]

This is exactly the kind of blatant, mawkish, emotional manipulation this administration has been using to justify this war!

A few facts..... Suicide bombers are not ripped from their mothers' breast. They volunteer often with the full knowledge and consent of the family. Suicide bombing has been used in Israel by Palestinians for years and years ...male and female..... where are the tears for those mothers? Why weren't the marines sent in there?

And of course....that all important question....if these suicide bombers are Pakistani and Afganistan....why are we in Iraq????? The US military repeatly has stated that, until recently, most suicide bombers were from OUTSIDE Iraq.

Why it is okay for a US soldier to volunteer to die for his country, for what he believes in, but not a Arab? Did you read the interview with a guy who is in training to be a suicide bomber (TIme or Newsweek....can't remember.) He is PROUD to do it.

We have heard how Sheehan feels about her son's death, but have you heard the sentiment of those Arab mothers, or is it an assumption?

I keep hearing that freedom of speech is one of the reason we are at war....but then turn around and hear...."you are wrong if you use your freedom of speech to state a position contrary to ours!"

So now we are in Iraq so mothers there won't be beheaded.

And I thought it was because of WMD....or 9/11....or getting rid of Saddam.

And by the way.....is anyone REALLY expected to believe that Iraq is the most male dominated society in the world????????

So Cindy Sheehan should not disagree with her husband, but Iraqi women should....what arrogance!

Yes...let's focus on what is really important....our sons and daughters and their safe return from this war.
