Hmmm. Wonder how many Iraqi refugees are living in Jordan and Lebanon?
Millions I hear. Not safe enough to go home. They only go home if
forced.
Wonder what the conditions are in those camps? Heard anything about the
camps on CNN lately? No. Maybe our sensibilities haven't changed much.
Ron:
that's exactly what I mean, The gold in the hills of Georgia that
ushered the removal act, is now the black gold found in the deserts of
the middle east. One must wonder if history will repeat itself.
not if...
Maybe we can bang pots and pans together to show our displeasure... I'm
getting tired of contacting my Senators and Representative.

Marsha,
To begin to heal, I must believe that things are relative.
Trail of tears, Auschwitz, Baton, the list goes on.
the U.S. gov. is an abstract ideal not a concrete entity.
an abstract Ideal embraced by humanitarians, bigots and
opportunists alike. Those events must be remembered, not as
atrocities committed by our gov. but representative of injustice
and tyranny even in the most free of societies as a call to
vigilance. It should speak to the sensibilities we hold today.
It should call them into question as a standard to measure
our current policies.
Here is a documentary about the Trail of Tears. It indicates that the
high ideals of the Founding Fathers were not all that is stated. Down
the page is the mp3 downloads for
Trail of Tears - Part 1
Trail of Tears - Part 2

Listen and weep.
Greatest country that ever existed? NOT!
