Afghanistan Sentences a Christian to Death: Surprising?

Edited on Fri Mar-24-06 08:57 PM by Clarkie1

Not really.

"Freedom and dignity spring from within the human heart. They are not imposed. And inside the human heart is where the impetus for political change must be generated.... if the events of the last year tell us anything, it is that democracy in the Middle East is unlikely to come at the point of our gun."

-Wes Clark

1. " democracy in the Middle East is unlikely to come at the point of our gun

Every time he makes a statement of an observation, he just makes so much sense. Why do so many of the American people work so hard to be so misinformed and ignorant of what is really going on around them? I think that is the scariest part of the Bush phenomenon. Not only did they just exploit that weakness, they developed and fostered it. And, that is truly evil.

Wesley Clark is a true leader, a principled American. :applause:
