I found this posted on another site, and immediately the hateful post in the thread about religion came to mind. I think all of you should listen to this carefully and apply it to the whole world. This is not only about America, even though the speaker (RFK) talks about America, this is for all of us, every nation, every religion.

Religion came to be a conscience for the human if he was politician or a doctor or anyone.. but some people used it like a shop selling the greeds, hatred, and blood.. it is like that you give somebody a tool to lop the flowers's field but instead of that, he kills himself by that tool.. that is the Fact. Unfortunately, USA the first one who flames the fire, and she is the first one also who cries for her burnt finger.. that is the fact.

Thank you.

Thank you for sharing this video.

I think it is easier said than done. The nature world is not utopic. It is dystopic, and it will always be so. It does not mean that there is a kind of full-blown enmity. Such a thing does not exist (at least for me). : o)

Bad people are everywhere. I do not think it is really fair to blame the whole USA. Wink

Sister Shyone.. the picture you have put is very enough to scare a brave man like me.

Those beautiful words were spoken by Robert F. Kennedy, who was then murdered 41 years ago by an angry Arab.

Hey! The video shows the Twin Towers as if they were still standing!

Jamilion, thank you for the hateful post about the United States.

Shyone, is everything negative that anyone says hateful, even if it is true?

Would it be hateful to state that the German nation killed 6 million Jews and 4 million other Untermenschen in the middle of the last century? If I love Germans (which I do), do I have to pretend that never happened?

Would it be hateful to say that the Serbs slaughtered thousands of Muslims in Bosnia, or to say that the Europeans did nothing about it until the US sent in troops? If I love Serbs (which I do, a bit less than Germans), do I have to pretend that never happened?

Would it be hateful to state that Stalin's communist ideology led him to order the slaughter of 10 million Ukrainians? If I love Russians and Georgians (which I do), do I have to pretend that never happened?

I don't think these are hateful statements. These are true statements, just as a person doesn't have to hate Muslims to state that their religion exhorts them to violence against others. If I love Arabs (which I do, even though I often find them irritating), do I have to pretend they don't have a terrorism and human rights problem? A problem that they usually blame on others?
