One
man's terrorist is another man's hero
Now
that the Americans have a demented Saddam Hussain, George W. Bush is
talking about trying him, which is all well and good. But who is going
to try George Bush and Tony Blair for the crimes they have committed
and continue to commit against the Iraqi people?
Who will try Ronald Reagan for the crime he committed against the
Libyans?
If it is true Osama bin Laden is responsible for the attack on the
Twin Towers in New York, then he can be called a terrorist. However,
people from Central America to the Middle East see bin Laden as a
hero, and why? Because of the terror and oppression they and their
loved ones have suffered at the hands of American sponsored dictators.
I remember when the American and British were amassing their forces to
invade Iraq and Arab women warned that they had one bin Laden but
after the invasion they will have a hundred bin Ladens (that was on
BBC).
Mr. Editor, no one in his/her right mind would support terrorism, but
as the man on CBS said, one man's terrorist is another man's hero, and
if big Uncle Sam continues to bully smaller nations many more
terrorists will rise up to be regarded as heroes.
