Please
Restore My Faith

Well, it's happened again. I have lost my faith in humanity
and since I believe that God is in each of us, and not a separate
being, losing faith in humanity for me is the same as losing
faith in God.
The last time this happened was during "Desert Storm."
I couldn't bear to watch the news then. Night after night,
those hellish images of the so called "smart bombs" exploding
in populated areas killing so many innocent people.
And now, it's starting all over again. What's wrong with
America?
I don't like to use the word evil. To me it sounds simple;
nevertheless, to many people it sounds a lot more powerful
than using the word "wrong." So here I go...
What the Terrorist did to the WTC and the Pentagon was an
act of evil. Yes the terrorist killed thousands of innocent
Americans, and their collaborators need to be brought to justice;
however, in no way does that justify America's slaughter of
the innocent in Afghanistan in order to reach the guilty.
Now we become the terrorist, the evil-doers. George W. Bush
is quite literally holding the country of Afghanistan hostage.
He has declared "Hand over bin Laden or else."
So he continues to bomb the crap out of their country, and
then in order to ease his guilty conscience, he has the gall
to ask our children to donate money to ease the suffering
of his victims.
Wake up America! Why can't you see the hypocrisy here?
Please wake up America, stop the slaughter of innocents,
I'd like to have my faith back.
