Interesting comments..+ my personal point of view

I have been following the reports on BBC about Mr Bush's NEW strategy in Iraq, and I came across the comments of readers about the troop boost plan. I find some of them quite amusing :


'Blair and Bush are despised. The problem is, they both say they are supported by each others' countries - the only feasible justification left for their endless arrogance. Blair would look such a fool if Bush told the truth and said he didn't need him any more, and Bush would just as surely look even more of an idiot if Blair told the truth and said he only supported Bush because he thought the rest of the world would too. Isolate these two headless chickens and you isolate the problem in Iraq.'


'Bush and the USA should admit that the Iraq war is the greatest mistake in US history. They should then go to the UN and ask for international troops (300,000 at least) pay for them and then depart Iraq as soon as the UN troops arrive. In paralel China and India should urgently help develop and excecute an economic reconstruction plan for Iraq.That is the only way to peace.The US citizens then should decide if Bush and others responsible need to be tried for war crimes.'


'The invasion of Iraq has nothing to do with freedom, security, or democracy. It's an attempt by U.S. imperialism to maintain a foothold in the Eurasian continent for the sake of natural resources that benefit primarily the constituants of this corrupt american government. The american people voted for a democratic congress to voice their opposition to the war. Bush has made it clear that the voice of the people doesn't matter. Absolute power has corrupted this regime absolutely.'


........and there are a lot more. Most ppl hold opposing opinions against this so-called 'new plan' which certainly does not sound new to me.

What can I say about the world which is chaotic and has probably gone insane? What can I do about the violence in Iraq? What about the chaos in Middle East? What about Somalia?

Living in this world, I consistently have mixed feelings of despair and hope. To my despair, the world is in the process of decay; to my hope, my Lord Jesus has promised to come again, and all this chaos that's been happening has rightly fulfilled what the Bible prophesies, that means our Lord may come soon.

Well, the world is so big, yet it is so small. Right now I am sitting in a cosy, comfy and air-conditioned room in a developed country .I am physically so far from any part of the world. The problems of the world do not seem to bother me in the least. Yet through the internet I am reading the reports about the ppl who do not see the hope of tomorrow,whose lives may be lost in a split second. I feel I am close to them.

Lives are lost at a horrible rate in today's world, in my opinion, Gospel must be spread quickly because we are in a fierce battle against the enemy, namely Satan.

( Did I sound too serious? Hehe ... Enough of save-the-world speech. I'd better get back to my work now before my "boss" i.e the nurses yell)
