This is a quick update to my earlier post about the situation of Iraqis at Jordan’s entry point. According to the Associated Press, Jordan and Syria are calling on the international community for help.
AMMAN, Jordan –Jordan and Syria complained Thursday they have been abandoned by the West to deal with the massive burden of more than 2 million Iraqi refugees who have fled the violence in their homeland. Both countries issued urgent calls for help at a conference on Iraqi refugees, specifically expanded resettlement opportunities in the West and financial assistance.
Milad Atiya, the Syrian ambassador to Jordan and head of his country’s delegation to the conference, said the international community "must be involved, especially the United States because its policy led to the plight the Iraqis are currently in and it bears responsibility." Jordanian Interior Ministry Secretary-General Mukheimar Abu-Jamous argued that Western nations "relinquished their responsibility in shouldering the Iraqi refugee burden, and we urge them to rise to their obligation and resettle the largest number possible of those Iraqis."

This is a good step towards improving the dire status. International intervention is what is needed at this moment and it is precisely what I suggested in the previous post.
And again,,Wars are the highest forms of terror.
That’s the cliche party-line of an apologist for terrorism. You may not be an actual terrorist, but you are definitely part of the problem.
Most of the kidnapping and killing are done by American supported death squad.
WOW!!!! AlurduniAlhurr, are you part of al Qaeda because it sure as hell sounds like it! DAMN! I get MY facts from Mercury??? You are one twisted bastard. All the people I mentioned above (and it is proven) are kidnapped, tortured and KILLED by al Qaeda. I would love to see you go tell the families of those who’ve been beheaded, as well as those fortunate enough to have escaped, that it was really the Americans the whole time. For God sakes al Qaeda ADMITS to it. They tape the damn things! They’re PROUD of it! They’re more than happy to kill the Iraqi people too, and have said so.
AlurduniAlhurr, I’m done with you. You’re a terrorist sympathizer (perhaps you ARE a terrorist) and I want NOTHING to do with you anymore, you twisted nutcase! Good-bye.

Just for the record,Any country comes under foreign occupation ,including Iraq has the right to defend it’s self,under international law.
Oh, well thanks for clearing that up for me. I do have a question though — Just how is killing thousands of innocent Iraqi civilians defending the country of Iraq? The civilians are the threat? Why don’t you go and tell Jill Carroll that it was okay that she was kidnapped and had her life threatened. The insurgents were just defending their country, seeing as how Jill was such a threat and all (those unarmed, innocent, journalists who try to get the true story of how Iraqis are oppressed — they’re some dangerous people you know). Better yet, go tell Tom Fox’s family (the PEACE activist who was AGAINST this war) that it’s okay that he was brutally kidnapped and killed. After all, he was such a threat to Iraq. While you’re at it, go tell Nick Berg’s family the same thing. Hell, Mary Ann Pearl lives in France. Go tell her that her husband’s kidnapping, torture, and beheading is absolutely justified (those journalists you know, such a threat). Tell her not to be sad. They were just defending themselves against an unarmed journalist. No, he wasn’t in Iraq. He was in Pakistan but it is all under al Qaeda. Go ahead, I’m sure that all those people will be relieved to know that al Qaeda was just defending themselves lawfully.

When one condones the actions of another, they are in turn supporting those actions. I do not condone the actions of those who kill innocent people, whether American or Arab. You have been defending the actions of the insurgents and blaming the U.S. — that shows support.
BTW, next time you post a link to antiwar.com, I’ll bury you in links from Jihadwatch. Don’t be such a punk.
AlurduniAlhurr,
So you were just asking those questions to get us to “incriminate” ourselves, before condemning us for being Americans, right? 😛
DM may care about your opinions of the US, but i don’t. Have a nice life.
“Look, you can believe what you want and say what you want. Bottom line is that you are supporting al Qaeda if you think that their actions are justified. That’s sick and twisted, and you’re not doing much for the Arab name by making these excuses.”
Just show me one word or sentence I wrote that indicate that I support AL Qaeda.
