Raed in the Middle
Violence is never the answer.
The extremely shallow foreign police of the American administration gives wrong indications, it proved for everyone in the Middle East region that violence is the only language that they understand…
I was watching one of the public discussion programs at Al-Jazeera channel, where an extremely angry man was shouting:
Americans are democratic for themselves, but for us? not at all. They don’t even know the meaning of diplomacy and politics. The only language they understand is the language of explosions. Tell me… why did Americans withdraw from Somalia? Because of peace talks or because of killing their soldiers brutally? Why did Israel, the untouchable daughter of the Americans, go out of Lebanon? Wasn’t that because of the unbearable pressure of Hizb Allah? Why did Americans leave Lebanon in the early eighties? Wasn’t that because a car bomb killed some dozens of their soldiers and civilians?
I would like to have a different answer for Mr. Extremist, but I just wish I could.
