I really don't understand why you or me should be anything more worth than the average iraqi or afghan. But you seem willing to accept that your government without any legislation to back it up submits the average afghan or iraqi to torture. Would you accept those premises for yourself?

Pretty words. Peace on earth, goodwill towards men.

When there are those out there who would love to see you and your way of life wiped off the face of the earth, for no other reason than because you don't follow their religion, its kinda hard to play nice.
