Dear Editor – Editorial Boards

SUBJECT: Iraq/Unanswered Questions!

America’s intervention in Iraq has become a war of unanswered
questions!

The associated press reported that Rebecca Suell in Tyler, Texas wants
answers, and not the ones the U.S. Army is giving her. Since April
2003, over 17, U. S. Troops has committed suicide. Why, does the Army
keep calling the last letter her husband sent to her, the one he mailed
from Iraq on June 15, a suicide note? Can taking a bottle of Tylenol
really kill you?

In addition, how he got his hands on a bottle of Tylenol in the middle
of the desert any way? Questions, questions, questions, the war of
questions continue over this war with Iraq, also known as the Project for
a New American Century---as explained on the Internet.

There are no answers, because no questions were asked before the war
began. After 911, American failed to ask why are fellow human beings mad
at us and those who stands with us.

Questions remain, who and what cooperation’s will benefit from this war
with Iraq? Are nations mad at us because we give billions of dollars
to Israel to fight the Palestinians?

When did our President first decide to fight this war with Iraq? How
much money would be diverted from the American citizens to take down a
foreign leader of a sovereign nation? Who provided the intelligence to
substantiate the war with Iraq? Who determined that they possessed
weapons of mass destruction? Who will find America’s weapons of mass
destruction---and should they to be eliminated?

How many funerals have our president attended for those killed in Iraq?
How many of our sons and daughters will return home as veterans, with
disabilities, and then be forced to wait for 12 months to see a medical
specialist at a VA Hospital. Rebecca, Suell is right to ask questions,
in contrast to other citizens who refuse to question their government.

Why must retired disability veterans be required to make co-payments
for their medicine? Why no free dental care for retired disabled
veterans? Why are they required to pay their own travel pay to VA hospital?
Why do retired disabled veterans lose part of their retirement
pay-----if they acquired a disability while on active duty? Why are divorced
veterans required to give up 50 percent of their retirement pay---to
their spouse?

Why is there no chiropractic care at VA hospitals? Why are active duty
personnel on welfare? Why do our politicians scream patriotism while
cutting veterans benefits---at the same time? Where is the real support
for those who serve their country in peace and in time of war?

Will the war with Iraq go down in history as the completion of the
Project for A New American Century? Every question deserves an answer, and
every answer should meet the needs of the question. This war with
Iraq may be the best mirror for America to see herself as the world sees
her. Moreover, there is hope for America, if she will only become a
Christian nation, something she has never been.

In addition, America’s history proves this point—by how she landed on
the native Americans. Therefore, America must begin to treat fellow
human beings, as she wants to be treated by other nations of the world.
Until then questions will continue to be asked---- by the real patriots
of this Republic. What have we done to others for them to hate us so
much, and are willing to die in order to be heard? Super power does not
mean to drive your beliefs and traditions down the neck of others.
Answers are required to the questions. Peace!
