I know that we the people of the United States have always felt that we were right and the other countries were always wrong. Over the many years we have gone into countries with our superior condescending attitude and exploited the different countries for their gold, diamonds, copper, silver and oil, with the help of their corrupt leaders. The leaders and our countries large corporations have gotten rich. The many citizens of those countries have remained poor and have been ill-treated. Finally that started to fight back against the people they felt had helped put them in the bad situation they found themselves.
Our country calls them terrorist because they supposedly bombed the Twin Towers. Now we have all these people in Guantanamo prison. We call them enemy combatants, they fought for their country, or were paid to do a job. After all they need to work to make a living. Now can someone please tell me the difference between enemy combatants working for their county and our ex-military-mercenary-fighters (Blackwatch) being paid large salaries to go to Iraq and others countries to fight and kill for the United States. We seem to have a double standard about people’s rights, and who are terrorist. People from other countries think we are terrorist when we go into their countries and do the same thing that they do when they come into the United States.

Terrorist
September 28, 2006
Terrorist—We hear this word terrorist all the time. We have them everywhere and they come in all kinds and sizes. We have always had terrorist, caused by believe it or not, religion, class differences and greed.
Children have often been terrorized by people in power. In their own homes, in schools, both public and private. Especially orphans in religious, private and State run orphanages.
Unfortunate poor people are terrorized by government establishments, where they go looking for help. Employees working for the government treat them with contempt (not all of them, but the majority) and act like any help they give comes out of their pocket. They have a very malevolent attitude not a benevolent one, as they should, as they are there to help people not mistreat them. It should give them a good feeling to be able to help someone less fortunate than themselves. Instead some people are treated like a beggar with leprosy like in the old days.
Most are looking for a place to stay, food to eat as they have children to feed and take care of. Most can only find part-time work, some have no way to get to work, other than walk miles or find some kind soul to take them. Some do not have telephones, much less computers. Getting help was bad, but soon it will be worse, as the State has decided, they will now have to call in or go online in order to get food stamps and other help. Seems they want to close many of the offices of the Texas Department of Human services. Frankly I had rather our tax money be spent to keep the offices open and help poor people, than pay for all the pomp and circumstances of a bunch of dishonest lousy politicians.
What little money they can earn is used for rent and utilities, which is often not enough. They get behind and worry about being evicted and having their utilities shut off, and they often are. We have paid in our utilities for years, money to help these people, and the governor cut them off, but still takes money from our utilities. I guess he and the other politicians get to use the money for all of their POMP. When these people are evicted and utilities are cut off and they can’t pay, they move from one run down place to another. They live on food stamps, which is never really enough to feed a family.
The majority of these people are uneducated, with no money and no way to better themselves. What clothes they have are purchased at garage sales, Goodwill, Salvation Army or they are given to them. There is no one in their corner to help them. Most of their families are in the same boat. Some will live with other relatives and share food, rent and utilities. Some get into Housing, but if their credit report is bad, they are turned away. Living like this is a kind of terror most people do not know anything about. I know these things are true because I have helped people in this condition and circumstance. We have a lot of homeless people and they would prefer to live on the street and under overpasses after going for help and being treated so bad and questioned by the states Gestapo. People with children can’t do this, as they have to keep the children in school. State employees act like the people prefer to live like this.
I see people put their hand on the Bible and swear to uphold the law of the land. But they don’t swear to uphold the laws in the Bible in regard to the poor and downtrodden. Deuteronomy, Chapter 15 vs. 11, “For the poor shall never cease out of the land. Therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt open thine hand wide unto thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy, in thy land.
There is retribution for those who oppress or neglect the poor.
