Truce, no way saysUSA !!!

Tolerance, understanding, peace loving and above all standing for FORGIVENESS.... who could this be ... Bin Laden ? Well perhaps in the minds of many Americans I go to far, but its true. Just read this :

We know that the majority of your people want this war to end and based on the substance of the polls, which indicate Americans do not want to fight Muslims on Muslim land, nor do they want Muslims to fight them on their land, we do not mind offering a long-term truce based on just conditions that we will
stand by ... a truce that offers security and stability and the rebuilding of Iraq and Afghanistan that war has destroyed ... And there is nothing wrong with this solution except that it deprives the influential people and warlords in America from hundreds of billions of dollars - those who supported [President George W] Bush's election campaign with billions of dollars.
- Osama bin Laden on tape, January 18

So what does this mean, and why would it be approved by me ? Well I know that the attacks of 9/11 killed many innocent lives, yes but so has the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. I know what your saying " But they started it !", well this is like grade school childern mentality. You have a chance to end a war that the Bush Administration has claimed may last our lifetime. You can see what it is that Bin Laden and his network wants and perhaps move to building bridges rather then burning them. This war was started out of misunderstaning and dislike and mistrust. But the chances the US will accept this are slim and none. The Milliarty makes to much money and the pro-Isreal and Oil factors will keep it alive. All I can say is if given the chance to end this war and end for the most part [ not all, spliter groups or other raidcals could enter the fray] terrorists attacks it should be done. I see Brittain, the US and so many other countries losing freedoms and money out of fear of attacks. Why radom checks with no cause are now legal and on going in England. The US has the Pat Act extended and on and on.

This message proves those acts are feeble, useless and the only saftey that we and when I mean we I mean both sides, all people can have in terms of saftey is to sit down, listen and negociate a truce. Both sides may not like all the points but it sure beats all out fear and war for years to come. The Asian times has a great article you must read about this that makes some good points.

Why is it people are so ready to just hear the line " We will not deal with Terrorists " and accept the fact this conflict must go on in the view of the American Goverment, surely these people do not beleive they can win, you would need to exterminate the people, and that includes alot of countries like Pakistan which the US considers allies in order to rid this faction from the world. No by saying no thanks, we pass and lets just keep fighting the US Admin to me would prove they do not want peace, they want war, have always sought war and will continues to seek war even if this group is vanquished.
