Al Jazeera: Dennis Kucinich: The only presidential candidate...
willing to save America from a Bloodbath

http://www.aljazeerah.info/Opinion%20editorials/2004%20opinions/Feb/21%20o/Dennis%20Kucinich%20The%20only%20presidential%20candidate%20willing%20to%20save%20America%20from%20a%20bloodbath%20By%20Jane%20Stillwater.htm

(snip)
America, it's time that we see the bigger picture. Killing people won't get us into Heaven. We can't indiscriminately slaughter millions of women and children -- as America has consistently done in the past 50 years -- and then sit back and expect The Rapture to come knocking at our door. "If you can't bear the cross then you can't wear the crown." This the reason why Jesus Christ will be our hero for all eternity and people like Bush and bin Ladin will merely end up in jail.

What would Jesus -- and Mohammed and Buddha -- do if they were American registered voters? I'm willing to bet the farm that they would vote for Dennis Kucinich.

The majority of delegates to the Democratic convention are yet to be chosen. There's still plenty of time to vote for Congressman Kucinich -- and to put pressure on the powers that be to end America's lose-lose situation in Iraq before we witness even more American bloodbaths.

5. ridiculously wrong on many levels
First of all, the site isn't the same well-known "al-Jazeera" satellite station out of Qatar (or its just as excellent internet versions), but another website of a similar name. I'm familiar with this page, they mostly just collect news & op/ed pieces from around the net and reprint them--and a good collection of them most times. You can find this article linked at the Kucinich.us page.. not sure where it was originally submitted if not al-jazeerah.info (still a different page from the excellent satellite network). The piece is written by Jane Stillwater (that's a very white-sounding name, by the way, so no Pre-Terror racial qualities are to be assumed), take your shit up with her.

Secondly, your assumptions appear to be appallingly racist. Firstly, al-Jazeera or any Arab = "terrorist"? If that's how you think, fuck you and the hate radio windbags that you actually rather resemble. Secondly (and a backdoor mei culpa for me if it wasn't intended that way), if you're so weak that you just expect that assumption and don't even attempt to challenge it, I still curse you for being a deadweight liability.

7. perhaps I was a bit rude
had I the ability, half of the 2nd paragraph would disappear.. though to be sure, the other half and the first would be untouched.

To cravenly bow beneath "Faux and the hate-radio windbags" is to capitulate and just helps along their work.

6. This is not Al-Jazeera the Quatari TV network
This is Aljazeerah, an independent opinion website out of Atlanta, GA.

The TV Network is here: http://english.aljazeera.net/
