Saddam and how his greatness changed America...
The blogosphere and television stations will publicize the death of Saddam Hussein but not remember those whose lives were wrongly taken away from them. On this day, regardless if you are Christian or Muslim, we should publicly attest to the fact that there is just but one God...
The Foundation for the Defense of Democracies posted four videos of actual torture and murder that took place under Saddam Hussein's regime. Regretably, the videos will not be televised as Americans we are fearful of learning of atrocities that occur on the planet. Most Americans will only pay attention long enough to listen to the thirty second soundbites we have became accustomed to. If American's however were to see videos, then maybe they may stop waiting for the problem to go away, but instead will stand to reason and demand swift immediate action wherever atrocities occur. It may even cause us to spend more time on causes such as Darfur, Palestine and other places where freedom is elusive.
If a blogger who cares about the human condition reads this posting and amplifies it, then civiliation isn't a lost cause and my own heart will be filled with joy. Let's acknowledge that the masses will simply go on living their lives until they too become oppressed and choose the right to remain silent. Anyway, here is the link to the four videos: Chapter One, Chapter Two, Chapter Three and Chapter Four...
