"treatment of them is child's play compared to their
treatment of us
don't you think? Not an excuse of course, but soldiers in war
are sometimes
very angry."

At some level I might agree with you but try to look at the bigger picture
here. Who started this from the first place?? If you read the history of
Iraq and the middle east you will find that Iraq has always been the land
where blood was shed. One of our Kaliphs called Iraq "the land of lies and
betrayal." This maybe be a sterotype but many people here in the middle east
think that Iraqis will stab you from the back when youa re not looking and
they are many more mean things and barbarians. BUT there are reasons for
that.

Nobody deserves to be killed or treated in such ways. Not the Amercians nor
the Iraqis. But there is a cause and an effect. These people want ther
country back and they will do anything.

I was in Kuwait during the whole Iraqi Invasion in 1990-91 and witnessed the
liberation war and watched US soldiers (of course along with the British,
French and rest of the Arabs..etc etc) drive thru my main street and I was
happy to get my country back. We can't thank you enough. BUT you must leave
the land to its people. Trust me I get furious everytime I drive south
towards the Oil wells in kuwait and see dozens of military cars and convoys
transporting gears and stuff back and forth between Kuwait and Iraq. It's
not fun watching military people driving around in your streets all the
time!! Try to imagin that next time you are taking your family for a drive!!

Sadly, I will still read about more American soldiers being killed in Iraq
and more innocent Iraqi civilians being blown away because the US will not
leave Iraqi land. They will never do that. They didnt just go thru all that
to simply leave it after 1 or 2 years. It's all about US presnce in the
world!! It's politics. And I hate politics so much and i'm so sorry I wrote
this email and responded to such topic. This IS a double reed list. Now can
someone tell me why I have a nice vibrato on some notes but not on others??
I been playing for 3 years (on and off). Is that normal?? ;)
