Tresy, terrorism as in Nagasake?  Hiroshima?  Vietnam? Chile (you remember
Allende don't you?)? Nicaragua?  El Salvador?  Guatamala?  Grenada?  embargo of
medical supplies to all Cubans?  causing extensive civilian fatalities in
Iraq by destroying infrastructure and preventing funds to purchase medicine
and milk for children? Support of Sukarno and Suharto of Indonesia (and their
invasion and civilian murders of the East Timorese among others?)and on and om
and on.  I'd explain it to you but I am afraid that your brain might explode.

By the way, I am glad to know that you have documention that the American
government is telling the truth about what was happening in Sudan.  Seems that
the total documentation is an alleged soil sample that has never been
independently verified by anybody except the U.S. hawks (who, incidentally
were strong supporters of Saddam Hussein's atrocities until it no longer
served their purposes -- and also of Assad and Noriega and Suharto and the
Duvaliers, etc. etc. etc.

As  a 60's kid I sure have never known the US government to lie (about the
Tonkin Gulf, about Vietnam or Cambodia or Laos, about Chile or elsewhere in
Latin America (and wasn't Pinochet a sweetheart with civilians, by the way).
I think that I am about to hurl.
