Violence is as american as cherry pie!--H. Rap Brown, Imam Jamil Alamin
America has a trillion dollar defense budget but can't secure its school children, college students, church WORSHIPERS, politicians, night CLUBBERS, victims of police murder under the color of law. she has hundreds of military bases around the world and is the number one arms merchant of the world, so until she recovers from her addiction to white supremacy domination, violence shall continue in america unabated.--Marvin X

The murder of my child will not make your child safe!--James Baldwin
The United States has made serious mistakes in the conduct of its foreign affairs, which have had unfortunate repercussions long after the decisions were taken. Unqualified support of the Shah of Iran led directly to the Islamic revolution of 1979. Then the United States chose to arm and finance the [Islamic] mujahedin in Afghanistan instead of supporting and encouraging the moderate wing of the government of Afghanistan. That is what led to the Taliban in Afghanistan. But the most catastrophic action of the United States was to sabotage the decision that was painstakingly stitched together by the United Nations regarding the withdrawal of the Soviet Union from Afghanistan. If you look at those matters, you will come to the conclusion that the attitude of the United States of America is a threat to world peace. Because what [America] is saying is that if you are afraid of a veto in the Security Council, you can go outside and take action and violate the sovereignty of other countries. That is the message they are sending to the world. That must be condemned in the strongest terms. And you will notice that France, Germany Russia, China are against this decision. It is clearly a decision that is motivated by George W. Bush's desire to please the arms and oil industries in the United States of America. --Nelson Mandela
