Sorry British.. I can’t feel sorry
Dear British, 
Today I read news in Independent newspaper on its website. The title was “”First female soldier killed in Afghanistan“. “ As a matter of fact, the British government does not find it hard to deceive its people by saying that the female, like many others, has been killed for “the noblest of causes” and they deserve to be thanked for. Actually, this is what the commander has said: “”Our troops are the best in the world and fighting for the noblest of causes”. So, are they noble causes? “
How can they be noble causes when they are supporting, backing up, and sacrificing the British young men’s blood for what?? for supporting the American Administration rashness, stupidity, lie and falsity decisions? By doing this, the U.S. government keeps in fooling you and sacrificing your young men’s blood. They are using the naïve people in your nation. They claimed that Iraq has weapons of mass destruction and you simply believe them.
In fact, I could not feel pain for this news. Is it because I am a terrorist who is athirst for your blood? “While I am scared from the gecko!!” or is it because I hate you and I wish you disappear one day? No…never. I will tell you why.
I don’t feel pain because no one can count the number of killed females in Palestine, Afghanistan and Iraq, and all of them are not soldiers…they are only citizens. Besides, there are also countless of widows, homeless and many of their children have become orphans. For example, (33thousands Iraqi men are killed since 2003 till 2007) Lancet Magazine.
Many years ago, we have been bleeding because of such statistics, but day after day, it has become so normal to the extent we can feel nothing. Daily, we hear the tragedy of many women in these countries, and they are suffering because of your government approval for the U.S. So, how do you expect our feelings to be? Sadly, our wounds are already dead…we can’t feel pain anymore. Actually, you have killed humans’ feelings, not only in the Muslims’ feelings but in all people around the world. After all, you ask: “why do they hate us?”
People in Afghanistan are still defending their land not thinking about the price, although they have been suffering from war for more than six years. They are completely ready to sacrifice their souls in order to set their land free. In the other hand, Iraq is suffering much more from the U.S. occupation. Yet, the British or the American will not win to make their dreams come true.
In despite of all these things, I know that many educated men of Britain do not believe in such subordination for the U.S. government. To be honest, I hope they increase more and more so they can have an effect in the politics decisions for everyone’s good.
In the same article, the Defense Secretary Des Browne said: “We have now lost nine soldiers in 10 days and every single one of them is a tragedy.”
At the end, I just want to understand one thing only. If losing one person from your troops is considered to be a tragedy, what about losing a whole country, killing and driving away its citizens??? How these people’s reactions are supposed to be???
Sorry once again…I can’t feel any sadness
