http://www.pbs.org/newshour/updates/military/jan-june98/fatwa_1998.html
He should also ask himself whether he’d go for more than a decade without denying responsibility for the suicide attacks of 9/11/01, the 2 suicide bombings of US embassies in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam in 1998, and the suicide bombing of the USS Cole in Aden Harbor in 2000 if he were wanted dead or alive by the strongest military in the world for those and other atrocities and hadn’t played a key role in committing them.

]]> Comment on Mercy Killers: The Drama of Real Life Health Care In The U.S. by Laura Ehramjian http://wisdomvoices.com/mercy-killers-the-drama-of-real-life-health-care-in-the-u-s/#comment-10029 Laura Ehramjian Sat, 13 Oct 2012 20:57:57 +0000 http://wisdomvoices.com/?p=1523#comment-10029 I think this is a very good thing that you are doing and I hope it catches the interest of a lot of people who presently know little about Single Payor-Health Care Reform. I do wish that this play had a matinee performance, however. Due to my poor night vision, I don’t drive to distant and unfamiliar areas after dark, which means I am unable to attend this worthwhile production. I also know that there are many older citizens who share this problem with me. Is there any chance that a daytime performance will be added?
