Dear
A great country with a great history named Iraq was destroyed before and we remained silent about it
So I think it's normal to see the same thing happening over and over again

thanx alot for these facts
What do you mean destroyed before ,do you mean by Saddam or some one else>.The whole Arab world is destroyed by the Arabs themselves .About being silent I rather be silent than to babble.What happened in Lebanon and Iraq is restructuring the countries. By the way Iraqis are destroying and bombing and killing but we have to blame The Eagle .المشاركة الأصلية كتبت بواسطة enigma

Mr.X
لتكن ارواحنا نقية سامية عن كل ما يخدش نقاءنا
نحترم ذاتنا فنحترم الغير ...
نتحدث بهدوء وعمق...
نطلب بأدب...
نشكر بذوق...
نعتذر بصدق...
نترفع عن التفاهات...
وأن أردنا الرحيل .... نرحل بصمت .
