Your sentiment is well expressed and many points you make are valid,
interesting and attractive .. so why do you hide behind that silly stylistic
bent of using 2 for to?
and as a point of fact the Irish ('we') have been oppressed for much more
than the past 100 years. And hence the depth of the problem here.

Subject: MD I am not American
Dear all,
Although i have not yet posted 2 this forum, i would like 2 remind us all of
a few thoughts that perhaps are lost amidst all the fear and hatred that
have arisen during the last week.
Re:"God Bless America" - I hope He doesn't.The whole World needs a God-and
the segregation supplied by blind Nationalism is one of the reasons that
we're in the mess we are now. We don't need it.
We have earned the opportunity over the last 2000 years of Bloodshed to use
our intellect. Most people know that there are no true winners of
war/oppression. 100yrs ago, Britain tried 2 opress the Irish and are still
facing ramifications 2day.Violence begets violence.
We are all guilty of our differing perspectives. The people in Palestine did
not celebrate the loss of innocent life, they celebrated for a reason. Surly
it is relevant 2 question the reasons for that instead of hating them as
well?

Regards,
Dylan
