The associated press has reported a threat from an Iraqi cleric stating that he will take action against the us forces if they remain in Iraq. I am an American citizen and I remember reading a newspaper that stated that Kuwait had been invaded by it's aggressive neighboring dictator, Sadam Hussein. If I remember correctly the 80% Muslim, Kuwaiti, Was liberated in short order by these same US forces that this cleric now wants to threaten. Here is my reply ,And please remember that I am not a member of the United States Government, Just an average citizen.

Mr Cleric if you are to threaten our troops so far away from home I would have to ask on our Friends we liberated once, The Kuwitai Muslim population will be asked to lend assistince in a peacefull manner of assembly and negotiations for the peaceful interactions of the Iraqis towards their US visitors while they are there. For however long that may be.

If you are to fear religion, Any religion thgen we are not progressing forward with international peace.

I am stealing your thunder- Cleric.

I am Patric Crowley.
