We need more ads like this sending the message to the Iraqi people that we deplore what happened at Abu Grahib.

US Christian Ad stands by Iraqis
A Christian organisation in the US has prepared an advertisement for Arab TV condemning the abuse of Iraqi prisoners at Abu Ghraib jail.
dlw:We should have more of these and we should also show the arab/muslim world the power of democracy.
I was thinking that Christian groups in the US could form an alliance with Muslim groups to: 1. put restrictions/taxes on the advertisement of alcohol. 2. create a progressive tax on the advertisement of movies to reduce Hollywood’s ability to propagandize the entire world with its movies. 3. Ensure that USMuslims have direct say-so on US middle-east policy for the future. 4. find ways to discourage pornography through taxation. 5. Discourage drug-use and encourage teens to practice abstinence.
I think a political alliance that would give USMuslims more sway over the policies of the US gov’t would send the right signal to the muslim world that democracy works and that the US is not the great Satan. Its just a country governed by sinners who often don’t take into account the full consequences of their actions, especially for people in other countries that can’t vote for their reelection.
