Dear Mr. Altatee,

My name is Mina. I was looking through my Yahoo Groups and I had come across your interesting post about what you're doing. I went to your website to do further reading. I really like what you're doing and I can't believe an organisation would do this--it's just awful!

I encourage you on what you're doing. I want to join your fight. I like helping with good causes. I don't have any real money to contribute, as I'm poor myself, but I will happily help you in any other ways that are possible.

Brightest Blessings,

Mina

Dear One, I just came back in January, from a trip to Amman, I was part of a
Peace delegation, comprise of 4 parents, who like I lost a child in that
stupid war. I CARE! I care about my son, I care about Iraq, the children, I care
about human lives, and I want this madness to stop. I would like to ear you;
in which ways can I help? I have encounter many Iraqi families, in Amman,
and I came back with their message...to the American people. We are finishing
filing for 2 NGO's, I would like you to share your priorities and needs.
InService. Nadia McCaffrey

Dear "Warrior",

I have read your letter, which was forwarded to the Society of Hungarian Philosophers, by an intermediate contact, or perhaps via several intermediate contacts in chain. I am mailing with another refugee camp-inhabitants on African Continent, namely in Dakar. Later on I plan to write you more details about my foresights and forcasts, how can the EU to help you and other refugees to be freed and supported.

With the best regards.

Dear Sam
I have just finished reading your article on "human
buttons".
What can I say but to sincerely apologize to you and
other refugees for just assuming - just accepting
what I am "fed" by our media.
It just didn't occur to me that fundraising and
stripping people of their dignity could go hand in
hand.
With regards

From: almarshburn@...


There is so much to read on your site. The idea of people abusing photos
of refugees and generalizing the suffering of people worldwide cuts my
heart. I pray God guide and guard you as you seek to know and share the
truth. I will probably write more after I have had time to read and pray.

Hi,

Your story is very interesting. I am from Bosnia. Before war in my country I had friends from
Iraq - studenst were studing in Sarajevo - Bosnia (former Yugoslavia).

In the war I was in my country, but many my friends flee to Europe as refugees. After the war my
govermnet give me about 250 EUR (about 350 $) for my military service in war. My friends which
flee to Europe are coming come back in Bosnia with pockets full of money and with BMW, Mercedes,
Audi etc cars ...

In this moment about 80 % of war veterans in my country is sorry becose they stay in country -
becose they did not be refugees ... Sometimes is better to be refugee ...

Best wishies,

Amir

I disagree with you entirely

From: tom@...

Dear Osam Altaff

I have had a look at the UNHCR website and find nothing wrong with it.
They are trying to help. Why are you attacking them when all they are
doing is trying to help? Of course money isn't the only problem faced by
refugees but there are many for whom money will help. Why don't you help
refugees yourself instead of expending all your time and energy on
attacking people who are doing their best to help others? If I was a
refugee needing help I wouldn't mind at all to have my photo used - I know
those people are trying to help and I would be glad to think my photo was
being used to help other refugees all around the world. What on earth are
you on about, I really don't understand your approach and I disagree with
it entirely. You need to go out more.

Re: I disagree with you entirely

"They are trying to help"

Yes, true they are trying, until when they'll stay trying!!! I hope they'll do some thing not only trying.

"Why are you attacking"
I don't attacking them. I'm using my rights as human being to express my opinions. And since I'm refugee for more than 10 years so I have good experience about out problem as refugees, and that what I'm doing now, telling our problems. Using pictures to collect money is big problem and humiliating action in more it's illegal. According to the principles of the democracy, every human being have the right to express freely his opinions and work to correct what he thinks is wrong since all that done with peaceful ways.

"Why don't you help refugees yourself"
I'm helping the refugees now with my campaigns. I pushed the UNHCR to made many changes in Lebanon and also I helped the refugees who was ignored by the Government of America for more than 3 years, the details in my ebooks and my campaigns.

"If I was a refugee needing help I wouldn't mind at all to have my photo used"

do you think they'll ask you if you're refugee? Or do you think the refugees have any rights? My friend if you're a refugee so you'll be lucky if they'll deal with you like they're doing with their pets!

The problem is bigger than these human-buttons, I'll explain more in my next campaigns. I like to publish your message in my blog http://unhcr.blogspot.com/ and I'll hide your email if you like.

Thanks

Hi Sam

Thanks for your reply - I would be happy for my email to go on the blog
without my email address.

It is good to know that you welcome opinions different from your own - that
we can discuss these things and agree to disagree.

I still think you are attacking them, in the sense of criticising them for
what they are doing. I really don't know about the legality of having one's
picture used by an organisation. Morally speaking, I would object to having
my picture used by someone to make money for themselves, i.e. if my picture
helped make a profit for another INDIVIDUAL or PRIVATE COMPANY. If it is a
non-profit thing, I don't think I would object. It doesn't really do me any
harm because no-one knows who I am, and even if they did recognise me it
would not affect my life - there is nothing inherently sacred about my
image. We are only on earth for a tiny little fraction of a second - the
blinking of an eyelid - and life is too short to get worried about whether
one's picture is being used by an international aid agency. I would be
inclined however to worry if it was being used by someone else to make money
for themselves - I would want some of the moeny for myself!.

Tom

Dear Osam Altaee,
this is an email to you directly
If anyone else receives this they will be bound to communicate it to you
or else suffer an isolation. I have read only briefly your circumstances
yet they reflect an uncommon truth on this hyper-info-highway. We are
physical strangers yet I wish to say as follows:

No matter where or how your circumstance I am with you.

The oldest truth is that awareness does not dwell in the body but that the
body dwell in awareness - so that we are all connected, as I am to you
before and after this silicon trapped electron medium ever existed. As
such we are indivisible. At night in particular I am you and you are me.

The air is to the lungs as the mind is to the body.

In this realm all time is now - Out of one many.
Your pain is diffused amongst all. Feel your pain and isolation dissipate
now...

I fight here for justice and truth. All is known.

I am sorry that this is all I can say over this medium. I am you. You are
me. With this stroke I liberate you from all anxiety, all pain, all
suffering and all isolation. From this moment on you are triumphant.
Humanity will work it out with these words and change is around the
corner. We will devastate injustice. I love you. I am you.
Please focus on the breath. Slow and even draw it in. Hold. Slow and even
let it out. Hold. Start again. Stop thinking and observe. Consciousness
prevades all. Then what? you may ask, what of my people and their rights.
So they will find the answer. So it is. So I love you.

Hi Sam,

I read your email. I'm Veronica.

I followed the situation from Iraqi since the beginning of 90's and I
can say that I'm not agreeing with this. In the last time I was thinking
many times how I can help people that are with problems. When I saw the
problems from South Asia I was thinking how I can help this people and
only thing that I made was to donate some money, only a bit... how much
I could.

I was thinking that something bad will happen to me, that I will be
glad if someone can help me.

The situation from Iraqi and in general from Middle East orient is
difficult. Many people lose their houses and they need to live their home
and they became refuges.

Please tell me how I can help you and how I can help them.

Maybe like you said, we can build a better world, if not for us, maybe
for our children.

Greetings,
Veronica

Democracy brings freedom

"I love to discuss these subjects with you, if you are interesting.
Also I love to discuss some philosophy and any things will make me to think"

Dear OSAM ALTAEE;

I was excited when I found your web pages and E-books because you sound like me.
As an American, my circumstances have been very different from yours but we have
come to the same spiritual and philosophical position. The Truth is
what matters most.

I'd love to have a discussion with you over the Internet. At the
moment I am living in
France since my own country has turned to warmaking and I stand for peace.
Justice brings peace. I would suggest that democracy brings freedom,
since that is
the way it has happened in the United States. Democracy is more than
voting, it is
also about speaking out for what is right and giving people the
ability to "vote" on
what is right.

I'm working on a proposition regarding Depleted Uranium weapons. Here's the
rough draft of it. When finished, I will allow people to ENDORSE the
proposition.
Do you know what it is ?

"Depleted uranium's radioactive and toxic residue has been linked to
birth defects, cancers, the Gulf War Syndrome.
Military experts from the United States and the United Kingdom have
acknowledged it is a poisonous, radioactive
substance. When DU weapons explode a fine radioactive dust pollutes
the air, water, soil and food of
the area, endangering the lives and safety of local inhabitants for generations.

Since Depleted Uranium weapons are "indiscriminate" and long-lasting
they are already illegal under
existing treaties. They shall henceforth be known as a "Weapons of
Mass Destruction"
and banned from use. Nations with stockpiles of these weapons shall
destroy them or render
them harmless and be held accountable for their use in recent
conflicts by providing health care
to the people of the affected regions and cleaning up the areas where
the radioactive residue can still be found.

National leaders who employ DU weapons shall hereby be seen as
perpetrators of a "crime against humanity."

Your comments are appreciated.
