Turning Pages — Iraq War Over

August 31, 2010 by deadendrap Leave a Comment

Today, or tonight I should say, marks the end of the Iraq War.  It’s been a long battle with over 4,400 dead and many more wounded during the course of this war.  Tonight, it all ends.  Obama is set to leave 50,000 troops in Iraq but as of 5 PM today, he is turning over the country to the Iraqis.

It should be mentioned, however, that war as a whole is not over. Only the Iraq War. There is still Afghanistan.

Even as he turns control of the war over to the Iraqis — and tries to cap one of the most divisive chapters in recent American history — Obama is escalating the conflict in Afghanistan. He said that winding down Iraq would allow the United States “to apply the resources necessary to go on offense” in Afghanistan, now the nation’s longest war since Vietnam.

At the end of the day, a war that has left a country so divided is now declared over. Welcome back troops.

Lupe On Mosque Controversy

August 30, 2010 by deadendrap Leave a Comment

Lupe weighs in on the Mosque controversy that has been looming for the last few weeks.  He takes this time to spread some shine on the Muslim community with Rolling Stone and also sheds his opinion on whether building the Mosque is a good idea or not.

As a devout Muslim, how do you feel about the Ground Zero mosque controversy?
I’m taking President Obama’s stance. Everyone has the right to worship where they please, but you do have to question the wisdom of it when you look at the reaction that it caused. I’m Muslim, so I understand the importance of practicing the faith. But  that is something that is sensitive to Americans. I don’t trust polls, but there was such an overwhelming sentiment that maybe it’s not the best of idea. I think the people who are building it should take that under consideration. Would they be setting themselves up for vandals? Because now it’s become a target. But on the other side, I think it’s  a great opportunity because Islam is in the forefront. This mosque situation is a good chance to spread what Islam is really about. People can give commentary on how much of a peaceful religion it is. I look at the situation as a win-win. Just by you talking to me about the controversy, I get to spread the fact that Islam is a wonderful religion. The majority of Muslims are not even in the Middle East. the majority of Muslims are in South East Asia. The point of Islam is to promote peace. But there are a lot of emotions in New York. I’ve visited Ground Zero so I understand that it’s a sensitive subject.
