"Not in Our Names"Relatives of Terror Attack Victims Speak Out"Bombing Afghanistan is just going to create more widows, more homeless, fatherless children." --- Judy Keane, who lost her husband, Richard"We don't win by killing other people." --- Jill Gartenberg, whose husband, Jim, was killed "If you choose to respond to this incomprehensible brutality by perpetuating violence against other innocent human beings, you may not do so in the name of justice for my husband." --- Amber Amundson lost her husband, Craig, in the Pentagon attack "If military action results in the deaths of innocent Afghans then 100 more Bin Ladens will rise from the grave." --- Rupert Eales-White, who lost his brother, Gavin Cushny "Let this passing be the start of a new conversation ... that provides a future for all mankind to live in harmony and respect." --- Deborah Borza, who lost her daughter, Deora Bodley "Our son Greg is among the many missing from the World Trade Center attack. We cannot pay attention to the daily flow of news about this disaster. But we read enough of the news to sense that our government is heading in the direction of violent revenge, with the prospect of sons, daughters, parents, friends in distant lands dying, suffering, and nursing further grievances against us. It is not the way to go. It will not avenge our son's death. Not in our son's name. Our son died a victim of an inhuman ideology. Our actions should not serve the same purpose. Let us grieve. Let us reflect and pray. Let us think about a rational response that brings real peace and justice to our world." --- Phyllis and Orlando Rodriguez |
