  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

In WWII we warned the Japanese with leaflets before we bombed their cities.

We might consider doing the same in Iran.

an example might be.

Attention People of Iran

The government of the United States is reluctant to impose even greater hardship on you than your leadership already has. They have cheated you out of a comfortable and even prosperous life by spending all the oil money on supporting murdering terrorists.

We have waited for decades for your government to cease their insane and murderous hatred of Israel and their working to be able to attack us with nuclear weapons. Recently your government has gotten missiles and missile technology from other countries and the threat they represent to us has now taken a greater turn. This is why we have been selectively targeting specific actions in a limited way to force them to abandon their decades long attempt to attack us.

Your leaders may be held captive by their own hatred such that no one can can suggest negotiation without fear of being executed themselves. This often happens when gangsters take control of a country. They are so afraid of each other that no one can do anything but keep going in the same direction.

We apologize for any increased hardships our actions may produce. If you know of anyone in the military who might be reasonable, please ask them to consider the people of Iran so that someone might find a way to break the control your government has over the people of Iran.

The people of Iran deserve better than to be kept as slaves to fuel the insane murderous hatred of a few leaders.
