These were people who were putting up no resistance, many with no weapons, leaving in cars, trucks, carts, and on foot. The American armed forces bombed one endof the main highway from Kuwait City to Basra, sealing it off andthen bombed the other end of the highway, sealing it off. Theypositioned mechanized artillery units on the hill overlooking thearea and then, both from the air and the land, massacred every livingthing on the road. Fighter bombers, helicopter gunships, and armoredbattalions poured merciless firepower on those trapped in the trafficjams, backed up as much as 20 miles. One U.S. pilot reportedlysaid, It was like shooting fish in a barrel. That fateful stretchof road has since been dubbed the Highway of Death.In a report submitted to the Commission of Inquiry for theInternational War Crimes Tribunal, charges are made that those killedwere Palestinian and Kuwaiti civilians trying to escape the siege ofKuwait City and the return of Kuwaiti armed forces. The report claimsthat no attempt was made by U.S. military command to distinguishbetween military personnel and civilians.*****The Guardian newspaper in the UK has written of the 9000Iraqis killed by the RAF bombs in 1920, one of the 6 timesBritish oil interests have violated the people of Iraq in thelast 86 years.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Chocolate, men, coffee - some things are better rich ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8941]]></link><description><![CDATA[Chocolate, men, coffee - some things are better rich]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8941</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The most important benefit of population size and growth is the increase it brings to the stock of useful knowledge. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15737]]></link><description><![CDATA[The most important benefit of population size and growth is the increase it brings to the stock of useful knowledge.

And they are present in such a way that he not only conceives them through ideas, as we have before us those things which our minds remember, but he truly looks upon them and discerns them as things placed before him. And this foreknowledge is extended throughout the universe to every creature. We call predestination God's eternal decree, by which he determined with himself what he willed to become of each man. For all are not created in equal condition; rather, eternal life is foreordained for some, eternal damnation for others. Therefore, as any man has been created to one or the other of these ends, we speak of him as predestined to life or death.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7558</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20294]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20294</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are really very happy to have them come back year after year.
