Information on Ribbons of Sympathy for Iraqi Civilians

at Shippensburg University

 

As fellow human beings we have a responsibility to offer care and concern for the Iraqi people. It is our plea that you will do all in your power to assist the Iraqi with humanitarian aid, care and concern. It is our moral obligation to consider each Iraqi life as sacred and valuable. We cannot, out of patriotic hubris, think and pray only for our American friends and neighbors involved in this war. We must think and pray for the Iraqi people with the same concern and sympathy that we would for members of our own families. As human beings we are one family. The Iraqis are just as much our neighbors as any American who is fighting in this war; we have a duty to do as Jesus admonished us, to love our neighbors (all of our neighbors) as we love ourselves!
