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://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5441</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The ofspring of those that are very young, or very old, lasts not. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49900]]></link><description><![CDATA[The ofspring of those that are very young, or very old, lasts not.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49900</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45867]]></link><description><![CDATA[And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45867</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You don't fight racism with racism, the best way to fight racism is with solidarity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52922]]></link><description><![CDATA[You don't fight racism with racism, the best way to fight racism is with solidarity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52922</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Service without reward is punishment. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49740]]></link><description><![CDATA[Service without reward is punishment.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49740</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Ass and His Shadow A TRAVELER hired an Ass to convey him to a distant place.

Theday being intensely hot, and the sun shining in its strength, theTraveler stopped to rest, and sought shelter from the heat underthe Shadow of the Ass. As this afforded only protection for one,and as the Traveler and the owner of the Ass both claimed it, aviolent dispute arose between them as to which of them had theright to the Shadow. The owner maintained that he had let theAss only, and not his Shadow. The Traveler asserted that he had,with the hire of the Ass, hired his Shadow also. The quarrelproceeded from words to blows, and while the men fought, the Assgalloped off. In quarreling about the shadow we often lose the substance.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1501</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Absences are a good influence in love and keep it bright and delicate. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64870]]></link><description><![CDATA[Absences are a good influence in love and keep it bright and delicate.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64870</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46185]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no help at all.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46185</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Summer looks out from her brazen tower, Through the flashing bars of July. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23562]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Summer looks out from her brazen tower, Through the flashing bars of July.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23562</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This I ever held worse that all certitude,  To know not what the worst ahead might be. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60021]]></link><description><![CDATA[This I ever held worse that all certitude,  To know not what the worst ahead might be.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60021</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don't ask the barber whether you need a haircut. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56844]]></link><description><![CDATA[Don't ask the barber whether you need a haircut.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56844</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The whole thing goes back to the presence of God, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28566]]></link><description><![CDATA[The whole thing goes back to the presence of God,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28566</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We just kind of connected better than the rest.
