GOV. PALIN: Nuclear weaponry, of course, would be
the be-all,
end-all of just too many people and too many parts
of our planet.
So those dangerous regimes, again, cannot be
allowed to acquire
nuclear weapons, period.
Our nuclear weaponry here in the U.S. is used as a
deterrent, and
that's a safe, stable way to use nuclear weaponry.
But for those
countries -- North Korea also under Kim Jong Il --
we have got to make
sure that we're putting the economic sanctions on
these countries and
that we have friends and allies supporting us in
this to make sure
that leaders like Kim Jong Il and Ahmadinejad are
not allowed to
acquire, to proliferate or to use those nuclear
weapons. It is that
important.
Can we talk about Afghanistan real quick also,
though?
MS. IFILL: Certainly.
GOV. PALIN: Okay. I'd like to just really quickly
mention there
too, that when you look back and you say that the
Bush
administration's policy on Afghanistan perhaps
would be the same as
McCain -- and that's not accurate. The surge
principles, not the
exact strategy, but the surge principles that have
worked in Iraq need
to be implemented in Afghanistan also. And that
perhaps would be a
difference with the Bush administration.
Now, Barack Obama had said that all we're doing in
Afghanistan is
air raiding villages and killing civilians. And
such a reckless,
reckless comment, an untrue comment, again, hurts
our cause. That's
not what we're doing there. We're fighting
terrorists and we're
securing democracy, and we're building schools for
children there so
that there is opportunity in that country also.

| HUNTED LIKE ANIMALS - Hmong Attacked With Chemical Weapons |
 |
HUNTED LIKE ANIMALS © 2007, made by award
winning filmmaker Rebecca
Sommer.http://www.rebeccasommer.org/
The ethnic Hmong Lao refugees who fled from Laos
to Thailand explain what the military inside of
Laos did to them, while they were running and
hiding, half starved, from the attacks by the
soldiers. Some footage in the 75 minute-long
educational documentary "Hunted Like Animals" was
filmed by the Hmong-in-hiding themselves- in the
mountainous conflict areas of Laos. (Cameras were
smuggled in, and tapes out of the conflict area by
Fact Finding Commission.)
Thousands of Hmong Lao fled from Laos to Thailand
- starting 2004- to escape increasing military
attacks inside of Laos, and settled in Thailand's
Ban Huay Nam Khao Refugee Camp.
Over 1300 DVD of HUNTED LIKE ANIMALS were
disseminated to governments, UN system and NGOs.
Even so diplomats and UN officials has no access
to the people-in-hiding inside of Laos, or to the
refugees in Thailand's refugee camp - HUNTED LIKE
ANIMALS brings the voices of the desperate Hmong
Lao directly to them. The refugees want the world
to know what they have endured, and speak on
behalf of many thousands of Hmong left behind --
who are still trapped inside of remote mountainous
jungle areas, chased, attacked, tortured,
mutilated, killed, starving -- AT THIS VERY MOMENT
!!!!!
