The United States is Minis Tirith Not Mordor
John Ward

I have read the foolish and unfortunate comparisons many of you have made between George W Bush and Saruman and Sauron (some of you alling America Mordor) it is unfortunate that so many people who consider themselves devout fans of Proffessor Tolkien can have missed the deeply patriotic charachter of the man.

Tolkien must be rolling in his grave by the ignorant comparison of America and mordor. America is not mordor, it is Minis Tirith a brave people, "it is through the blood of our people that your lands are protected" peace you would have not known them but for the vigilance of my people. Boromir at the council of Elrond. May Americans lie in graves throughout the world having fought for freedom of other people in the hisory of the world this is not common.

Sauron created the one ring for world domination. He decieved the elves, dwarves and men and used the one ring. His use of the one ring started the war of the last alliance of men and elves. The United States possess weapons of mass destruction and last used them to end the bloodiest war in the histroy of the world. If Bush were Sauron he would have nuked Iraq of existance for its defiance.

Rather it is Saddam who is a young Sauron using deceit to obtain the one ring(weapons of mass destruction) it is Saddam who used theses weapons for conquest and power as did Sauron. It is Saddam who has used these weapons on his own people to eliminate dissent as only Sauron would do.

I suggest that these Bush bashers reread hisory and Tolkien before they spew their ignaorance
