Another way time enters into the discussion is with Hussein's response to the U.N.'s belief that Iraq started the war when it invaded Kuwait. Hussein might respond, 44 That may be, but in the longer sweep of things, you've ignited something that transcends this time," Luidens said.

To Hussein, Luidens said, Iraq has as much claim on Kuwait as any other Arab country since both were established by British and French treaties at the conclusion of World War I. From the 1920s onward the British and French continued to cut deals in London and Paris about which

Arab rulers to install and support in which Arab countries. " F r o m the early 1920s until 1958," Luidens said, 44 Iraqis did all in their power to unload 'foreign' kings in their m i d s t . " Finally the Iraqi military in a 'bloody and vengeful coup," overthrew King Feisel II and drove all westerners out. From then on Iraq had a series of military dictators who 44 turned to Iraqi self-interest and to Moscow for s u p p o r t a n d m i l i t a r y assistance," Luidens explained.

Hussein is the most recent of these military leaders.

Just because Kuwait and Iraq, as well as the other Arab nations, have been cut up and parceled around by the European nations for the last century does not mean that they have no past beyond those nations. Their history goes much further back.

Back beyond the time when the land of Kuwait was under the Persian Gulf, before the rise of the Ottoman Empire. Kuwait was formed from the expanding delta of the Shat ai Arab River, which is formed by the juncture of the Tigris and E u p h r a t e s Rivers.

With this type of history. Hussein and Iraq can wait another century or so to take Kuwait or any other land they feel a right to. Luidens said.

Finally, the other m a j o r way time fits into the Gulf War is the West's desire to "get on with life," Luidens said.

4 'We want things settled, we want them settled finally and we want to get onto the next things," he said. This makes the idea of a sustained war difficult to support in the U.S. especially.

Another i m p o r t a n t point, Luidens made, is that m a n y Iraqis do not like Hussein any more than his enemies do. But he is their leader, and they rally around their leader a n d their country out of nationalism, just as Americans who may not like

George Bush rally around the idea of " A m e r i c a . " Part of the reason Hussein has remained in power, Luiden said, is because he has rallied Iraqis support by being for a resolution to the Palestinian question.

"1 am personally convinced," Luidens said, " T h a t if there were no Palestinian injustices, if they had their own homeland and the U.N. had dealt with Israel. Saddam would not be around."

Luidens referred to the Israeli occupation of the West Bank in 1967 during the Six-Day War. This occupation displaced and relegated the Palestinians who lived there to second class citizens. The U.N. passed a resolution ordering the Israelis to pull out. The Israelis have refused, saying they need the land along the west bank of the Jordan River to ensure their national security.

There are 3 to 4 million Palestinians who have no country.

That Hussein aoes not have totai support is evident from the numerous coup attempts since he took over the presidency tor life m 1979, one of which was in the last five years It is possible. Luidens said, that one of Hussein s motives for invading Kuwait was to keep his generals occupied rather than face another coup attempt from the military. However, at this point, it is just a theory.

Luidens emphasized that the Palestinian question has been linked in the Arab mind and that of the rest of the world for a long time.

"Hussein has linked his injustices (in Kuwait) with the ones Israel is doing to the P a l e s t i n i a n s , " h e said. This linkage appears to be finally made in American minds.

Senator Albert Gore, part of the strong Congressional Israeli contingent, said last Thursday that the Palestinian question See,

Chaplain urges conscientious objectors to express opinions

by Beth Pechta editor in chief Hope Chaplain G e r a r d Van Heest is urging all men and women who believe it is morally wrong to kill to fill out c a r d s and inform their pastors that they do not wish to serve in the military.

Such actions, said Van Heest, could be an important factor should the U.S. Congress pass a law instituting the d r a f t .

T m saying do this early so that you'll have a record of some standing so that it doesn't just appear that 'now that I'm called up, I'm trying to find a way to escape this whole business.' M Persons who do not wish to serve in the military must petition their local d r a f t boards for conscientious objector status.

F o r m s and letters of recommendation, as well as a personal a p p e a r a n c e b e f o r e the d r a f t board, a r e required. " E a c h d r a f t board looks at this and they'll do their own study as to whether they believe you really a r e (a conscientious objector) or whether you're looking for a way to get out of this without going to C a n a d a , " said Van Heest.

The m o r e people who know of a person's objection to war, the better, emphasized Van Heest, who a ppe a r e d with conscientious objectors before d r a f t boards in Albany, New York, during the Vietnam War. "They (the d r a f t board) will check with your church to see how the church feels about it and whether the minister knows you a r c or not.

register with the Central Committee for Conscientious Objectors (CCCO). This requires the mailing of a card to the national office in Philadelphia, Penn., which states, " B e c a u s e of my beliefs about war, I a m opposed to participation in the military ."

CCCO also provides a card which a conscientious objector can mail to any religious or other group with which he or she is af-

from Pg.

He explained that until the Palestinians have a homeland, other leaders, like Hussein, can get a toe-hold in countries using that issue a s a springboard.

T h e r e f o r e , this w a r might be just another battle if people like Hussein can use the Palestinian question as a step toward power.

The linkage that the U.S. refuses to discuss between Iraq's nvasion of Kuwait a n d the Palestinians on the West Bank was graphically shown, Luidens said, by the "almost 400,000 Palestinians" who were "thrown out of w o r k " in the Israeli Occupied Territories (principaly he West Bank and the Gaza Jtrip) following the Palestinian liberation Organization's mistake of supporting the Iraq nvasion.

Luidens went further saying, "How we deal with the Palestinians a f t e r this thing is done will be more important than it is now."

Statistics say, that one in four women will be subjected to sexual assault in their lifetime," said Dr. Patricia Roehling, a psychologist at Hope's counseling center. Roehling directed a support group for survivors of sexual assualt last semester, which consisted of seven people and met for 10 weeks. Now, a new group will be forming for the S o n n g semester.

Roehling said that the group is specifically for "people who have been involved in some form of sexual assault; including stranger rape, date rape, incest, molestation, basically any form of unwanted sexual contact."

"It (sexual assult) changes people's lives f o r e v e r , " Roehling said. There a r e emotions that a person goes through a f t e r ai. assualt that may m a k e them feel alienated and alone, she stated. a* if they were the only ones e v periencing such feelings Bv b^ i n g in a s u p p o r t g r o u ) counselors like Roehling believe students will find that their feelings or emotions a r e commonly shared by others who have gone through a sexual assault themselves. "They can support and assist each other in the healing process," Roehling said.

As a result of last s e m e s t e r ' s group, Roehling believes that lasting friendships were formed and i m p o r t a n t hurdles overcome.

The purpose of the group, Roehling said, is information sharing, support and emotional healing. It is often difficult for friends and families to understand what a loved one is undergoing; sometimes friendships a r e even lost because of the difficulty in communication under such circumstances.

11 students a r e interested in being in the group, they can call Roehling a t x7945 and schedule an appointment to talk to her.

She is also available to provide information and indicated that she would work out a schedule that is convenient for all who a r e interested. The counseling center is located in the Sligh Building on East U t h Street

Faculty panel talks about Gulf War

by Carrie Maples associate editor As Americans watched the war in the Persian Gulf unfold, Hope students and faculty gathered in Winants Auditorium to discuss the situation A panel of eight professors were asked to address the issue in a five minute statement which was followed by a period of questions from the floor Dr Jack Holmes, chairperson of the Political Science Department. was the first to speak. He stressed the importance of acting now to stop Saddam Hussein "to avoid having to take greater action in the f u t u r e . " Holmes also said, "Being a superpower is not an easy job," but without a superpower the world might revert to a " m i g h t makes right" situation. i believe what is justified and what m a k e s sense for war only is justified when American security is t h r e a t e n e d , " said Dr. E a r l Curry, chairperson of the History Department.

He said, " I r a q presents no threat to the United States. I a m opposed to the use of force as a resolution to this problem."

Dr. J a n e Dickie, professor of psychology spoke of the costs of war " E v e r y w a r has a large direct and even larger indirect costs.

The indirect costs a r e enormous."

She said it is

necessary lu r e m e m b e r the human quality of our enemy because technology imper sonalizes the deaths of thousands of Iraqis.

"If I were your age and called to go to the Persian Gulf tonight.

1 would go," began Dr. Wayne Boulton. professor of religion He spoke of the gravity of the decision to kill, "if yon decide to kill, and do. it is probable a moral suicide will take place " Boulton quoted last weeks "Slip of the Mind' saying Iraqis a r e peoole like u s . " r J a m e s Allis, professor of p » losophy, talked about the necessity of war at this point. "If we do not stop him now. it is likely that we will have to fight him in a costlier and bloodier war. with even m o r e death, with even more indirect costs, sometime in the next five y e a r s , " he said.

"If by some quirk of logic I were called up tonight, I would say no," said Dr. Boyd Wilson, professor of religion. He said he was called up in 1968 and again in 1970 but refused to go both times.

"I cannot support my government and I cannot support this w a r , " he said, "Two things a r e sure right now: the United States cannot lose this war, but, the United States cannot win this situation."

for a just war, a Christian war, where violence is only the last resort. " P e a c e deserved a better chance," he said. "I do not think the war is just. I do not think the war will be fought j u s t l y , " said Verhey. He suggested a moral criteria might prevent this war from becoming a c r u s a d e or jihad.

"My greatest concern now that the war has begun is that we have given no consideration to what we will do once it is over,"

said Dr. L a r r y " P e n r o s e , professor of history. He called this the "Nintendo w a r " because of the tremendous technology used in fighting. " T h e issue in the Middle East r e m a i n s today what it has been for forty y e a r s , what to do with the Palestinians," he said.

The issue of economic sanctions was discussed by the panel.

Job market tightens

Recession affects number of job recruiters

by Scott A. Kaukonen news editor With the economy in a recession, Hope seniors a r e anxiously peering around the corner to graduation and the uncertainty of the job m a r k e t that lies beyond The recession, officially pronounced by the White House the first week of J a n u a r y , has forced hundreds of companies to scale back and even drop their plans to hire newly minted grads.

The lack of jobs that will be a v a i l a b l e to f r e s h college graduates is reflected in the drop in recruitment by employer's on Hope's campus. According to Dale Austin, director of Hope s Career Planning and Placement Office, the number of recruiters on Hope's c a m p u s is down by about 10 percent. This is consistent with reports from other colleges across the country.

According to Austin, "Some of the companies will just cancel wholesale. Some that have hired 10 to 15 in the past few years, may cut that in half this year " Most recruiters continue to visit campuses, though more likely they will be found at the more cost-efficient job fairs.

Most recruiters have longstanding relationships with the college and since they a r e not sure which c a m p u s e s will provide the select student they a r e looking for, they will continue to visit campuses.

"In general, it isn't the case that they'll just go through the motions for public relations. It would be inappropriate," said Austin.

"We've had a couple ol Fortune 500 companies...and banks, which a r e typically involved in training programs, cancel their r e c r u i t m e n t , " said Austin "Not only a r e they cancelling their recruitment, they're laying p e a pie off . " "Dating back to 1982-83. the past two y e a r s have seen the most serious drop in hiring q u o t a s for new c o l l e g e g r a d u a t e s , " said Patrick Scheetz, author of "Recruiting Trends 1990-91," Michigan State University's national survey of 549 employers' hiring plans for the year.

In 1982-83. the last time the U.S was officially in a recession, student job opportunities dropped 16.8 p e r c e n t f r o m t h e previous year.

Last year the drop was 13.3 percent, the MSU survey found.

At 11:15 a.m. in the college's K n i c k e r b o c k e r T h e a t r e on Eighth Street, theatrical designer and c r a f t s m a n Brad Williams will t r a c e the history and explore various techniques of the ancient art of puppetry.

Masks, shadows, marionettes, hand and rod puppets will be demonstrated, a s well a s old and new construction and performance techniques.

Williams' puppets have ap-

peared on national cable television, in commercials, in th( M a c y ' s T h a n k s g i v i n g Day P a r a d e and in theatres nation wide. A 1973 Hope graduate, Williams has also designed sets for the Hope S u m m e r Repertory Theatre and the Children's Performance Troupe, and created the elaborate puppets featured in the college's popular Christmas production, " T h e Nutcracker: A Play."

During the lucheon in the Mass Center auditorium, which begins at 12:30 p.m. and costs $6.50 per person, the college's Saxophone Quartet will fight the J a n u a r y blues with jazz. Having performed at the college's Musical Showcase at DeVos Hall, the group is a favorite, and its music encompasses a wide variety of styles and popular composers The four student m e m b e r s a r e senior Elliot Church of T r a v e r s e City, junior F r a n k Magnotta of Grand Rapids, senior Kevin Rosenau of Cadillac and junior Philip Waalkes of Wyoming.

Another highlight of the day will be the m e n ' s varsity basketball game against Kalamazoo College's varsity t e a m in an MIAA league match-up in the Holland Civic Center at 3 p.m.

Halftime will feature a free throw shooting contest for -andomly-chosen children from age eight through 12.

Chemistry professor gets grant for cancer research on catalysts (HOPE) - Dr. Rodney t Boyer, professor of chemistry at Hope College, has received a grant from the A m e r i c a n Cancer Society for his cancer-related research.

The $36,500 "Scholar in CancerResearch G r a n t " will support his s t u d y of n e w l y - d i s c o v e r e d biological c a t a l y s t s called ribozymes. Ribozymes a r e a special form of ribonucleic acid (RNA;, and m a y be of value in treating and preventing various forms of c a n c e r , according to Boyer.

'One of the most important r e a c t i o n s c a t a l y z e d b\ ribozymes is the splicing or c l e a v a g e of o t h e r R N A molecules," he said.

"All viruses e x p r e s s their genetic information by m e a n s of m e s s e n g e r RNA, and s o m e viruses, including some cancercausing viruses, store genetic information in RNA r a t h e r than DNA, " Boyer said. " I n the f u t u r e , r i b o z y m e s m a y be designed that can cleave and thereby inactivate such viruses in a living o r g a n i s m . "

Prior to 1980, it was thought that all reactions occurring in the biological cell were catalyzed by proteins called enzymes. In the early 1980's, Professor Thomas R. Cech at the University of Colorado-Boulder and Professor Sidney Altman of Yale University announced the discovery of catalytic ribozymes. The significance of their discovery was recognized in 1989, when Cech and Altman were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

The American Cancer Society grant will support Boyer while he

"The most modern techniques in molecular biology will be used to s t u d y t h e s t r u c t u r e of ribozymes," Boyer said.

Editorial Draft law should mandate service for objectors

TltRE 5uT FoR ALL W # E 1 ? ^ L ' W (3o o u g

M P

Young men are scared Young women a r e scared, too They 're afraid they'll be called upon to die for their country. They're afraid they'll be forced to kill for their country.

Many a r e investigating the option of declaring themselves conscientious objectors A conscientious objector is someone who m a y or may not be opposed to war. who m a y or m a y not be opposed to the Persian Gulf War. but who is above all opposed to taking a life A conscientious objector is not someone who agrees to serve but not to shoot or c a r r y a weapon.

A conscientious objector is not someone who will defend but not invade.

A conscientious objector is not someone who believes in God A conscientious objector is someone who refuses to kill Period And it stands to reason that the U.S. government would want to exempt true conscientious objectors from military service It is not necessary, however, for conscientious objectors to be excused from serving the people of their country like any other draftee.

Should the Persian Gulf War drag on. the U.S Congress will undoubtedly need to implement a draft law under which those men 'and potentially women) who are registered with the Selective service. Already, reports of personnel shortages exist Within this draft law should be language which exempts true conscientious objectors from serving in any branch of the a r m e d services. Within this draft law should also be the requirement that conscientious objectors excused from military service be assigned to a federal p r o g r a m for a ' tour of d u t y " paralleling that of those draftees into military service Potential federal p r o g r a m s which could benefit from the services of a conscientious objector a r e urban renewal p r o g r a m s , social services organizations, drug intervention and counseling centers, environmental action agencies, literacy p r o g r a m s or other such nonmilitary-related causes Conscientious objectors drafted into these federal p r o g r a m s would of course draw service pay and could be m a d e eligible for treatment at veterans' hospitals, benefits and pensions.

Because conscientious objectors a r e ultimately opposed to the taking of life, such service would not disrupt their beliefs.

Such a requirement would, however, provide a greater sense of parity to a generation which is already showing signs of being torn between patriotism and peace

Letters to the Editor Students explain collection of pop tabs We. Shawn and Jennifer, would like to thank the Hope College Community for their generous response to our project of collecting pop can tabs. Because we have received many letters requesting more information on our project, we thought we would share it with you all through this letter The pop can tabs we collect through two Holland residents then reach a Hope grad who is the choir director at the First Reformed Church in Holland and who also teaches a third grade class in Ravenna.

When we began collecting the tabs, we were under the impression from the information given to us by one of our go-betweens that they were primarily to help fund kidney dialysis. After receiving several letters from skeptical students and faculty m e m b e r s , we decided to contact the teacher directly. We were told that he originally began the project with an educational purpose in mind.

His intent was to h a v e the children collect the t a b s until they reached a total of one million. He said he believes the children (and m a n y adults) don't realize how m a n y one million is.

In order to visualy d e m o n s t r a t e it for them, he began the pop tab

collection project.

Soon a f t e r beginning, he started receiving phone calls suggesting that when they reach their goal of one million, they use the tabs to benefit a charity. One suggestion discussed was that they be sold for s c r a p and that the money be donated for kidney dialysis

The American L e g i o n collects the t a b s , s e l l s t h e m for scrap, then helps purchase machines for h o s p i t a l pediatric units.

Questions arose, however, as to whether or not that w a s still done. Both the teacher and 1 (Jennifer) did some calling, and it was discovered that although this used to be done, it is no longer necessary due to changes in t h e M i c h i g a n M e d i c a i d system.

If someone does not have insurance to cover the cost of t h e d i a l y s i s , M i c h i g a n Medicaid now covers it. Shawn and 1 a r e both very sorry that we

mislead you due to the misintor mation we received The teacher has. however, found another comparable and legitimaU charity to which inn.To tabs. The American Legion vol lects the tabs, sells them for s c r a p , then helps p u r c h a s e machines for hospital pediatric units. He also said that if another legitimate charity were to come up. it would also be considered.

A g a i n , we w o u l d l i k e to apologize for having originally misinformed you. We will be changing our signs and collection envelopes to read " P o p Tabs for a Cause ", and we do encourage you to keep questioning anyone else who does claim to be collecting the tabs for dialysis. Someone could easily sell the tabs for s c r a p and keep the money themselves.

Thank you a g a i n for your sup port in the past. We hope that you will continue to support us in our project and that with your help and our dedication, we can lead the project to a successful end.

Have a good s e m e s t e r and God Bless you all.

Opinion As expected, church was standing room only. It seems that in times of crisis people turn to the church hoping it might give them something to hole Âť Uo Other people t u n . to the church for a different reason They turn to see if any of the clergy or regular church goers can ex plain. "How could God let this happen?" or "If Jesus ( firist really did rise from the dead, then where is He n o w 9 " Let me tell you where He is: Washington D C . : J e s u s is standing with George Bush and his advisors in the Oval Office.

Jesus is there knocking, asking to be let in to help them deal with their decisions, their joys, their sins, and their entire lives.

Whether they open the door to Him or not, He is workng in and through their lives to bring good out of this horrible war. But even as decisions a r e m a d e contrary to His will. He is still there at work Aurora. Ohio: Chris Rodricks comes home from high school

He tries not to think about it He tries not to cry, to not be overwelmed Christ holds him up B a g h d a d . I r a q : As with George Bush. J e s u s s t a n d s beside Saddam Hussein. With his eyes, Hussein is pouring over a strategic m a p of his SCUD missile trucks. But with his ears, he's listening to an advisor explain the destruction of an airfield. Forty-two men a r e dead and 177 a r e wounded. There is a blood shortage. Jesus says, "My blood is here for my people in Iraq too." As in the Oval Office, few a r e listening. God works around them.

KATY STRYKER My father is a retired Army Lieutenant Colonel. He fought in Vietnam.

He was not with my mother when my brother was born. He came home again to see his infant son and went off to fight again.

About a year later he was lucky enough to see his first daughter enter the world. Then once again he left to continue fighting.

Less than a y e a r before I was born, my dad c a m e home again to see his son and daughter for only the second time.

Shortly after I was born. Dad f'nally c a m e h o m e to stay.

By this time my brother was already four y e a r s old. He was an energetic and talkative little kid with a distinct personality.

Imagine how strange it must have been for both father and son that first time they saw each other. My brother, looking up into a face that looked so much like his own, said to my father. "So you're my dad, h u h ? " During those four years my father spent fighting, all three of his children were born. And during those four years my family was torn apart. According to my mother, the only thing worse than having my father away at war was living in a country that didn't recognize or support him.

be afraid because God will guard His people.

Bobby says his prayers, hut he also listens for the explosions that he knows are coming He runs his fingers over his gas mask He knows how to put it on He waits for the air raid signal. Jesus waits with him.

Kuwait City. Kuwait: Steve, a U.S. p i l o t , c h e c k s his instruments as autopilot carries him to his target. There his copilot will drop 4.800 lbs. of explosives on a "military objective."

In this case it is the suspected site of a SCUD missile truck. It sickeas him, but he will do his duty Jesus reaches out to Steve and hugs him saying. "Do not be afraid. I will be with you "' The Kuwait-Saudi Arabia border: Amal, a Iraqi tank commander sits in a bunker behind and beneath his Soviet-made tank. A camouflage net covers the tank and the bunker.

Montgomery, Alabama: Ruth I^ancaster gazes sadly at the television in her nursing home room. This is her fourth war.

The television is playing Gulf news on all three of her stations She wishes she could watch something else. She has had enough coverage of death It depresses her ; soon it will be her turn She turns off the television.

She and Jesus talk Amarah. Iraq: Five-year-old, Ali doesn't talk with Jesus He doesn't even pray to Allah. He stands on his street looking at it as if for the first time. Last night the bombs fell. There isn't much left He wipes the blood from his bleeding nose. He wants to cry, but is too thirsty to make tears They took out his water three days ago His family had had water stored. But both a r e gone A crater remains. It is inside Ali. Jesus weeps Jesus weeps

Alter watching one particularly violent peace demonstration (yes, VIOLENT peace demonstration) on the news, my mother, outraged to the point of tears, sat down and wrote a letter to my father.

She expressed her frustration and a n g e r at t h e s e demonstrators and questioned their right to be so cruel and to say such things about their own country.

My father's reply was not what my mother expected to hear He said that he was glad that those Americans could do what they were doing. He was happy that every voice in America, no matter how strongly it speaks out against the government, is allowed and has the right to be heard.

He told her that he was fighting for these people and their right to speak out against their own country. He said that if they weren"t allowed to demonstrate, then he didn t want to defend our country.

speaking out against my father were the same people who my father was fighting to protect.

The verbal attack he suffered was the reason he fought. He fought so that they might keep the right to speak out against him.

Right now there a r e signs on campus advertising a peace march in Washington, D C. To those who plan to go to this or any other peace demonstration, there is something I'd like you to hear first.

Before you go to exercise your rights and express your views, please make sure you have identified the right enemy.

Recognize that Kuwait and Vietnam are two different situations. Vietnam was never officially declared a war; the war in the Gulf is a war. Also, the current war is being fought more swiftly and more powerfully than Vietnam. The United States is in this war to win as quickly as possible. We all want peace.

Since Vietnam, many people have spoken about the war overseas as well as the war that raged within the States for peace. But I don t believe there really was a war for peace within the U.S. The oeople who were

Ri ..lember that Saddam Hussein is the aggressor in this war He moved in to conquer and ovetake a country for his own selfish ends. Hussein is not a man fighting for the good of the people; he is not fighting to

liberate anyone He is fighting for power.

The UN is fighting to free Kuwait and for those other countries which depend on the oil that it produces The last thing I ever wanted to see was a war. And I still don't like it. I am for peace as much as anyone else But to me, having peace includes having freedom What good is a peaceful country that is suppressed 0 I don't believe there is such a thing There a r e few things worth fighting for, the freedom I enjoy as an American is one of those things.

Saddam Hussein has shown us he will not voluntarily stop; WE must stop him. I equate Hussein with Hitler. Hopefully, we will never know if Hussein would go quite as far as Hitler We must learn from historv Wre are all praying for peace.

But now that there is a war going on. we should show our support for our F R E E country.

So w h i l e y o u a r e demonstrating against the war, while you are pleading with Washington to withdraw, while you are speaking out against your own democratic government. also thank them for letting you do what you a r e doing

Jerusalem students disagree with column, offer new perspectives Dear Editor, We wish to respond to the article "to stay" in the previous Anchor. As four students who have recently returned from the Middle East after a semester of intensive study and analysis, we feel that we have different perspectives to offer that hold some validity.

The author has raised some arguments which we find ques-

tionable. Firstly, there is t. i argument that this war is a ter of principle, and that Iraq's invasion and subsequent occupation of Kuwait are brutal and inconsistant with international standards. While that is certainly true, it must be pointed out that the U.S. itself has violated international t r e a t i e s in recent history, and is not really in a position to justifiably enforce

a r y s ort of "morality. " Also, in Ih * Middle East itself, Turke> and Israel (both U.S. allies) oc cupy Cyprus (partially, since 1974) and Palestine (since 1967) respectively, and have ignored several UN resolutions. It must be recognized that there is no "benign" invasion or occupation, and the world community has done precious little to redress these injustices in decade*. The

argument that the U.S. is trying to set a new precedent is belied by the fact that the U.S. broke off iU d i a l o g u e with the only recognized moderate Palestinian leadership that has compromised time and again for peace.

While I r a q s i n v a s i o n of Kuwait was not justified by any means, it needs to be recognized that there was some provocation -- K u w a i t b r o k e O P E C

a g r e e m e n t s and lowered oil prices and drilled oil in Iraqi territory. It would have been wise to use this as a negotiating counter.

By rejecting an immediate Peace Conference when the opportunity presented itself, the U.S. is encouraging the preservation of the present status quo in the Middle East, thus ignoring

President Bush addresses reasons for war Dear Editor: If armed men invaded a home in this country, killed those in their way. stole what they wanted and then announced the house was now theirs -- no-one would hesitate about what must be done.

And that is why we cannot hesitate about what must be done halfway around the world: in Kuwait There is much in the modern world that is subject to doubts or questions -- washed in shades of gray. But not the brutal aggression of Saddam Hussein against a peaceful, soverign nation and its people. It's black and white The facts a r e clear The choice unambiguous.

The terror Saddam Hussein had i m p o s e d upon K u w a i t v i o l a t e s e v e r y p r i n c i p l e of human decency. Listen to what Amnesty International has documented "Widespread abuses of human rights have been perpetrated by Iraqi forces ... arbitrary arrest and detention without trial of thousands ... widespread torture ... imposition of the death penalty and the extrajudicial execution of hundreds of unarmed civilians, including children '' There's no horror that could make this a more obvious conflict of good verses evil. The man who used chemical w a r f a r e on his own people - once again including children - now oversees public hangings of dissenters.

And daily his troops commit atrocities against Kuwaiti citizens.

This b r u t a l i t y had reverberated throughout the entire world. If we do not follow the dictates of our inner moral compass and stand up for human life, t h e n h i s l a w l e s s n e s s will t h r e a t e n the p e a c e and demoracy of the emerging New World Order we now see: this long dreamed-of vision we've all worked toward for so long.

(1

A year after the joyous dawn of f r e e d o m ' s light in E a s t e r n Europe, a dark evil has descended in another part of the world.

But we have the chance -- and we have the obligation -- to stop ruthless aggression I have been in war. I have known the terror of combat And I tell you this with all my heart: I don't want there to be war ever again. I am determined to do absolutely everthing possible in the search for a peaceful resolution in this crisis - but only if the peace is genuine, if it rests on principle, not appeasement.

But while we search for that answer, in the Gulf young men and women are putting their own lives on hold in order to stand for peace in our would and for the essential value of human life itself. Many a r e younger than my own children. Your age. most of them. Doing tough duty for something they believe in.

Let me tell you about one of the soldiers over there. S.F.C. Terry Hatfield, a young m a n from Georgia. He sent m e a Christmas card And this is what he wrote.

"Mr. President. I just wanted you to know my soldiers and I are ready to do whatever mission you decide. Freedom as we know and enjoy has been taken away from another country and must be restored. Although we are separated from family, friends, loved ones, we will do what must be done ... We stand ready and waiting. God Bless you and the U.S.A." Terry understands the moral obligation that has compelled our extraordinary multi-national coalition to m a k e this stand in the Gulf. To look this international terrrorist straight in the eye and say: no concessions. To proclaim for now and for the future: no compromises. To bear witness by our presence to the fact that aggression will not be rewarded.

Terry waits thousands of miles

from the White House, yet share the s a m e thoughts. We desperately want peace. But we know that to reward aggression would be to end the promise of our New World Order. To reward aggression would be to destroy the United Nation's promise as international peacekeeper. To reward aggression would be to condone the acts of those who would desecrate the promise of human life itself And we will do none of this.

There a r e times in life when we confront values worth fighting for This is one such time.

Each day that passes means another day for Iraq's forces to dig deeper into their stolen land Another day Saddam Hussnr.

can work toward building his nuclear arsenal and perfecting his c h e m i c a l a n d b i o l g i c a l weapons capability. Another day of atrocities for Amnesty International to document. Another day of international outlaws, instead of international law.

I ask you to think about the economic devastation that Saddam Hussein would continue t( wreak on the world's emerginf democracies if he were in control of one-fifth of the world's oil reserves. And to reflect of the terrible threat that a Saddam Hussein a r m e d with weapons of -^ass destruction already poses •« ; 'iman life and to the future of • . n lions. j g e t h e r . as an A m e r i c a

united against these horrors, we can, with our coaltion partners, assure that this aggression is stopped and the principles on which this nation and the rest of the civilized world a r e founded a r e preserved.

And so let us r e m e m b e r and support Terry Hatfield, all our fine servicemen and women, as they stand ready on the frontier of freedom, willing to do their duty and do it well. They deserve our complete and enthusiastic support -- and lasting gratitude.

Sincerely, George Bush President of the United States

the very factors that led to the situation as it stands today. It is • dicrous to suggest that Iraq is attempting to preserve the status quo - they have already changed it drastically (however unappealingly) since August 2, and a r e the people clamouring for an International P e a c e Conference to redress the status quo.

While the U.S. understandably finds it repulsive to give Iraq any credit for raising the Palestinian issue back to the top of the international agenda, the uncomfortable fact remains that it has, and there is no reason why the Palestinians should be denied their rights simply to spite the person who has voiced concern -whether genuine or not.

We feel that the U.S. has grave ly misinterpreted Iraq's willingness to negotiate, an analysis that has been arrived at by both Western and M i d - E a s t e r n

scholars of the present crisis (such notably scholars as Kashid Khalidi, Ron Str •on and An thony Sullivan t c . ) . It is therefore disconcerting to see that U.S. policy m a k e r s have decided that Iraq is not going to negotiate.

R e g a r d i n g the question of economic sactions, they may take y e a r s to work, as in the case of South Africa. Not enough time was spent to see it they would have had an effect, In fact, there were already indications of their efficacy. Iraq's G N P has dropped by 55-60 percent in the last six months. There is a chronic shortage of milk - children a r e being fed rice water instead, and a r e suffering from malnutrition.

It has also been pointed out that even if they had been effective, economic sactions were not necessarily the best way to pursue a peaceful resolution of this co f l u / , and that other m o r e produ. tive d i p l o m a t i c c h a n n e l s we e a v a i l a b l e .

As students recently back from the Middle E a s t , we feel it is important to realize that there a r e people -- mothers and fathers, sons and daughters, brothers and sisters - that live there: the sufferings of whom a r e easily ignored by the use of clinical, s t e r i l e w o r d s like " s u r g i c a l s t r i k e s " , " c a r p e t bombings" and the like. There a r e wounds being created and reopened in that part of the world that will take generations to heal.

Arts Quality Christian rap disc arrives .Jim Monnett -•s editor

.

Christian r a p music is for the most part a poor second class •music to m a n y secular acts like Public E n e m y and Too Short 'But SFC's 1990 disc "A Saved Man (In the J u n g l e ) " may begin to change this reputation. » SFC (Soldiers for Christ) is radical music that will not be 'found on most Christian music .stations because it is professional sounding and written in • the street talk of the m e m b e r s .

The disc is over an hour long and filled with r a p s like ^ P e c u l i a r " about being a born

" T h a n x " in bold print is Thanks to all the radio stations that a r e playing us. This is followed by a p a r a g r a p h that r e a d s .

The very reason many station, won't play SFC besides that it is rap, is because nothing is sugar coated. J e s u s ' n a m e keeps them off secular stations and the clear p r e s e n t a t i o n of A f r i c a n American life in the city offends the Christian stations.

In "My A l a r m - F r e e s t y l e " SFC recounts getting pulled over by the police and arrested for being "suspicious " It's an interesting song that frankly deals with acism. but not in a heavy hand'Narrow minded ed way. J e s u s is sang as the P h a r i s e e s here diiswer in the second half of the song, the " F r e e s t y l e " part which c o m e s the b o m b . ' lias a strong African feeling to it.

--SFC SFC ends their liner notes with.

P a r t of the power of the disc is In " T h e B o m b " SFC contends that it is put together like a radio that the only necessity of Chris'broadcast.

by Dan Combs staff writer

The Flying Duirh basketball t e a m won its fit'h straight g a m e and continued its unbeaten streak at home by pulling off a close victory. 61-59. over an MIAA opponent. Alma The g a m e was played last Saturday at the Dow Center Hope o v e r c a m e a five point deficit at halftime to win this game Lissa Nienhuis ''91) scored the g a m e winning basket with fifteen seconds left to play.

The basket put the Flying Dutch a h e a d 60-59. Alma had a c h a n c e to take the lead back, but Jolene Kanary i 91 • missed a j u m p shot with three seconds left. Kristen Hoeters ('91) then m a d e one out of two f r e e throws to m a k e the final score 61 59.

Coach Sue Wise said of the win, "This is a test for us to be behind This is the first t i m e we've been behind and been able to c o m e back and win this y e a r So I think that was a real confidence booster."

The Flying Dutch had a real s c a r e in the first half when Nienhuis went down grabbing hei leg. She was helped off the court and missed the r e m a i n d e r of the half.

Light dil ferent players scored for the Dutch Neinhuis paced the c h a r g e with 14 points. Michele Sterk • 91) and Robin Schoul 91) each had 10 points.

A c c o r d i n g to Alma Coach Charlie Goffnet his team did well, but g a v e Mope credit. "I think the d i f f e r e n c e today was they had a little bit m o r e poise than we had. Their players didn't hurry anything, they worked the ball well and took good shots in the last seven or eight minutes " The poise truly showed down the stretch. After taking a time out with 8:45 left in the g a m e .

Hope went on a 9-0 run F r o m that time out until the end of the g a m e , the Flying Dutch outscored Alma 16-6.

Hope's defense only allowed two field goals by Alma in the s a m e time span Another thing that showed the Dutch's poise, was their shooting p e r c e n t a g e . After only shooting 39 percent f r o m the field in the first half, Hope m a d e 50 percent of their shots in the second half.

Coach Wise sees other important things that will come f r o m the victory. "In t e r m s ol what other people see. it was con sidered an upset This will r e a l h help us come Monday in our regional rankings " Alma wms ranked n u m b e r 20 in the nation coming into the g a m e .

With the win. Hope improved its overall record to 10-4. :i-u in the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA) Alma dropped to 2-; in the MIAA and 9-3 overall.

The t e a m was successful in both places.

Kristin Caldwell C92), Monica Bullard ('94), Shaney Froysland ('93), Caryn Borchers C92), Grisly V r e d e v e l t ('91), T a m a r a Luehrs ('94), and Jennifer Noorman ('94) took first place in every event they did not swim for 4 exhibition against Olivet.

Vredevelt. who was the captain for the home t e a m said. "We did

what we expected to do. It was just a fun m e e t . " The final score finished closer than expected with the Dutch defeating Olivet 84-72.

"We swam a lot of people exhibition. " said Vredevelt, " a n d this m a d e the score closer. We also wanted it to be m o r e of a competition."

Due to lack of s w i m m e r s , each s w i m m e r had to swim a variety of evnts. "A lot of people h a d to swim what they usually don't, but we also s w a m at least one of our own e v e n t s , " c o m m e n t e d Vredevelt.

The only person who did not get to do what she normally does was Luehrs. Luehrs normally dive^ for the team, but since 'here was n. diving competition cr* she s w a n .

"She had never s w a m before and did very well for never having s w a m b e f o r e . " s a i d Vredevelt about Luehrs.

Vredevelt added, "A couple of people s w a m their p e r s o n a l bests, like Monica (Bullard) in her b r e a s t r o k e and I think J e n n (Noorman) did very well in her f l y . " Bullard s w a m the 100 b r e a s t r o k e exhibition in 1:14.54. while Noorman s w a m the 100 butterfly in 1:08 with little competition from Olivet.
