Richard from Sudan - A Beam of Light!
Dear America,
Firstly I would like to thank the Blog to America site for inviting me!! I would equally admit that I've never been to America, and not even willing to (unlike me compatriots in Sudan)!!
I'm going to start from the issue of migration!!
I think that USA has become a super power not because God blessed America with talented people more than anywhere else, but because America had managed and still managing to seduce all the scientist of different specialties from all over the globe, mainly from Russia, German and other small countries including my "my underdeveloped" SUDAN!!
I'm not blaming America, of course, and no one should even think of that, but I'm rather blaming those Immigrants who betrayed their countries and went to sell their knowledge and experience in America for the sake of better life standards!!
My LATE MOTHER once told me that a "TOOCOOL" on your home land better than a castle on a foreign land, because there you'll never feel "HOME" and I think all the foreigners in America including my ELDER BROTHER must reconsider their residence in America, and answer these questions!! What have you done for your home land? Are you really feeling home in America? Do you feel/think that you have the same rights as the real Americans do? I understand that your reasons to migrate was political at most, but have you really solved the problem by immigration? I think escape is never a solution for any situation, but they are rather solved by facing and struggling to make a change!!
When it comes to politics, where I'm not having much interest, I can make a humble comments on the American foreign policy!!
I might agree with them upon the Moral issues like the fight for liberation of people from dictators like Saddam Hussein, but I completely disagree with the selectivity!! because there's no justice in that at all, it's fare to judge a criminal for a guilt, but injust to judge some and leave others!! So if America wanna be just, they should deal with the criminals on an equal base!!
Let's take the invasion of IRAQ as an example, the American government underestimated the Iraqi people right from the start!!
They thought that they will get the mission accomplished in three month and come home with what they could carry, but the reality that they found there was a way far from that!!
till now the Pentagon is not showing the real figures of the troops killed in Iraq!!
And everyday a new bomb attract and more Americans die!!
I'm sure they are thinking day and night about how to end this, but I think this's not gonna end soon!! They cannot move out, because Iraq will be a pore for terrorist, and they will after that come to get you!! And if you stay we'll never be able to stop their attacks!! I'm not supporting them, but I'm saying that you did a very big mistake by getting in there at the first place!!
And president Bush as long as his in charge will keep committing more and more American young men to Iraq, and more insurgencies but as a matter of fact he's just giving militants more targets to shoot!!!
I hope that America learns a lesson from Iraq and never repeats the same mistake in Iran!!

Richard,
Your worries are over. America has decided that it does not need any immigrants to stay in the forefront of technology and innovation. Nevermind the fact that a large percentage of our pHD's and Nobel Prize laureates are immigrants, and the fact that we don't have enough Americans to fill the high tech jobs. Instead, we have decided to lower the number of worker Visas we issue and bury Visa applicants with waiting lists and red tape that would impress even the French. The shortage of skilled workers will cause high-tech companies to move offshore. No problem though...we will simply take many of those workers displaced by outsourcing and put them to work building fences and walls along our southern and northern borders. Others can join militias to protect the southern border. The rest of them can join the Army and help invade other oil-rich nations.
