We the Sikhs living in C.S R.A. held a special prayer for our troops safety and victory in the war against Saddam Hussein. The prayer services were held in the Sikh temple congregation at 2252 Nellie Dr. in South August on Jan 27. The Sikh religious scriptures preach non-violence. However taking up arms is justified if all peaceful means have failed. Our president left no stone unturned to make this tyrant dictator see reason. The use of force was only authorized after the peaceful efforts of the international community were exhausted. We wholeheartedly support our president.
The Sikh temple preacher Bhai Jit Singh prayed for safety and victory of our troops and for the victory of freedom fighters in Punjab.
