Islam and the Middle East conflict!
There are two subjects which, without hesitation and without exaggeration, can be compared to man's crap of which nobody dared to get rid of! all those who dared, they have only managed to stir it and make it that its smell, which everyone is familiar, could be spread in order that all the flies of the world –that dote such events- would be ...

Re: Horse and Stable Door
jazzguitarman: So why do you feel Iran and their agenda is something the USA needs to solve? Israel isn't the 51st state, and until they end apartheid I see no reason for the USA to support them. That’s the wisest thought ever..

The blatant image of Islamophobia!
No feelings for the Iranian Mullahs and no respect for the outlaw in the ME! Why are you all mad at Iran? Is that because of the fact that it's an Islamic regime that claims the right to possess a few nuclear plants for peaceful use, or is it for what it represents, i.e. a threat to Israel that has already been in possession of its own nuclear ...

Always the same old song!
“US (westerners) are good and civilized THEM (Arabs and/or Moslems) are bad and backward” Who really decides for Israel, Israel itself or the U.S.? Why not try, even once, to be a little firm and frank with Israel? Stop taking the logic of the ostrich for the single good example when it comes to atrocities of the Jewish state; this logic has ...

Re: Azar Nafisi must have been a whore;...
ed68:Maybe a little empathy is called for here? Iran is like the young, struggling actress trying to get ahead by sleeping with the very powerful though, at the same time, very ugly producer. Once she strikes out on her own, she can start here own production company and sleep with whomever she pleases.... ...otherwise, she would not say such ...

It's a déjà vu!
The United States, together with NATO, will probably suffer the same fate as the Soviets in Afghanistan. By the time the US will have done with the Iraqi quagmire, I fear that this would be too late for Americans to remember George Bernard Shaw when he said: ” If history repeats itself, and the unexpected always happens, how incapable must ...

What does Hitch mean by “We”?
Does he mean the US or the Westerners? If he meant the United States, then Hitch should be taken as a stakeholder in the Bush team, and there he must bear with them, the intolerable failure. But if he meant the “other” allies, I think he was, is and will always be mistaken; because, and except for some bloodthirsty leaders, the rest has, alas, ...
