Re: See no evil, through a veil
Ms Schmidt, you propose a false dichotomy with biased terminology intended to elevate your moral and intellectual position. 'Free vs oppressive system' is such an example. As I have mentioned elsewhere here on the Fray, true ''freedom'' is beyond human reach- it is a utopic ideal. It would arguably be more accurate to call the matter of wearing ...

The loss of Zimbabwe and South Africa to the Reds . . .
. . . compares favorably with the loss of Afghanistan, Tibet, Hong Kong, and China to the Socialist/Communist ideologues elsewhere. Of course, the Anglo-American world Realpolitik has suffered it's share of losses to Right Wing Ideologue regimes, as well. Look no further than France, Italy, and Iran among others. We could even mention America in ...

This model is unsustainable - Osama's role in this
Whether it's 3-to-1 or 2-to-1, obviously the boys must be marginalized, if not banished from the compound. One wonders how Moslem societies that allow polygamy make this work? Are millions of men left without the possibility of marriage, making them more restless, danagerous and susceptible to radicalization. I ask you, Osama.

Shame On Islam
Americans wonder why moderate Muslims don't publicly condemn Islamofascism, terrorism, and the hijacking of their religion by fanatics who use women as suicide bombers and babies as human shields. A question seldom asked is why Americans aren't publicly condemning these atrocities. The barbarism exhibited by the fanatical faction of Islam is ...

Applebaum's Myopia
Last I checked some months ago, Ms Applebaum is adjunct fellow at the AEI, the chief Neo Conservative supra-corporate backed think tank which has engineered much of pres Bush's policy both domestic and some foreign. Immediately, Ms Applebaum's slant has to be approached cautiously. Then, the only 'expert' on Turkey she references is Zeyno ...

Turks - New Applicants to NATO - Fear Women's Head Scarves?
Speaking plain American English, I would say that any Western, Modern Government that can be brought down by women wearing head scarves, quite honestly deserves it's fate. This goes for Turkey, for Germany, and for France, too. How far does this anti-Moslem, anti-Arabia, anti-Religion and anti-Tradition Modernist Feminist conceit of our dopey, ...

A double standard on Turkish Head Scarves
Ms. Applebaum suggests a double standard about head scarves. Why of course head scarves suggest something about the political & social beliefs of the wearers. I imagine a nun's habit suggests a certain stance on abortion & sex ed after all! The problem with Turkey & France is that they lack a 1st Amendment. The 1st Amendment prevents ...

What is freedom of speech? Poll..
http://hyphenatedamericans.blogspot.com/ For a few years now were were learning that freedom of speech is not the same as freedom to insult other people's most dearly held beliefs. This maxim is very oftenly used today when discussing anti-Islamic views. Do you agree with this? Are anti-islamic movies tantamount to shouting ''fire'' in the ...
