Right now... I'm reading: Hatred's Kingdom by Dore Gold... about wahhabbism in Saudi Arabia. I'm also reading The High Cost of Peace by Yossef Bodansky about US foreign policy in the Middle East.

Oh yeah, that's light summer reading. I've already got John Wesley's Scriptural Christianity by Thomas Oden.

My hat is off to you. I find theological books very dry reading...

Once I get those two books read, I'm going to finish The Arab Mind and The Threatening Storm.

Okay, that one's on the list from a couple weeks ago. I also need to get the Hitchhiker book(s)...what's the exact title again?

Heh...on my drive to Kentucky I listened to On the Road. I must be too old 'cause when it finished I was like... "so?" Same way I felt after Atlas Shrugged...."yeah, so?"

Perhaps I am just politically and philosophically challenged?

I'm not listening to Glenn Beck today. He's been getting on my nerves.

I'm listening to the original London cast of Les Miserables. Next is either FOTR soundtrack or Patsy Cline...

No, it's a very thick book. I've read a couple of chapters. It's very enlightening.

I've read 50% of The Arabist (once school starts, my reading time disappears unless I stay up late, late at night)...

That is another enlightening book.

What you learn is that the Arabs are "oriental" in their thinking and not Western at all. They have a different thought process altogether...

Take for instance their habit to exaggerate or create exploits for themselves. For example: Yasser Arafat is an Egyptian. When he first came on the scene, he changed his nationality to Palestinian and said that he was related to the Grand Mufti. These are flat out fabrications... but, they are so intertwined in Palestinian history, that the Palestinians won't even hear the truth.

The lie has become truth... and you standing before them with Arafat's birth certificate won't change anything.

Very interesting indeed!
