Now, would that be the good Qatar that Norquist gets some of his funding from, or,
I've got a question...WHAT THE HELL IS RUMMY AND THE US ARMY DOING SECRETING SADDAM IN A COUNTRY FILLED WITH TERRORISTS BENT ON DESTROYING AMERICA (and who helps fund Norquist's Free Market seminars, God forbid)?
I DEMAND AN INQUIRY! RUMMY AND THE US ARMY MUST BE STOPPED! THEY'RE TERRSYMPS! THEY'RE TRAITORS!
OK, Bob, so based on the moving of Saddam to Qatar, what do you make of the Qatari funding for homicide bombers in Israel?
Good or bad?
You've clumsily oversimplified my position on Qatar, which is available on this thread.
Here, I'll get it for you:
You attempted to make the point at #356 that the Islamic Instutes's ME funds from Qatar were ok, because Qatar is "hardly an enemy of the United States." I pointed out, since you were obviously unaware, that Qatar isn't always our ally, and that not all money from Qatar is therefore excusable.
Or, do you excuse Qatar's subsidies for the families of homicide bombers?
If not, then it's not especially compelling when you suggest that Norquist's Qatari fundraising is kosher, simply because it's "one of the few middle eastern countries pushing Western style free market principles. " #371
I've bolded to avoid further confusion on your part in this matter, but I''ll elaborate for emphasis:
"Qatar isn't always our ally" does not equal "Qatar is never our ally."
I explained to you earlier that Qatar is a mixed bag, like Saudi Arabia. You should intuitively grasp this when holding simultaneously in your thoughts that Qatar is assisting with the detention of Saddam Hussein, yet Qatar also funded homicide bombings.
You do agree that homicide bombings are bad, don't you?
You never answered earlier.
