Well Ill concede the point that there becomes a point in any cause or religion where the allegiance shifts from the Country to the cause.
This is one of the dilemmas were up against.
Hope we are smart on solving it.

I do not hate Arabs or Muslims.
I am a bit confused by the tactics of many so called devout Muslims ...but I don't blame all Muslims for the actions of men who are clearly insane.
I have been privy to a few E-mail exchanges between my son and a some of his new found friends in Iraq. That boy gets around.
Iraqis are it seems to me not unlike average Americans in many ways. The few that I know of seem to aspire to the same things that I aspire to. Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, among other things.
The more I read the more I am of the opinion that many Iranians are also similarly spirited, by and large.
The war is about fanaticism. That is, fanatics are controlling the agenda.
I agree that we need to be smart, but also we should not bury our heads in the sand.
This war will determine the fate of many people, among them especially are Muslims.
Be safe.

This is one of the dilemmas were up against. Tell you what Sparky, while you are in Dubai at the Intercontinental Hotel with American subsidized security, perusing the Gulf News while your Arabic masters blow smoke up your @ss; remember that you can not travel freely, speak freely, and worship as you wish. Meanwhile America does not have "foreign tourist restricted zones"; complete with 51% investment requirements. We will leave the light on for you. As a matter of fact, if the American lifestyle is so xenophobic and bigoted; truck your carcass over there permanently. They are good compassionate people that have YOUR best interest at heart.
