Good. They should not be mixed together any longer. All foreign aid to ANY nation who does not support us 100% should be CANCELED immediately...
Okay. On the good side, colleges over there are filling heads full of mush, too.
How can we make efforts to get out side of the story across more successful? If we could make some of these nice folks realize there's another side, that might help us a great deal.

Want to know how to get killed by a U.S.-supplied Israeli jet? Send a suicide bomber into a disco in Israel and kill ~100 kids. Blow up a bus and kill 50+, etc. You get the idea.
Egypt, Syria say back global fight against terror
SHARM EL-SHEIKH, Egypt, Sept 18 (Reuters) - Egypt and Syria will work together with the global community to fight terrorism in the wake of last week's devastating attacks in the United States, Egypt's official news agency MENA said on Tuesday.
It said Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and Syrian President Bashar al-Assad had met in the Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh to discuss the situation in the Middle East following the attacks that killed more than 5,000 people.
"...The two leaders affirmed they would cooperate with the world community to confront terrorism in all its forms through a mechanism which is comprehensive and legitimate to ensure seriousness and decisiveness in order to eradicate terrorism as a global phenomenon," MENA said, quoting Information Minister Safwat el-Sherif.
Assad met Mubarak after a trip to Yemen and Saudi Arabia.
The talks came several hours after the Egyptian leader met with Jordan's King Abdullah in Sharm el-Sheikh. Mubarak is also due to meet Palestinian President Yasser Arafat, a regular visitor in Egypt, on Wednesday morning.
Egypt and Jordan are the only two Arab states which have peace treaties with Israel. Egypt, Jordan, Syria and the Palestinians have condemned the attacks in the United States.
The United States has been actively building an international coalition to back its threatened retaliation against the perpetrators of the attacks and those who protect them. Washington has named Saudi-born militant Osama bin Laden, who lives in Afghanistan, as the prime suspect.
Egypt, a key regional ally of the United States, has urged Washington to be careful in apportioning blame, and has said it was cooperating with a U.S. investigation into the attacks.
Mubarak, who also urged the United States not to jump to conclusions, has said his country would support "very tough action" in response to the bloodshed.

Or an argument I had on the telephone with an adult friend in Berkeley.
Yes it is. But the PC contingent here on FR is too busy gnashing their teeth over the anti-Arab pogrom that is supposedly taking place on the streets of America. They will be along shorty to lecture us on how the sentiments expressed by these affluent Egyptian students in this ,ahem, "moderate" Arab state, do not accurately reflect the thinking of the average Arab. They will then conclude their sermonette on the virtues of love, peace and tolerance with a diatribe against our support of Israel.
