Sure there is: Turkey. Not sure if you were responding to KentuckyWoman's post, or Derbyshire's. If the latter, you should realize that Derbyshire was speaking of Arabs in particular, not all Muslims. Turks are not Arabs. Neither are Persians or Pakistanis, and Derbyshire didn't mention them either.

The Turks of Asia minor are not Arabs.

John Deryshire has gone from a paleocon to a Moledet fan in 8 months.
Perhaps he can convince Pat Buchanan, Sam Francis, and the other anti-Zionist paleos.

I too have read everything by Steyn and Derbyshire. I'm still waiting for http://www.marksteyn.com to get active. If you go there now it still says "coming soon".

Derbyshire is very good but I believe he has a non writing main job in the financial sector. So his output cannot match Steyn's. When Steyn's site opens up he'll be able to give Andrew Sullivan's blog a run for the money.
I read this one and it was great. >>

Let Jordan and Egypt deal with their problem and Israel can wash her hands of it.Brilliant! Your analysis, coupled with the refreshing article, have inspired me to greatness today. The sun is shining outside, the birds are singing, and it's a wonderful day to be an American Christian. God Bless the USA and God Bless Israel.

But nobody in the Middle East wants them either. They are a useless bunch.
To: Marysecretary
They are a useless bunch. If we can judge, at all, by their country's economies and the scale of violence in each, I would have to COMPLETELY agree. Isn't most every predominantly Moslem country pretty well third-world by any standards??

BUMP

I don't care how many times THIS article gets posted. I'll bump it all the way.

That sort of vicious name-calling is employed almost exclusively by people who have no substantiation for their own positions. Well... actually, no.
It is also used as the clever ploy by the pro-muslim/arab contingent. Machiavellian but effective long term.
The gambit: "yes it is hopeless. Being American first we should withdraw from the area and let them solve their own problems.
Tempting no?
Outnumbering the Israelis 50 to 1, that is the rabid dogs' version of heaven...
To: KentuckyWoman
Assuming that "option 5 - expulsion" should ever take place, let's just make darn certain that they don't come HERE! I was just thinking the SAME exact thought!
To: fporretto
I'm surprised Derbyshire could type this drivel, his Klan gown must have got in the way.
To: babble-on
Ladies and gentlemen, the Pallies are not going to be expelled from the West Bank. Well, burying them underneath it would be just as acceptable to me.

but we can impose it upon them, exactly as we imposed it on Germany and Japan. But to accomplish it we have to unashamedly declare that American-style democracy is just plain superior to secular socialism or Islamic fascism, something that our government as currently constituted cannot or will not do. Never happen. They just don't have the mindset for it. Never will.
