I was forwarded this petition, and last time I looked, it only had 7 signatures.

7?!

What?! What's this?! 7? Let's FReep this petition! This should have thousands! Pass this URL around. We have to make sure the good Professor stays in the most productive positions possible!

Could you bump this to the Middle East ping list?

[Anamensis]

Bump. Now at 16.

I figured this guy was spot on target when I first enrolled in one of his Mideast classes at the Naval War College in 1984. Everyone marveled at the clarity this man brought to any discussion, seemingly in any era of history. I can assure you this professor does not maintain the mentality of the usual self-infatuated Ivy leaguer. He gets my vote, and the country would be the better with his counsel.

Excellent appointment. Anyone who attacks it is going to find that his feet are getting entangled in all sorts of nasty political traps.

Anything that gives CAIR fits...has gotta be good!

Up to thirty in an hour. That's great. I have to log off now but will be back tommorrow to bump the thread and pester everybody again! :-D

"I don't talk about the religion itself," he said during an interview in the Philadelphia office of the Middle East Forum, a think tank he founded. "That's because Islam is not the problem. Terrorism is not the problem. It's a terroristic version of Islam that's the problem."

"I'm carving out a position between the two most popular ones, and it's not popular. But it will prevail."---Source.

Indeed, it will prevail over the position taken by fanatics of every flavor.

I signed.

Why do we need a petition when things are going our way?

[Non-Sequitur]

What the hell are we doing with a United States Institute of Peace?
