I am having trouble understanding the ingratitude of the Iraqis.....we toured Dachau Concentration/Death Camp in 2000 and I was so moved by the experience. We toured Ann Frank house in Amsterdamn in 1980, that was very moving, also. I can't understand why Iraqis are not at least a little grateful ( I know many of them are) and France and Germany are no longer grateful either. Pretty disturbing. I had thought it was worth our war effort to go liberate those children from Iraqi prisons... but some Iraqis seem to prefer Hussein's tyrany over freedom.

The ingratitude of the Iraqis surpasses that even of the French.
As far as the former is concerned they better get used to it; their nation is now one huge American military base, and we're not going anywhere.

If Tommy Franks requested Bashar Assad's DNA, it was meant to send a clear message that 'you keep screwing with US and it will take a DNA match to identify what we will find of you! BTW, I have been referring to the Arab fascination with blood as 'bloodlust'; Arab's diefy their blood (not surprising with pagans really) and lust after the shed blood of any non-Arab.

At the same time, ingratitude is rampant throughout the Arab and Muslim world, which views any outside assistance whatsoever as an affront to their civilization and abilities. Yes. Yes. Everyone must remember and be gratful the anciaent Arabs gave us a distinct number system. They even offered ZERO to be used as a place holder. Heck, they were so generous and able that they have been giving the world ZERO ever since.

Years ago I recall hearing a middle eastern writer saying he truly felt that the middle east was surrounded by or living inside some metaphysical evil entity, some hate-filled deamon that corrupts the majority of middle-easterners normal human emotions, morality and self-esteem. Only upon leaving the area and depart the vicinity of the deamon do most people wake-up and are brought back to normal. He wasn't speaking metaphorically, he actually believed in the existance of this deamon.
Sometimes I think with all the non-rational thinking and actions over there, he actually may be on to something...
