"you forget thatr Arabs are human beings who--like alll human beings---care first about the basics of daily life and not destroying other countries."

I think someone said the above to you, regardless, it is said by many.

A good reply was something I found a few months back here on FR. It went something like.... The Germans and the Japanese were human beings too, and I'm sure the vast majority were hard working decent folk, that cared first about the basics of daily life, and we still had to kill them by the millions to win WW2.

___WW2 analogies don't apply...no country has invaded us or declared war....this is more difficult than your boneheaded analogy to a totally different type of conflict.

A)nd it is isn't clear that firebombing civilians shortened WW2)

Good to hear from you! Glad to see someone who understands and applies the lessons of history.

Some, like Ward Churchill only use history as a means to demonize America, brainwashing naive students into believing the are descended from a long line of criminals, or else the victims of criminals. It seems that some RINO's may share Ward Churchill's viewpoint?
