What I don't care for is the snotty attitude that was exhibited here. There are many "experts" on the Middle East and obviously, there is much disagreement among them.
I really think you should read Allegra's first post. It was not offensive or snotty in any way. If you think differently, I'd be interested to know what you found offensive. And then Sabramerican posted to Allegra. His opening comment was "That's cute". I don't think he meant that literally. It was a jab and intended to provoke a reaction. Which he got. Now who has the snotty attitude? The person who tries to provoke a reaction, or the person who reacts.
We are at war. Americans are dying. Americans are threatened.
We are not at war against Terrorism, no mater the politically correct term. Terrorism doesn't pick up a weapon.
We are at war against People with a certain ideology. The ideology is that they hate us and want to kill us.
From where does the ideology come?
THEY ARE THOUGHT.
As this article proves that are foremost thought by "Our friends the Saudis".
You paying attention, you Apes (Jews) and Swine (Christians)? That's the lesson, among others not as nice- you are Apes and Swine- in the eight grade curriculum in an authoritarian country run with absolute power.
And our President holds hands with the leader of that country. Twice. And that leader tells Barbara Walters that the hand holding is a sign of mutual respect.
Our President respects this bum and his hate? Who doesn't have a problem with the hand holding and the respect shown?
If you Apes and Swine are not bothered by that picture, this Ape is.
On a serious thread about the real enemy and what they teach, pops up an apologist for Islam- and how friendly and playful her Islamic friends are- to dilute the nature of this vital information.
I believe in calling such an attempt "cute", I went above and beyond being civil. And then I asked a simple question, never answered by the way, of whether these nice Moslems ever condemn the hatred that is being thought.
