In the West we have freedoms that allow the mind to be creative in positive ways that are absent in the Middle East due to the constraints that Islam puts on society there.

In the West people can dream up goals to achieve and bring a positive uplifting force on country and culture. In the Middle East there are no such freedoms, so the mind is constrained to being creative in cruel and destructive ways.

That however is changing due to the bold vision of President Bush who is a true leader who is leaps and bounds ahead of his ignorant political partisan critics.

As for Muslims in the West, some buy into the culture of destruction emanating from their roots to the Middle East and become Terrorists. It can be said those types are the most ignorant fools on earth, considering they really should be aware and know better yet don't.

The Left Media go a long way in encouraging both Terrorists from the Middle East and "home grown", especially home grown. With the constant never ending sour attacks on President Bush, the Left Media lay the rails for the Terrorists to keep committing atrocities in the hopes that they will finally collapse our morale and will to defend ourselves and keep engaged with the enemy by taking the fight to their faces.

How come insulting ugly or fat people is rude, but insulting small men is ordinary? That group gets insulted by huge swaths of society. The guy was five foot four, so what? As the average American man's height is five foot nine, would a six foot two man be considered an object of ridicule?

Well, I don’t know with which lie on thread I shall start, however the ‘creativity’ issue, which you have raised, is appalling.
I can assure you that people here (in the middle east) are as creative as their Homo sapiens fellows. The bunch of clowns assigned by the US administration to rule this region, are the only source of tyranny and constraint in the Middle East.

I'm 6'2", and I pity the fool that wants to ridicule me, or my nephew, who's 6'4" and weighs 320!

We hope that Americans, both male and female, especially those who believe their politically correct and pro-jihadic views will protect them from jihadic violence, will now begin to wrestle with the tragedy in Seattle.

We can hope, but until this PC crap is abandoned, many more innocent people are going to die at the hands of the muzzys...

We hope they do not blame Israel for what Haq did.

They already blame Israel for the war that Hizbullah started....

Very interesting article, Lorianne. Thanks for posting. It presents some very interesting theories regarding terroristic behavior. I have also noticed this sort of love-hate relationship young Islamic males and female family members and friends.

I was not aware of the role of the "Jewess" in the poisoning of Mohamed. (If he acted, as reported in the story, he deserved it.) If this is, in fact, the only reason for the Islamic enmity for all of Jewry, it, again, demonstrates the psychopathy of their culture.

Very interesting read. Thanks for posting this. Liberals were saying, before the latest plane plot, that all we needed to do was 'educate' Muslims. The root causes of their rage, Libs think, is poverty and illiteracy. If we bribe them enough, fix their nations, they'll leave the rest of the world alone. Larry King's show last night, a reporter who had an interview with bin Laden some years ago said bin Laden was mad at the US because of our foreign policy toward Israel and tyrannical regimes already in place in the Middle East...which he implied were there because the US liked it that way. The reporter and King think Islamic rage is fueled by real or imagined slights and injustices. 'Imagined' doesn't matter since they think they're real. They didn't go anywhere near Islam as a murderous cult. They're still in la la land where if we bend over far enough, Muslims will like us.

Howie Carr, who has a show on WRKO in Boston, said rich Vermonters, (Liberals transplanted from somewhere else, usually NY), never worked a day in their lives, have no idea of the real world. All they want to do is bash Bush. They don't get it that when Muslims take over, their heads will be sawed off. They think they're immune. (This describes the Liberal elite no matter where they live.)

Mayor Ed Koch was on on Fox yesterday. Used to be mayor of NY, a democrat. He said, thank God Bush is president. Vehemently. That Bush was the best friend Israel had ever had. Said he knows Lieberman will win in Nov., and those dems who campaigned against him will regret it, and that he was going right up to Ct. to help Lieberman.

Very simple...Islam has left the majority of its adherents mired in a medieval mindset with corresponding ammenities...while the rest of the world has steadily advanced. Either that anger will be directed at its leadership, or needs be directed outward toward the rest of the world.

Same expalantion as most nutcases who think the world needs to change to accomodate them, rather than they themselves change.......

>>
In 1968, Sirhan Sirhan, a Palestinian, murdered Senator Robert Kennedy because Kennedy’s pro-Israel stand enraged him.
<<

According to the Wikipedia entry on Sirhan, he really cannot elaborate a coherent reason why he fixated on killing Kennedy:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sirhan_Sirhan

>>
Sirhan supposedly believed himself deliberately betrayed by Kennedy's support for Israel in the June 1967 Six-Day War, which had begun exactly one year before the assassination. However the "RFK must die" diary entries started before Kennedy's support of Israel became public knowledge. After his arrest, these journals and diaries were discovered. Most of the entries were incoherent and repetitive, obsessing over a desire to kill Kennedy, among other things. When confronted with these, Sirhan couldn't deny writing them but rather expressed bafflement.[citation needed] In the 1990s, Sirhan proposed the theory that he had been brainwashed, which some conspiracy theorists attribute to the CIA's MKULTRA program.

"I can assure you that people here (in the middle east) are as creative as their Homo sapiens fellows. The bunch of clowns assigned by the US administration to rule this region, are the only source of tyranny and constraint in the Middle East."

Really? So the fact that the only places in the middle east where muslims can vote are Israel and Iraq and the rest of the "governments are dictatorships or monarchies is somehow a boon to creativity? Why haven't the supposedly creative homo sapiens of the middle east found it within themselves to revolt and make their own future with their own freedoms? Is it because islam or "submission" has taught them to simply do what they are told?

Some creativity.

Years ago, just after the 9/11 attacks, I read a very interesting analysis of "Muslim rage" (that is, the constant undercurrent of anger in those societies) that related it to the cult's peculiar attitude towards women and to the practice of polygamy.

Women are regarded as lower than dirt, mere chattel - yet they are sexually so powerful that the mere glimpse of an arm or any exposed skin can drive a Muslim man mad, hence they must be covered up. At the same time, there are many Muslim men who will never have their "own" woman, since, because men and women occur at about the same proportions in society, the practice of polygamy gives some better-off, older men several wives and leaves younger or lower status men with no access to women. While the famous Islamic 20-minute marriage (basically a form for accomodating prostitution) may take care of this to a degree, it still means that some men have very little possibility of marrying and having children.

Finally, the practice of older men using young boys for sex creates an enormous pool of resentment. Children who have been sexually abused frequently have problems with anger, and a whole society that permits young boys to be used this way - by more powerful, older male family members or strangers - results in a vast backlog of anger among young men. At the same time, their sexual abuse by older males in positions of authority (common at the madrassas, for example) makes them completely dominated by these men and unable to develop into mature men themselves.

In short, there is nothing good about the Islamic cult. It is unnatural and psychologically deforming, and it is not surprising that, in addition to the violence constantly urged in its scriptures, it creates violence and rage through its family and social structures as well.

It is true that the Middle East gave us the foundations of Law, Algebra, and Civilization, and great works of Art and Architecture.

But creativity can also be channeled into obtaining cesium 137, finding defects in airline security, and making organophosphate nerve gases, and suicide vests.

The people who are giving us trouble now are very creative.
