Great article....
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?
In the West people can dream up goals to achieve"
"In the Middle East there are no such freedoms, so the mind is constrained to being creative in cruel and destructive ways."
Well, I dont 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.
wow.
Psychological Roots Of Islamic Rage
Chicks. It's always about chicks.
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 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 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.......
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.
I can assure you that people here (in the middle east) are as creative as their Homo sapiens fellows.
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.
