Well no, but I got an offer I could not turn down. Free cous-cous for life if I recruited suicide bombers for Hamas. So I thought I would see if any freepers were interested.

There was a guy on FR "Lejes Rimul" who got banned who struck me as an Islamic fanatic going on about how Ataturk was a traitor he strikes me as a type who might end up as a suicide bomber for Hamas.

Now that might be the closest to the truth you have ever gotten. Arab Prop every single day as if your life depended on it. Camel head on your pillow, Lar?

A desire to follow what is occurring and being said where America has an interest and American troops are stationed, Nix2. Believe it or not, some people on this forum think American interests are even more important than what happens in some hellhole of a town in Israel or the West Bank nobody has heard of nor wants to hear of again.

Then why the continuous posts of women suicide bombers in Palestine, *Zionist Atrocities* none of which have been charged by anyone but the PLO propaganda machine...and YOU, Larry Boy? Any of your JDL ex-friends show up yet?

got there expeditiously thanks to the kind people of Bahrain who allow us land heavy transports such as the C-5s on their modern runways.

......and Bahrain gets nothing out of the deal............or maybe it enjoys a measure of protection from being swallowed up by some nearby, belligerent Muslim nation. Think Kuwait.

I doubt anyone thinks the USA will go to bat for Bahrain for a small naval pier and use of an airbase. They run more of a risk from the Saudis and others for having us there than anything else.

Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates constitute roughly 45% of the world's oil reserves, however.

That's why I said to think "Kuwait"........Kuwait was threatened much in the same way (small, oil rich state easily swallowed up by larger aggressor not having a 'protector')........and they know it.

Muslim countries may distrust the United States, but they are just as wary of each other. Believe it.
