What's the big deal? Every time we have an "uprising" in Los Angeles or Cinn., I read editorials explaing how this is natural and to be expected of an oppressed people.
It wasn't the US doing the looting, it was the citizens of Iraq, the oppressed people who were just cutting loose a bit.
Right?

It's nice what Pipes says and all, but one of the main points of this exercise was to win hearts and minds, right? Yet, here we have a bunch of academics placing the blame on the U.S., joined by IRNA and other Islamic outlets. So, if we want to win hearts and minds, giving the "other side" something on which to hang their hats - even if they're doing so falsely - is generally not a good idea, no?

This never would have happened if Clinton was still President. He and Hill would have had General Wesley Clark take everything out of the museum, and put it in safe storage in a trailer park storage locker in Little Rock, for the Iraqi children.

Never, ever fool yourself into thinking Iraq is capable of real democracy. Tribalism and the false religion of Islam are not fertile ground for freedom and egalitarian citizenship. Sorry, but Japan and Germany after 1945 cannot be compared to the crude state of social development of the Arabs.

<>Said Arjomand of the State University of New York (Stony Brook)<< These people are NOT scholars--they are rabble-rousing, anti-American zealots, hell bent on destroying American scholarship and converting students to their views. Shame on those universities who hire this trash. risa

You guys were not too upset when Bill and Hillary grabbed anything that wasn't nailed to the floor in the White House as they left!

Isn't Michael Sells a big-time Clintonista? If Clinton was still president, I don't think he'd be so quick to criticize.
