>> Paraphrasing reasons for terrorism, as already stated by the Taliban and bin Laden, among countless others, is hardly the same as apologism.

That's a strange argument, Dave. The very fact that he is parroting bin Laden and the Taleban is what leads me believe he is an apologist for them. Don't let your feelings of camaraderie for a fellow msft basher cloud your judgement, Dave. Read his words words carefully:

USA has part in the trouble around Israel and support Saudi-Arabia too much... There are some good reasons why Americans are hated so much at so many places around the world

It seems clear that the Dane was expressing his personal opinion, and that it is the terrorists' party line.

Putting him on <ignore> was an easy decision. He's progressed from being a msft basher, to bashing USA products, to bashing the USA, and I don't read this thread to review simplistically formed cultural diatribes. As well, his rare on-topic posts clearly lack objectivity, making them of no use to those interested in evaluating msft as an investment vehicle. Come to think of it, you have some of that going on yourself.
