Hi lorne; That is a great editorial (on Arab responsibility for the crap that went on in Iraq under Saddam). Everyone should read it. Of course it doesn't change my mind that we shouldn't have gotten involved in Iraq. As it was, we went in with zero support from the Arab world. Not a single Arab soldier went over the border with us, not a damn one. Even today, those Arabs are shedding only crocodile tears. If they really gave an f about their fellow Arabs, they'd be contacting the US government and offering peacekeepers to replace our troops in the Iraq occupation. (Or offering troops to keep the Palestinians from terrorizing Israel.) Of course if they did that, they'd end up with their own troops getting shot at by the locals, but the shooting would be less than our soldiers will take. Instead, they're going to let us bleed in the sands of Iraq cause they see that as contributing towards their side of the 2000 year old pissing match with the Israelis. -- Carl
