<<<a) The inability of the Arabs to learn suggests that they will never learn that they have been beaten. In fact, this
is the Israeli experience, that the Arabs just keep fighting. Unlike the Germans and Japanese, both very
intelligent races, the Arabs are unteachable, so the examples of how the US led Japan and Germany away from their totalitarian ways does not apply to Iraq. Bush's attempt to remake Iraq is hopeless due to the fundamental inability of the Arab people to learn.>>>
You can have an interesting discussion if the proper discussee responds.
Its not that the Arabs do not have brainpower or neurons.
Much of what we learn or what we do with it comes at an early age. If you arrive late for work, you learn the pay is less and the boss doen't like it. Arabs appear to be taught from a very early age, and though religion, that there is an evil enemy out in the world ready to kill them. And that they should get us first. That would change if they visited other nations, or dealt with foreign businessmen Something that most are too poor to do, and most of their parents have never done. Without experience, then the outside world looks confusing , and without being able to communicate because of differing languages, they retreat to the understandable beliefs of elders
So they achieve a certain mind set or background, saying dont trust foreigners, they are lying. We are right, they are wrong, And learning stops in the political area, in the fundamental beliefs. Technically, language wise, science wise they can and will continue to learn, if pressured (haha) But if I was in living in 120 degree heat,
I would be a bit lazy also, as I grew up in Michigan, where hot is 90.
Having American troops in Iraq is forcing people to learn, a painful process regardless of a satisfactory outcome. They will learn that if you launch an RPG against a tank or soldier, you will die, and the people around you may also, and they going to be pissed, and not like you for that.
To be continued, the market calls
