<Anything starting with AL is of Arabic origin: Alchemy, Algebra, Algorithm, Algorism...>

No wonder Al Gore didn't get elected. He was obviously an Islamic Jihadist in disguise, but his name was the giveaway. You are right, I am culturally ignorant. I thought it was something else.

<The west stands on the giant shoulders of the Arabs>

You are a bit short-sighted though El M [I guess El is a derivative of Al], because we all stand on the broader shoulders of Lucy, the first mother, who was African, who invented humans, which was an even better invention than algebra. Arabia was just a conduit to new pastures. It's funny how people want to claim credit for what a long-ago partly-related ancestor did. But they don't want claim credit for their barbarity. Funny that.

Maybe if Arabs got their own lives organized and civilized instead of ranting about glories gone by, they'd do better. But they shouldn't copy NZ - we are heading in the wrong direction, with increasing murder and crime.
