Jacob,

You said it yourself. They are the elite, the creme de la creme and unfortunately have less in common with the vast majority of their fellow nationals than they have with us. Agreed they can be most charming. Royalty always is. No doubt about it, they make much better ambassadors of good will than the terrorists who are so quiet and taciturn until they commit their dastardly deeds.

Few Islamic fundamentalists have the money to send their kids to Harvard and their governments would be most reluctant to sponsor them even if they could afford it.
