Ted, In case you haven't noticed, the United States is a bastion of free speech. In Arab countries you would likely be killed for criticizing the government. How many of the Sept. 11 bombers came from Israel? Over the weekend, Muslim terrorists mass-murdered Shiite children in Pakistan, Christian children in Indonesia, Russian children in Russia, and Jewish children in Gaza.

If peace keepers are sent to the West Bank and any are killed, any bets on who does the killing? * * *

A sane voice from the Muslim world. Suicide bombers are going to hell. Maybe there is hope for Islam to regain it's sanity? Few in that hall could have known what was coming: a fatwa issued by one of the country's most prestigious and revered religious leaders, the Grand Ayatollah Montazeri. His message was directed far beyond the boundaries of Iran, to all members of the Shia faith. It was a powerful and politically important message: Suicide terrorism is antithetical to the teachings of Islam, and those who practice it, and kill women, children, and babies, are doomed to eternity in hell. The struggle between the Palestinian people and Israel must be resolved by other means, above all by negotiations. A tumult broke out when the import of the statement became clear, but the parliamentary president permitted the deputy to read the fatwa in its entirety. The proceedings were broadcast live throughout Iran. Therefore, although no Iranian publication and, to my knowledge, no foreign-news service reported the event, the Iranian people were able to hear it in real time. nationalreview.com
