Read about Seth's current travels in Iraq. He reports different findings than Iraqi "we hate America" stories we've been forcefed 1. Who has "forcefed" what stories, Karen? If you have read Bernard Lewis, you know that he says that the regimes which hate America the most have a population that likes America, and vice-versa. That's because everybody in the Mideast (except Israelis, Bahrainis, Qattaris, and maybe Jordanians) hates their government. It's the attitude of the Iraqi dictator we care about, not the people. 2. You must always take the reports of someone who has a government minder standing by his shoulder with a grain of salt, no matter what he reports.
