CB there you go again, supporting terrorists. You should have been supporting Gorby, not the damn Mujahideen. Gorby was a good guy. The Moslems [as you seem to be figuring out slowly] have beliefs of both a social and mystical nature which should horrify you. Gorby and the USSR system were closely related to the way the USA does business at home and abroad. The USA is heavily state-run, with a great deal of repressive legislation and suffocating restrictions. If you think Moslems will run the show better than Gorby and King George II, take another look at your client and his ilk. It must close to half the adult Moslems who think the destruction of the Twin Towers was no bad thing. Maybe it's only a third. <The sad thing, or maybe it's just ironic, is that he seems to be convinced that everybody was just prejudiced against him because he's a Muslim.> He's probably right. But thinks the word prejudice means 'dislikes' and he thinks 'Muslim' means living in the way he's used to living and doing the things he's used to doing. Using the same words with different meanings always leads to misunderstanding. He should understand that people are very prejudiced against Muslims in the way he understands those words. But most people are not prejudiced against Muslims in the way the words should be used. Mqurice
