Sounds like you are being naive or are you wanting others to believe you are naive? I am not naïve, and I don’t wish to be perceived as such. In fact, I am aware of a great responsibility that has been placed on my shoulders. However, it is beyond my power to control. For him it is better to "quit" while the going is still good and to look so very honourable and "sincere" to folks like you!!! <g> Because Al Gore’s personal patriotic desires for the nation just happen to coincide with politics, one should not assume the worst just because you may disagree with his positions. The fact is, Al Gore has served as an elected official for virtually his entire life. The Presidency is the pinnacle office for elected public servants, yet Al Gore DID remove himself from the race perhaps a full year before it may have been necessary, if politics were the sole motivating factor. IMO, Al Gore is a patriot, EOS. By the way, did you know why most of the world's best chess players happen to be Jews? This is no accident! A good friend of mine told me their outstanding ability in chess has to do with the fact that since time immemorial, circumstances have ingrained into Jews the essential habit of thinking many moves ahead of others, to be analytical deep thinkers, to be subtle (even sneaky/sly at times) and to be ever suspicious of the motives of other people. As you yourself have said, Arabs are also a Semitic people as Jews are. And as I have said, Arabs think on multiple levels simultaneously. It’s no wonder that they may find it difficult to “dumb down” to only a single level chess game. IC
