Of course I do I see the media propaganda, but as I say, go to any major magazine retailer in the U.S., or a big street corner vendor and you'll find a vast array of written material that is for and against going to war, antiBush and proBush, proIsrael and antiIsrael. Both sides of every story is there for anyone that wants to read it in the U.S. Tell me how many magazine vendors on your average Saudi Arabian street corner, or in Palestinian land, sells magazine that are proIsrael or proBush. Are you suggesting there is an open and free media expression in Arab countries? lol, I have to go there to know, eh. "You have never been to the middle east" So if I go I'll be able to pick up a proU.S. magazine at your average bookstorew in, let's say, Syria or Egypt? "Several countries learned in history that occupation of a land whose people have nationalist aspirations is a dead-end. A bloody one, at that." PA leadership agreed not to use violence and negotiate instead. So now, what was lacking in the negotiations in 2000 that justifies terror tactics? Run that by me again, please. So your saying Israel must act unilaterally because the PA promise is always a hollow one?
