don't think the "darkness" is "offered" by extremists. The Arab world is not happy with what has happened in Iraq, that is a fact, and there a are a lot of Arabs and they aren't all extremists (and the rest of the world that disagrees with this, they aren't all extremists either). I truly hope the Iraqis may be happy, but the US will have to be very careful now- and quite frankly I don't think anyone who knows anything about the ME can look at this situation, and our foreign relations problems in the past few months, and not have some misgivings as they look down the road. Perceiving problems and "offerring" them are two different things.

You jump the gun if you see rainbows and jelly beans streaming out of the navel of Iraq. If ME problems are to be resolved, we can't all wear our rose colored glasses. We probably need to address real issues, and many of those issues will have to be Arab issues, even if you don't like their issues.
