A jewish man from San Francisco sent you the link because he is concerned.......Is he the same jewish man who sent you the url you posted earlier?? You are spreading anti semitism in your own special way by using ficticous jewish friends as the discoverers of hate sites and articles. I know, i know, some of your best friends are jews.

the most interesting paragraphs from Zakaria's piece were the opening ones: IT’S A HARROWING picture of Iraq today. But here’s another snapshot, another father-son story, on page 14 of the same newspaper. This father surrendered his son to the Americans because the boy, a teenager who enjoyed alcohol and gunplay, had shot an antitank weapon at a U.S. armored vehicle. In Iraq right now, there is a story to prove every theory. The American occupation is facing a guerrilla war; it is rebuilding Iraq with impressive speed; it is beset by logistical problems; it has unleashed a new culture of freedom; it has secured most of the country; it confronts a lawless, crime-ridden society. All true. Yet the editors of the Post made the right decision to put the village story on the front page. The greatest challenge that the United States faces in Iraq today is not random teenage gunmen. It is not even the guerrilla insurgency, which remains sporadic and localized—though it is drawing in Islamic militants from other countries. Small bands of thugs will continue to harass American forces and even kill some, but that’s not enough to stop the activities of the occupation authority. The greatest challenge facing the United States is handling Iraqi nationalism. We need fewer villages where cooperating with Americans is seen as a capital offense. msnbc.com
