In the early 1980s the Reagan administration chose to support Iraq over Iran in their bloody war. Neither country was exactly an ally, but the White House considered Iran the worse of the two nations, and cold war politics (along with a U.S. desire to maintain control of oil supplies in the Middle East) put us on the side of Iraq. Three republican adminstrations contribution to the mess we enjoy today in the ME...2 Reagan and 1 Bush senior and the uneven meddling continues. Only democrats can claim to have moved the yardstick of peace in the ME. But neither side is clean. As long as American policy is not even handed in Palestine, the masses will see it as the enemy and no American effort will produce lasting results. Al Al
