Two different situations. The Palestinians have been attacking the Jews for decades. In Iraq the terrorists have also killed Iraqis and groups that are trying to help them, ie. Doctors Without Boarders, Red Cross and the UN.

I love how you blow both hot and cold on the subject of the well, subjected Arabs. On the Palestinians, you say that they're hopelessly addicted to terror, but on the Iraqis, you say that they hate it.

I guess that unlike you I can figure out that different populations are different, even if both are Arabs. Iraqis are less prone to buy into the current Arab "wall of lies" than other Arabs, since that wall of lies included 30 years of Arab support for Saddam as a Great Arab Leader, nevermind how he treated the Iraqis.

It will be interesting to see if the US is able to clean out its abandoned munitions when it runs away from Iraq

I think your predictions on this score will turn out to be just as accurate as your predictions last year of no Iraq war.
