Dear Iqbal, I salute your efforts to create real schools for Pakistani children which can replace the dreadful madrassas. Perhaps we have a point of agreement about them. While I attended parochial (i.e. Catholic) schools as a child, I was provided a real education, as proven by my test scores and advanced placements. So, church schools can be good. But the ones being funded by the Wahabbists seem to be nothing short of dreadful brainwashing barracks. *** I'll look forward to your replies to my myriad questions about your support of the lunatic right wing fringe that has stolen the U.S. government in a coup d'etat. You want to start your schools in Pakistan in order to spread the truth to the children there. For the life of me I cannot understand how you can do so in conjunction with supporting the most devious, prevaricating, dishonest and corrupt administration that the U.S. has ever produced. I think it would give me a terrible migraine headache to try to hold those opposed viewpoints in mind at the same time. All the best, Ray
