They have no dignity, and to get some, Arabs (as a whole) are attacking Americans??? I heard of weirder theories than this, but not many, I must admit.

Again: You are parroting Fox TV. That is no different than uneducated Arabs parroting Al Jazeera.


I have not heard this discussed on Fox TV. Where/when on Fox TV did you hear it discussed?

US has a role in this conflict. It is not a figment of the collective Arab imagination. You have to accept this before you can understand the problem.

Yes, we do. We have helped Israel protect itself from agressors, precisely as we have the Saudis, Kuwait and some other Arab nations.

You still have not answered my question: What is going to happen when, in the first democratic elections, Iraq elects a religious fundamentalist? Do you think US will again "free" Iraq from its democratically elected government?

I don't think the election of a religious fundamentalist is automatically a bad thing -- we are not trying to impose a religion or insist that they give up their religious views. As long as a government is established which provides for free elections and orderly transfers of power, I guess they can elect whomever they wish.
