Geez Nadine, that tirade would make someone think you're thoroughly anti-Arab.

You might look into Mel's rehab facility.

Hi Nadine Carroll; Re: "This is the real problem with the Arab world - they are such suckers for demagogues."

Yes, it's good to know that us in the western world are superior to the Arabs in that we are immune to the attraction of demagogues. It would be unimaginable for our type of people to, for example, throw ethnic minorities into concentration camps. We would never do things like, for example, refer to our neighbors as "cockroaches", or prevent subsections of our population from voting, or owning property in certain areas, or getting married. No, we're above all that.

By the way, this little conflict sure has gone on a long time without a victory in sight. You don't suppose that there are people in charge in Israel that are as stupid as President Bush, do you? People who think that military force can control civilian populations?
