Really, one has to wonder about liberal indignation!! How dare that liberals impose their negative attitudes on other people. I wonder where they get the impression that they have a right to be intolerant of other peole's intolerance. I had a friend of mine pose an interesting question the other day. He asked how our oil had gotten under the Iraqi sand. He was disturbed that we could not provide security to the people of Iraq or increase the production of oil. Obviously, he is attempting to draw me into some theological debate as to whether we have the right to be in Iraq. Whatever!! The nice thing about SI is you can put all the liberals on ignore. You I haven't the time to debate all the libs about the merits of our presence in Iraq, which the terrorists have used as an excuse to kill thousands of innocent Shiites. The current cycle of violence was inspired by insurgents that had no right to interfere with the new government. They kill the local cops and try to coerce everyone from avoiding contact with Westerners. Now, they are doing irreversible damage to their economy. Saudi oil exports have ceased to become the main source of crude oil in this country. Once OPEC loses crude oil exports, they cease to have any economic way of generating revenues. Will the Bin Ladens and other leaders wish they had tried to put an end to terrorism against the countries importing all of their crude? I'm glad to see the Pope start talking some sense into the Muslims about intolerance. They need a good lesson in manners and good etiquette.

Peter, that's obviously spam. A cock and bull story made up by somebody to denigrate Iraqis living in the USA and wearing burquas. The person is obviously a lying, dishonest crook, trying to deceive, so they are obviously not worth anything. If their argument is so weak that they need to construct lies to hold it together, you should ignore them and report the item as spam. Not only are they not worth anything, they have negative value. It's only honest false arguments which have positive value because at least the person is trying to arrive at the truth. That person is just a criminal pretending to be a patriot. A common failing of humans seeking power, wealth, girls and status. You have no doubt heard the expression, patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel. Not everyone wrapped in the flag is a patriot. Did the person who put that in your in-tray happen to attach their name, address and telephone number? I thought not. Mqurice
