>>Baker gets a post from an anonymous SI member and becomes an instant expert on the middle east! What a MORON!! "Thanks for all that useful information and context. Frequently people write about the Middle East who ARE morons, with no real background for what they spout. Since I had never heard those issues raised before, it made me wonder. Now I know. Thanks again."<< Solon - Is this an example of your famous fairmindedness? The poster did not claim to now be an expert on the Middle East. He said only that the issues that were raised made him wonder. In response, you accuse him of believing him self to be an expert and call him a "MORON!!". Peter, I think your idea that a civil discussion can take place here is far from proved. That is not my idea of civil at all. - Allen
