GZ, are you saying ALL arab kids have been trained for 35 years to wear bomb belts and blow us up? Your last response to Buddy would lead me to this conclusion, as you indicate the word "arab" (four letters) is the part and parcel of your point. But I see Buddy's point quite clearly. For a thousand years the key differences between the Shiite and Sunni branches of Islam have resulted time and again where those populations come into contact with each other (Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Syria, etc.) in framng their focus on each other...rather than uniting against an outside enemy. As Buddy points out, not all Muslims are Arab...not all arabs are muslim... Is it the ethnic element that you feel is the focus of the current and future threat? or the religion? Or, perhaps looking another way...is it the poverty combined with the dictates of branches of the religion, centered in an ethnic (arab) domicile? Or is it just being Arab?
