Our occupation of Iraq not only promotes extremism there but in other parts of the middle east.

"Occupation fuels resistance. If you think pointing out that these extremists are also bigots somehow mitigates my assertion, well i don't see it." I agree that occupation gives a forum for recruiting extremists. I don't think 'occupation' is a totally accurate descriptor of our current role. What I also know is that there is already a huge system in place that needs to be confronted. I agree that the extremists are bigots and that you seem to buy into that with your ideas about keeping us away from Arab stuff, making you one of them.
