>> Iraqis invented the concept of a hospital and were performing eye surgery during Europe's Dark Ages. Its argued that the first books were in Baghdad. Shit. Here you are talking about ancient history; long before the extremists took over. Of course, the basic problem here is that while you and the others see Arabs as a force for good, there is little history that would suggest it. Meanwhile, you are quick to see anything positive in religions you aren't strangely attracted to. It is really odd behavior. You're down with murdering and mutilating and oppression and dictatorship. But put another name on lesser offenses and it is fine. It reeks of blind, ignorant ideological commitment.
