A smart and consistent thought.

Reader comment on item: One Year Later: Militant Islam

Hmm...

The militant clerics have a free ride. What we hear and what they preach to the sycophants, I deduce, are two different rationalizations.

Middle East Professor emeritus, Bernard Lewis, gives a lot of facts with some comments as a history teacher would, but Pipes deciphers and makes bold calculations that are right on the money.

Furthermore, I think that Iraq funds terrorist organizations and hordes them and that is enough reason to go in and take over. But it may take 2, 3 generations of re-education and policing. It took 50 years to topple the Berlin wall. America needs support from some if not from all.
Submitting....
