Mr. Baharon,

You chastise me for rude language. However, you cite no examples of the same (and you can't because I didn't use "rude language"-- nor did I use any of the words or phrases you cited ). Let me remind you, Mr. Baharoon, that you referred to yourself (and your Middle Eastern compatriots) as "sons of bitches" -- something I would not call my fellow Americans on any occasion -- never-mind when I was praising them. But rest assured, Mr. Baharon, I wouldn't dream of thwarting your right to speak the truth about yourself and your people - however crude the terms you choose.

Related to, well, discomfort with women (sons of what?!) .. I suspect that what really motivates your reply to me is anxiety over dealing in a format where women speak freely. I regret having to come to this conclusion, but, you see I must since there is absolutely nothing you have me saying that I actually said -- so what else am I to conclude?

As far as Justin is concerned, please do allow him to speak for himself .. however naturally aligned you both may be .. that is only good manners, Mr. Baharon. This is a comment board generously provided by Dr. Pipes; this is not a blood feud.
Submitting....
