I suggest you do some parallel reading on Muslim history to have something you could compare with . I have never had problems with acknowledging America's frequent negative role in the world. But still I am far away from drawing the conclusions that Blum and you and your allies do. In this imperfect world of ours there is a much more sinister and diabolical evil than America and the moneyed interests that guide and misguide its policy. This much greater evil is called Islam and woe to this world if this evil should triumph one day and America should fall!
