Reader comment on item: James Baker's Terrible Iraq Report

Submitted by A. Ramy (United States), Dec 19, 2006 at 21:11

Mr. Baker is what they call in England an Arabist, the type who works behind the will of the elected officials, trying to undermine their policies. He has handled serious accounts for various Saudi causes, and he, like many State Department Arabists, including the 'misguided' President Carter, regularly go to Arabia to collect money for various academic causes, like their libraries or forums. Yesterday, Front Page explained in details how many times Carter took money from various givers and what he had to do to gain the charitable contributions.

Most U.S Ambassadors, undersecretaries, and many of their underlings took jobs in support of the cause of Arabia. In my opinion, they are discredited and their ideas suspect.
