Reader comment on item: Bush's Middle East Hopes [and His Failures]

Submitted by Shahid Kinnare (United States), Jan 17, 2008 at 15:20

As it has been our President Bush also support Dictators in Middle East country. Can any one name a country in Middle East which US supports and it is not dictatorial regime. Lets look at General Musharraf whom we have given him 10 billion dollars since 9/11. And what he does with our money, he put Chief Justice of Pakistan Supreme Court in a Jail. And then we wonder why people in Middle East hate us.

PS: Israel Palestine confict is not century old. Conflict was created with the creation of State of Israel 1947 rightly or wrongly I do not want to go into it. when you US refused to take Jews refugees from Europe.
