^^ i just read a book on fascism in europe and as I was reading it I realized that the middle east is so much worse than germany and italy were before WW2. Im really scared about the whole situation and I completely agree this.
^ and I fuckin hate him, the doesnt take away from the fact that these Islamic governments are fascist and for reasons similar to germany and italy but also for reasons alot scarier.

^ also I would have to say that Iran is one of the most "liberal" but thats not saying anything. 11/15/2006 9:56:20 PM |

Common misconception: the Middle East is controlled by "theocracies".
There is a difference b/w Muslim government and Muslim religion. Generally, most separate the two fairly well. This is what I've been told by Dr. Khater, and he's from Lebanon.
And yes, Iran has a healthy democracy and is liberal compared to many other nations. Our problems with them stem more from missteps during the delecate diplomatic dance we've had going on for 27 years now than from outright hatred, although the rhetoric of the current admin. in Iran seems to say otherwise. 11/15/2006 10:09:01 PM |

This doesn't really make the point valid, you know that right?
Antecdotal evidence doesn't hold sway in the Soap Box. But, your point may still be right, try to find us a different source though.11/16/2006 7:21:30 AM |

Hey, maybe it has something to do with the brutal king put in place by the Americans? Or the assassination of a democratically elected leader in the 50's?11/16/2006 11:45:42 AM |

Well, I'm just saying that a guy from Lebanon might be tempted to think Muslim government and Muslim religion might be very well separated, even though countries organized under Islamic law still govern based on very strict principles. 11/16/2006 11:57:28 AM |

sometimes i post images with things inside my head that i only get
what do images of known captured/dead terrorists have to do with 'cnn censorship'?
are you saying that cnn does not cover the stories of these people?
do they whitewash them?
do they ignore them?
do they not propagate the evil that they wish on us?
do they not shave these people? 11/18/2006 1:50:03 AM |

You know, maybe the earlier arguments were an inappropriate time to harp on the fact that hooksaw is 40 years of age...
but now is the perfect time to make fun of him for it.
