"Arabs don’t hate America. They object to America’s one-sided, unjust, illegal foreign policies, especially with regard to Israel."

"If government entities can get away with censoring material delivered as part of a private contract by means of privately owned equipment, then what's to stop them from censoring books, videos, newspapers, magazines, and even the internet? The First Amendment, you might say?

Nothing could stop the government, as the flood gates would be opened to just about any kind of censorship they wanted."

"Probably an eventual resumption of civil war that will require a U.N. force to control. And this will place the troops (probably some French ones) that would not enter the Iraq quagmire into a slightly geographically removed one."

Their people now realize that had these governments refused to play along, turning Arab against Arab, and Muslim against Muslim for the sake of false Zionist promises, like Hashemite Jordanian control of Palestine and Iraq, things might be different."

"If the West is sincerely interested in positive change and ijtihad amongst Muslim societies and not divorcing Muslims from Islam, then America needs to open doors to these voices within the Muslim community and give a platform where Muslims are seen, understood and engaged in the public square as valuable human beings opening a door for empathy and compassion toward each other and allowing
each to feel valued."
