[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] Also consider that during the Cold War, the local mid-eastern powers were far happier to have American fingers in their cultural affairs than those of the Soviets. Now the Soviets are all gone and the only remainig "outsiders" are the U.S. Aside from all the foolishness we've [i]actually[/i] engaged in, there's the old standby of "blame someone besides ourselves for our troubles" that politicians have engaged in forever to maintain power. I've been laughing for weeks over the growing "cartoon scandal"- the US Defense Department yesterday tried their own version by sending a condemning letter to a Washington newspaper for it's cartoon showing a quadruple amputee being told by Rumsfeld that he's not paralized, he's now "battle hardened". The Muslim world needs to grow the fuck up a little with the cartoon thing- it was pointed out last night on a PBS round-table discussion, that while it [i]is[/i] disresepectful, it's no [i]more[/i] so than the countless anti-semetic cartoons that run every day in all the major arab newspapers.
