Dose of Reality

As Americans we have been given a dose of reality by Abu Ghraib. When Sept. 11 occurred, we in the US were quick to point out that the majority of the terrorists were from Saudi Arabia. Now the coin has been flipped. Americans are collectively being blamed for what happened in that Iraqi prison. Now, like then, some Americans won’t care — if they are in the US. But if you live abroad and in the Middle East, it does matter.

When I talked to my brother about Sept. 11 shortly after it occurred and tried to explain the anger at the US always supporting Israel, he said “ I don’t care; they should not have done that to us.” Now, that same rationale is being applied to the Americans here and elsewhere in the world associating us with the soldiers who committed the acts in the prison.

Those of us who voted against Bush and his unelected group that instigated a war for the sake of his Zionists advisors have to deal with his
Zionists? he is either a convert or a member of the Leftist Fifth Column.
inept legacy. No American will be able to escape the worldwide stigma. My only hope is that this incompetent president will be defeated in November. But it won’t erase or ease the hate. The damage has been done.

This is not the first letter this asshole has written using America support of Israel to excuse all the evil his muslims friends/brothers are doing.

#6  What I would really like to ask this useful idiot is, how does the slaughter of Sri lankans, Indians and Philipinos fit into his theory of muslim terrorists driven to kill because of America's support for Israel?

#5  I just noticed the "@aramco" part of his email address.

Maybe his yearly merit increase review is coming up and he's trying to curry favor with his Saudi lovers bosses.

#4  Nolen suffers from the Saudi version of Stockholm Syndrome. I knew several Expats who had, in the Israel vs Paleo dispute, found a comfortable position somewhere between reality and the Paleo Passion Play of the Arabs. I know this results from their desire to make "friends" and "fit in" there. Of course, in conversation with them, when I suggested they had gone "native" and were waay off the mark, they became angry and said that it just "proves" the world and the US don't understand. Right.

The majority, even after 15-20 years of the constant attempts to convert them to lunacy, know what's what. Ignore this fool - he's self-deluded and trying to buy favor with his Saudi "managers" and "friends" with this tripe. The Abu Grhaib reference is classic - equating a trivial (in the big scheme of things) event as if it was the big scheme of things. Fool fits well.

If detestation of terrorism is a "stigma" go ahead and nail sign me up.
