#1 They did a piece on this guys book on ABC news last night. He'd already been removed from the anti-terrorism section before he wrote the book, guess he was a little bitter.

#2 I think Diggs at 4 Mile Creek missed the point during his classes. He and his pals are completely right about Islam, but the point of the classes was "to learn how not to insult my arab friends" and the arab friends believe the professors bullshit version of events. Reality is not a requirement for the Arabic worldview.

#3 Air Force sensitivity classes are the stuff of legend. As a young captain in the 70's, I was directed to attend two, the most memorable of which taught sensitivity towards drug users and homosexuals (amongst other oppressed groups). The high point (no pun intended) was when the students (officers and senior NCOs) were directed to sit in a circle around a burning pellet of marijuana so that we would be able to recognize the aroma. The low point came after the mandated indoctrination to homosexualtity and how we, as supervisors, needed to modify the workplace to make it more friendly to such people. It was a touch and go whether or not the senior master sergeants taking the course would die of apoplexy before they lost control and beat the insructor to a pulp. All in all, a serious waste of time and taxpayer money.
