Mark Steyn on stability in the Muddle East... |
2002-08-03 |
The point about Bush's June speech is that it can go either way: it can be a blueprint for a Palestinian state, or it can be an explanation as to why a Palestinian state isn't going to happen. Partying in Gaza after killing Americans (five out of the seven dead were American citizens), the locals gave a pretty clear indication of which interpretation they prefer. And why wouldn't they? The Iranians, Saudis, Iraqis and (not all that indirectly) the EU subsidise the death cult. Stability - the stability of the cesspit - is the curse of the Middle East, and it's time to forget Osama's DNA and drain the real swamp.The most obvious difference between stability and stagnation is the smell. And the flies... |

#1 Fred, you are such a linking sweetheart! I told Stacy at Sekimori that I wanted my new site to look more like Rantburg! Indeed, Rantburg is a MUST stop several times daily for me! Don't be a stranger. |
