Myopia must be running rampant among you conservative right wing intolerants. Are you intimating that washing machines, toiletpaper, plumbing, curing diseases, Victoria's Secret, a diet other than the staple rice and oil and goat, would be a better investment in the future of the middle east than solid gold mercedes' and palaces with more rooms than one man could sleep in in a year? Why these oil sheiks work hard putting in an hour or so per month in that salt mine known as oil production. How is it you question the validity of a lifestyle perfected by a people who gladly live in the shackles of poverty; an existence so perfect they would gladly blow themselves up rather than live. You must think going on the internet to find virgins is more virtuous than the suicide route. Gee, you're no more tolerant than the French. Tackleberry,

How is it that we have come to think of this culture as higher and better than ours? I know that revisionist historians would have us believe that Islam actually contributed something positive to the world at one time, like the number "0"........earth-shattering. Maybe that was the fortelling of their future achievements. However, lately I haven't seen any evidence of positive contributions to the world. Instead, we have seen them utilize western technology, with western help to menace the world. I know of no Islamic country, save maybe Turkey, which can invent and manufacture 100+ year old technology like the airplane, despite the abundance of raw materials in their posession. Maybe that's because they can't fly them either, just ask the Israelis. Do you know why the Egyptian Navy has glass bottom boats? So they can see their Air Force. In all of the Islamic countries I have been to, the people, save for a few elite families, live in utter poverty and squalor. And, they are hardly centers for economic or social progress. How is it that this should be considered good? I once heard a saying, "You don't ask a poor man how to get rich." I would think the principle of that saying would carry over to other aspects of life. They should be looking to us, not us to them for inspiration. Now that we are looking to them, and just about every other example of unsuccesfulness, I suppose it doesn't matter. Honestly, the Burkas don't scare me so much. I'm much more concerned with "man-love thursdays". How is it that we, the west, think it is good to honor such an ass backward culture?

Why is it you feel that the islamic/Muslim men can wear dirty nightshirts and yet the women should not be afforded the opportunity to wear rainments guaranteed to capture and retain their womanly vapors? Shame..shame...sheme...Uhm Uhm Uhm. Bill,
