Those extremists should go to some open land and fight each other. Why do they keep dragging us into their stupid wars?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33388193.post-19690537425350565242007-04-06T09:52:00.000-07:002007-04-06T09:52:00.000-07:00Thanks for sending this blog to me.

We, in the U.S. who are thinking, deplore the policies of this narrow President who knows nothing of history or other cultures and makes decisions based on his own biases and ignorance!<BR/>P.W.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33388193.post-76338587593754860362007-04-06T00:57:00.000-07:002007-04-06T00:57:00.000-07:00I just thought of one objection I have to your oth...I just thought of one objection I have to your otherwise excellent comentary on Pelosi's visit to the Middle East. It is the use of the term "neocons". The people who are running this country are not conservative, of the old or new variety: they are right-wing extremists, fasicsts devoted to overthrowing everything the Founding Fathers stood for. The Military Commissions Act is a case in point (you knew I'd bring that up didn't you?). Note that Nancy Pelosi is a co-sponsor of HR 1415, which would overturn the most objectionable aspects of that law. I hope that all her admirers will try to get their other representatives to support that bill and S. 576, both called the "Restoring the Constitution Acts".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33388193.post-60546449486226736442007-04-06T00:44:00.000-07:002007-04-06T00:44:00.000-07:00Great commentary, Hussam.

Now we know what "San Francisco values" really means-- toleration for all races and faiths. I am not Muslim, but when I was living in the City, there were many Muslims in my neighborhood, and they were treated just like any other members of the community. Some were retail shop owners and I never felt any fear or sense of "difference" toward them. The ethnic and religious variety one finds in the San Francisco Bay area-- and perhaps in your LA as well (I don't know only because I've never lived there) should be a model to the country. Most so-called "experts" on Islamic extremism have probably never met a Muslim in their entire life!<BR/>Cheri Montagu, San Jose, California.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
