Pat Santy points to Victor Davis Hanson's "beautiful post on the crazy Middle East" that summarizes all the hysteria and hype that we have endured over the last four years in what amounts to a synopsis of the ongoing insanity about the war against Islamofascism:
Polls show about 20% of Americans favor the Palestinians in their war against Israel, while about half the US population now expresses an unease with Muslims in general. Meanwhile a large minority of Muslims, according to polls, condones terrorist attacks on civilians, while a vast majority is vehemently anti-American. Their prejudice apparently is chalked up to our omnipresence--like saving Kuwait, feeding Somalia, stopping Muslims dying en masse in the Balkans, ridding Afghanistan of the Soviets, paying astronomical prices for their oil, and giving nearly $100 billion over the years to the Egyptians, Jordanians, and Palestinians.Pat aptly notes that it is probably useless for the U.S. to expect even the tiniest bit of gratitude from a part of the world that is so steeped in paranoia and delusion and so much in denial about its own failures, but Hanson can't help pointing out the obvious.
