The north Africa-sectarian Muslim community HATES Semites.
Keep that in mind before you defend them as I guarantee you are friends with several Jewish Americans.

I read the article and got the gist. I just think Morris is a bit of a hack. But frankly, any 'opinion' writer who does a lousy job presenting 'the other side' is a hack in my opinion.
I always thought of the term Semites as having a broader meaning, but I get your gist. I've been to places like Beirut, Baghdad, Jerusalem, Istanbul and Yerevan and found a pretty wide range of opinions. Admittedly, I've never been to Egypt or the UAE.
I'm not defending anyone. My friends, Jews, Arabs, Martians, whatever can fend for themselves.
Perhaps his post might have landed better in some other part of the forum.
I only responded beause I really don't care for Morris. I'll take Friedman over him any day.
