Democracy In Egypt

They do in America. For example, the cultural and community center moderate Muslims were trying to re-establish in NYC. Which was greeted by some Americans as the hated "ground zero mosque", and where those moderates were threatened by hate and being offed by some. Sad.

In Egypt the Muslim and the Christian populations get alone well, and respect each other. When Mubarak's policemen were sent in to attack the protesters and newsmen for those 48 hours, the Christians formed rings around the Muslims as they stopped to pray in public, to protect them from attack while they prayed.

Yeah, the Middle East is just like Disney World...as long as you aren't a woman or a minority.

I never said that, nor implied it, nor do I think it. All middle east countries are not the same, but none are like the United States.

You have a younger generation who, amazingly, successfully and peacefully overthrows an entrenched 30-year dictator, it's in the interest of most in the world to try and ensure that nascent cry for democracy doesn't again go the way of Hamas. They are trying the same protests in Iran right now, and thousands are arrested, beaten, killed. Not going as Egypt did. Algeria, Yemen ....

But thinking all people of the middle east are islamic terrorists, or secret islamic terrorists, bent upon taking over the entire world, are the absurd hysterical crazy rantings of a Glenn Beck.

You're quick to correct anyone when they put words in your mouth - don't do it to others. I never said that all Muslims are terrorists. There are moderates who, if they are true to their religion, believe in the propogation of their faith to eventually envelop the world. Big, big difference.

Of all people Jesse Ventura summed it up and I would add it is the ultimate money making machine.

"Organized religion is a sham and a crutch for weak-minded people who need strength in numbers. It tells people to go out and stick their noses in other people's business."

Very well spoken Doreen. Once again Riot denies putting word's into someone's mouth. This is starting to become a daily occurance with yours truly.

You are a complete idiot. Yes, I mean of low IQ. Because when you say "yours truly", you are referring to yourself.

And you saying "I denied putting words in someone's mouth" - before I even posted an answer? You were just outright lying. Again.

Why does it smell like tuna fish when you post? I would take you on anyday in an IQ challenge. It wouldn't take much to beat you. If you think I was referring to myself so be it. You just proved what a bigger moron you are to me.

Excuse me, I never implied you did. I was responding to Randall, but I didn't imply he did, either.

I said "that thinking ... "

Believe me, if I was addressing it to you, I'd have no qualms saying, "you".
