    The article Vladimir posted might be interesting from a military point of view, but it really doesn't deal with anything else.

    You missed the point of the article. It provides valuable insights on Arab culture and methodology.


    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.

    Christ said "If you want to remove the mote that is in your nieghbor's eye, you must first remove the beam that is in your own. Then you will clearly understand what must be done..." or words to that effect. This principal is one we never apply when dealing with the Arab/Islamic world. We must somehow become able to see things from their point of view, if we are ever able to reach an understanding.
