Joseph, I disagree with your statement below on several points: a) Miguel's expertise in botany and horticulture does not preclude him from writing knowlegeably on other issues.
b) Not refuting another's argument point by point neither indicates generalizations nor weakness in refutation. It merely indicates one's style. c) Mario Goveia's opinions on West Asia or America are by far not the most analytical in those areas. Personally I think his arguments are not borne out by past or enfolding events. The best that can be said about his opinions is that he is in good company with Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld both of whom quite noted for their self-delusions on American foreign policy. I may mention that I find Miguel's posts as interesting as I find those of many else.
