"Most Western nations mind their own business" Too bad all the US mucking makes up for the difference, and then some. :(
Most Middle Eastern nations mind their own business too - its individuals from them that sometimes don't. When was the last time a Middle Eastern NATION attacked a western one? Bombing an Embassy in their own country? Sure its bad. But is it so much unlike Oklahoma city, or your abortion clinics getting bombed? Or Dunkin Donuts? :) ----- Original Message ----- From: Bob Giramma To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, June 02, 2008 6:22 PM Subject: Re: [Libertarian] Condemn the conservative philosophy of bigotry Most Western nations mind their own business, and yet they have been attacked. The Danish embassy was bombing in Pakistan today, presumably for their interventionist cartoons. http://tinyurl.com/3o5tx7 The oil rich nations of the Middle East exert a lot of pressure on weaker nations. Vote with them in the UN or lose your oil allocation. Middle East governments are funding the spread of mosques and Islamic cultural facilities in the West. Your last two paragraphs are based on long-ago situations that have nothing to do with the cultures and situation today. From: goat!

Maybe they are better, because they were living cosmopolitan, when Western culture was still stealing their mates and living in small villages. Maybe because some cultures are way older and maybe even wiser in some ways then western culture.
