primarily by Persians. Iraq by was ruled by fascist secularists and populated mainly by Arabs. (Gee, I guess this is politically incorrect so I want to say
right now that I mean no disrespect to either Arabs or Persians, nor wish to imply that either group prefers the Government type with
which these particular Arabs and Persians were associated). Notice I'm not commenting on any thing else. Only the facts not the suppositions.
Don't bother to respond to this message you've been killfiled.

And one of the most unpopular to the rest of the world, particularly Latin America (remember Honduras and Nicaragua?) and Iraq (where he setup Sadam Hussein with a nice set of weapons to kill his own people), or perhaps Afghanistan (where his policies left Bin Laden and co. setup and nice little training camp after supporting him and the Taleban with weapons and cash to kick out the Russians).
Sure he helped put and end to the cold war, but he also played an important role in sewing the seeds of todays problems.
Toms pics were nice, pro-reagan patriotic pics - particularly the one of the horse.

I thought Tom's photos were excellent, particularly the riderless horse,
which I think is as good an example as any I've seen in the press of that
image.
