Is it? Personally, I believe that is a bit of media fiction. Large parts of the middle east are growing and productive nations. Contrast to Africa which doesn't get as much media attention: Did you know that in Congo in the 90s, the greatest genocide on this planet since WWII took place in just three years? 1500 people die in the US, indirectly saves as many from the blood donation programme (where over 10.000 with potentially terminal diseases disocered their illness at an early stage) and changes world politics in one day. Twice as many were killed every day in Congo. The media is where the money is it would seem. ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> $9.95 domain names from Yahoo!.
