Subject: RE: BS: The Muslim Cartoons...
Yes, leenia, it is time we stopped tormenting these people and started to give them the help they need. Instead we give them famine and war. Unfortunately, when American tax dollars are thrown at no-bid contracts to help with reconstruction, that money is lost to graft and corruption. Nobody is giving the Muslim people of the Middle East any meaningful help.

You are right. The Muslim world of the Middle East has been victimized for so long, the can only react in anger to insults their faith. It is the one thing that they cling to during this time of crisis. Its time to stop blaming the victims.

I'm sure they would be much happier if the U.S. and its allies would leave the Middle East entirely and let them sort out their own affairs. They have had enough of U.S. 'help'.
