Easy for you to say, dianavan. You bailed out of the US and went to Canada where you can conveniently absolve yourself of all responsibility for the actions of the US government (while pointing fingers at those of us who have remained).

I still live here, and I can see where things are headed. I still have responsibility as a resident, a citizen, and a voter, and I'm not going to sit back and just let things continue in the direction they're headed. I agree that if the Dubai deal is going to assist the Bush people with an invasion of Iran, then it's not a good thing. On on the other hand, the attitudes I have been seeing from far too many people, that Arabs are subhuman and do not deserve the same basic considerations as everyone else, attitudes that I see every day coming from my government as well as the opinion mongers in this country, have got to stop.
