A great list of questions I'd like to see asked of every Arab talking head before they say one word on any of the talking head shows. The author is currently a visiting professor at the Naval Academy. I'm not actually sure if the article appeared in National Review. His stuff has appeared there before. I got it as an e-mail.

I don't know how I missed getting it in my email (I seem to get all of these things), but I seem to have. Thank you for posting it. I've asked some of these questions myself.

Brilliant!!! Great post, and thank you.
The hypocracy out there is breathtaking.

If the Eiffel Tower had been wrecked by an al Qaeda hijacked airliner, would the French have gone into Afghanistan after the terrorists? And if so, how and why? And would they have asked our help? And would we have given it?
oh i have to get my two cents in on this one.
AMERICA WOULD HAVE WENT AFTER THEM FOR THE USELESS FRENCH I BET ........................I JUST BET.............THEY HAVE A ARMY THE FRENCH?

Why do so many from the Middle East come here to find freedom, security, and safety and then criticize the country that they would never leave as they praise the country that they would never return to? Why indeed?

"
Why do not Iran, Lebanon, Syria, and Iraq, who overtly and stealthily war along side the Palestinians, simply all join with the former to gang up and declare war openly on Israel and then settle the issue on the battlefield? ?
This, and many of the following questions are 'right-on'.
This one, though, has a very simple answer: The 'open war' he's recommending; the arab states know clearly that they would lose immediately. It is precisely for that reason that first Arafat bargained for all he could under Clinton, and then when he'd gotten as much as was feasable (giving NOTHING in return), he returned to the steath war 'intefada' or if you prefer: 'suicide bombers' to advance a few more yards.
He's playing for real. We in the West just haven't figured out his play book yet.

- If nearly two-thirds of the Arabic world believe that Arabs were not involved in September 11, why should any American believe anything that two out of three people from that region say? So many slam-dunk questions on this list, it's hard to know where to start. Won't be hearing answers to any of them from the pali shills on this forum, I suspect.

Thank you for the post. Excellent group of questions, which go to the hypocricy of much of the taking head nonsense on TV about the "Middle East crisis." The same hypocricy will be on viralent display on 20 April, when we hold the Rally for America to contrast and oppose the assorted anti-American rallies being held there at the same time. As requested by Kristinn for the D.C. Chapter of FreeRepublic, I will give the opening remarks at our rally, and I will focus in on the hypocricy of the anti-American left who use the freedoms available in this country, to attack it on behalf of nations who offer no such freedoms and would shoot them as soon as look at them, if they protested in those nations.
God, I love hyppocrisy in the morning. Check the second link, below.
