Encouraging news.

Lasting reform has to come from within the country especially when we're dealing with nationalist governments.

Non arab leaders like Ataturk were able to surmount a successful Secular fairly democratic government in Turkey without foreign intervention.

In Arab governments this process will not occur overnight and some countries will "reform" far more than others, also some countries have been reforming such as Jordan, Morocco, and Tuninsia.

I think as we succeed in Iraq, and we will, this will encourage the people of other countries, like Iran to throw down their shackles.

I think if it weren't for the fiasco created by the media and Democrats about Iraq, we would be taking more aggressive steps to help the Iranian people get rid of the terrorist supporting Mullah's.

When the Mullahs of Iran are driven from their positions of power, that will be the Domino that starts the downfall of Radical Islam. The world is getting tired of seeing innocent people getting killed in the name of these radicals. At some point, rational thinking religious leaders in the ME will be forced to stand up to the Jihadist in order to save themselves from total destruction.

I would love to see the results of a Nexus Lexus search on deadly attacks on innocent civilians..... I would bet a large sum of money that over 98% of the deaths of the innocent in the world today, come from radical Islam. At some point, the world will say, "That's it, it's time to kill them all"
