I rarely agree with this view of the U.S., but now I do in the case of the U.S. beginning a third war in the Middle East and the disaster that will follow. However, I do not agree though that Rep. King’s congressional hearings are a ‘witchhunt’ since he is trying to protect us here in the U.S.

Libya: Another quagmire beckons.

In the short space of a decade, the U.S. has made war in three Muslim nations, and Canada in two. For many Muslims, any just cause for these conflicts is beside the point. Shoddy affairs like Rep. Peter King (R-NY)’s congressional witchhunt on Muslims are easily enough overlooked in Karachi and Jakarta. But Western military attacks on sovereign Muslim nations can’t help but appear to many of the world’s estimated 1.2 billion to 1.6 billion Muslims - or about 20% of the world population - as a determined assault on the Muslim world.

” . . . the U.S. beginning a third war in the Middle East . . .”

Your perspective that the U.S. began this war is interesting, indeed.

And I guess when you look up the terrorist attacks, sponsored by these Muslim countries, against the West and Jews throughout the world it amounts to nothing.

We are in a third world war, My Friend. It IS the West vs Islam which is not a religion.
