As usual, his editorial is well thought out and well researched - always thought provoking. Let me interject one important idea here - we don't want Democratic elections in the Arab world. Noam Chomsky spells out exactly why. The dictators follow the script we give them. But the people of the Arab world OVERWHELMINGLY disagree with us. They see us as a bigger threat to them than Iran. They think Israel is the most destabilizing force in the region, a close second to us. If they suddenly have ACTUAL Democracy, we're going to lose control. And we don't want that.

The dishonesty of politicians is ludicrous. As long as they get their pockets filled they don't give a rat's arse about anyone else.
