The old "why they hate us" nonsense. I suppose as always "we meant well too." This is the old manufacturing of consent, military division. They know very well why they hate us: We make their lives hell, day after day.

This was a trip to read. Like if Jorge Luis Borges were drunk. Little bits of history float around the room, occasionally bumping into rejections of points no one made! Quite a spectacle!

Good stuff, e. So let us hark instead back to the time when Islam was king and western Europeans lived in thatch huts. When the city of Cordova had public lighting in the streets and London was a village. The Islamic Golden Age, when those same Europeans learned science and astronomy and math from Islamic teachers.
