Actually, that is and has been your inadequate interpretation of
my position for nearly a year now. I don't seem able to
dissuate you of it or to stop assuming your interpretation is
the truth and a basis for throwing e-stones at me whenever you
feel like it. Your statement is not the least factual. I have
no intent of surrendering to the Moslem world. Just because I
pointed out that there are legit issues much of the Arab world
has with our behavior that give rise to a lot of anger in no way
legitimizes events like 9/11 or gives any basis to the rest of
your insulting interpretation. Until you drop this egregiously
immature behavior I will have a very difficult time taking you
seriously.
