		<description><![CDATA[I alleged no plot.  I said it was &quot;serendipitous.&quot;  Maybe you should look up the word. I had to do so many years ago.

I wrote nonesens? At least 7 people agree with the gist or majority of my post.

Things are looking bleak.  Look at the map of Yemen at wiki

Is Afghanistan, Somalia, Libya any better?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Bought it and read it in its entirety yesterday. Phyllis does engage in some unfortunate intellectual gymnastics, particularly her copious use of the qualifier &#039;Islamists&#039;. But by and large, the book is a powerful repudiation of the blame-America mentality. 


On page 211, she strikes an absolute 10 in terms of moral clarity:


&quot;One cannot reason with evil; one must defeat it.&quot;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Marriage requires a large amount of due diligence. Basic. Love is not all you need. In my senior high school year we had an Arab AFS exchange student. Some of the white girls were all over him, acted like his harem. We white boys were disgusted with them and wrote them off our short lists. Have seen a number of young white women chase after Arabs. At Cal I used to see white girls throw themselves at anything black with a stick. They&#039;d do anything to apologize for being white and upper middle class. One last comment: Early in the Afghan war we bombed a Taliban bomb factory to rubble. Found in the ruins by Rangers was a US high school chemistry textbook. It was from my high school and stamped with my grad year. I think I knew the rich Arab kid who stole it. Hope he was home when the bomb hit.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I bought &#039;An American Bride in Kabul&#039; this afternoon for my sister&#039;s birthday next week. I&#039;m already half way through it. 


She was 19 years old and naive as hell when she made the biggest mistake of her life. Her time in Afghanistan was literally hell on earth. But the experience has served her well for the rest of her life. During the feminist &quot;awakening&quot; of the late 60s, she was in the thick of it, but unlike her feminist sisters, she had no inclination whatsoever to romanticize the third world...and for that reason, was always an outsider. 


Through the years, she&#039;s become only MORE pointed in her criticism of feminist double-standards and apologia for Islam&#039;s treatment of women.]]></description>
