Re: Huh?
Pat,
You said:
Who would benefit from these endless wars in a region that holds nothing vital to America-save oil…Who would benefit from a 'war of civilizations' with Islam? Who other than these neoconservatives and Ariel Sharon? Indeed, Sharon was everywhere the echo of his American auxiliary…."You've also wondered if American Jews can be trusted, because of their loyalty to Israel.
Weren't they asking the same thing about American Catholics like you, not fifty years ago?
Have your people call my people.

Pat jumped-the-shark MANY years ago. Whether its his sloppy analysis or his outright hatred of everything Bush...he's more interested in pushing an isolationist agenda than being honest.
Pat is nothing more than Elennor Clift with male equipment. At least...I think he has male equipment...
Posted by: Dave at July 25, 2006 09:20 AMWho benefits from violence? Obviously, the people who started the violence thought they would. You don't see the Israeli's digging tunnels to kidnap Arabs.
Hearing Hezbollah complain about Israel's "disproportionate response" is like listening to one child complain that her brother hit her BACK.
Mm, hmmm, that's nice dear, run along now.

Very sophisticated analysis, French dude! Maybe you should be president.
Um, actually... Hey, you want to be president? Not like you could be any worse.
Posted by: angryclown at July 25, 2006 10:15 AMAC - are you saying that Israel has no business responding to the violation of their legal borders? Are you saying that they should not respond to the daily bombings that they have suffered over the last 30 years?
Posted by: The Lady Logician at July 25, 2006 10:35 AMReading is hard, huh, Log Lady? I'm saying that Nathan's analysis of a complex situation is remarkably puerile, even for this blog.
Posted by: angryclown at July 25, 2006 10:44 AMBitchyclown's memory must really be failing. We DID have the chance to vote for the French candidate...his name was John (The "F" is for Frech) Kerry. But now...back to Bitchyclown's defense of terrorism:
Posted by: Dave at July 25, 2006 10:47 AMNo, what he is saying is since rational people will come down on Israel's side, he will take the contrary view.
Posted by: buzz at July 25, 2006 10:49 AMUh, yeah buzzkill, that's what Angryclown said. I'm guessing you were homeschooled.
Posted by: angryclown at July 25, 2006 11:00 AMOh right, I forgot. You voted for Bush. You don't actually think "stupid" is a bad thing. Carry on.
Posted by: angryclown at July 25, 2006 11:04 AMLOL! Angryclown opining about "sophisticated analysis" is kind of like Oscar the Grouch calling Martha Stewart a bad housekeeper.
Posted by: Ryan at July 25, 2006 12:27 PMAC, lets see if I can help you.
When someone makes an analogy between quarreling children and the parties in the middle east, he's not attempting rigorous analysis. He's attempting to make an amusing comparison, and he succeeded.
And in doing that, he's added more here than you have in the several months I've been reading your disconnected bleatings.
Apologies to Lileks.
Posted by: JonM in MN at July 25, 2006 01:08 PMGood word choice, JonM: "amusing." Not quite "funny", not "smart." Amusing. Like a Bazooka Joe comic or something a precocious three year-old might say.
Thanks for successfully amusing us all, Nathan!
Posted by: angryclown at July 25, 2006 02:02 PMRepeatedly slapped down by multiple comments and the best of his retort is "Hey, you want to be president? Not like you could be any worse."
Hey, you want to start a blog? Not like you could be any worse.
It's kinda sad, really.
