"What effect must it have on a nation if it learns no foreign languages? Probably much the same as that which a total withdrawal from society has upon an individual." --G.C. Lichtenberg
I can't wait to see Sully's latest imbecility demolished by the capable minds on the left. I just don't have the energy today. But I will point out one howler to get things started.
Why would the conflict between Jews and Arabs in the Middle East, bubbling for millennia, automatically be required one day to end?
The conflict between Jews and Arabs in the Middle East, Andy, has been bubbling in anything approaching its current form since the 1880's, tops. Compared to any other two very different groups in such proximity to one another, Jews and Arabs have historically gotten along better than anyone else. The conflict has to do only with the state of Israel in Palestine. Get your facts right before you start twisting them. posted by David at 9/11/2002 09:59:00 AM ::
