This country could have saved billons of dollars and lives if they had read the report of the imminent attack on this country before 9/11. All those people who say that we are safer now, should listen and read first.

Perhaps the Arab/Muslim world would like to live in a democratic world and perhaps to get there would take the recognition of Hamas and Hezbollah as political players in those countries. But, will democracy change the majority of the Middle East that has always wanted Israel to no longer exist? Will a democratic government in the countries surrounding Israel help safeguard Israelis from having rockets launched on them at random times during the day and night?

Had this magnificent idea materialized in some other presidential administration it may have become reality, but Bush underestimated the opposition, and as so sober is the reality, no one cares about a world leader who talks cheap, but instead fails to be a true voice for democracy, rather a true voice of hypocrisy.

Bush Doctrine of no talking or negotiating, how can one know what is the intention or thinking of the other party, just use brutal force and then talk. Is not this the way the jungle law operates, aren't we humans capable of doing horrible acts to each other. When do we stop to reason at least above the 'monkey reasoning'.
