I love how we ignore "idiots" like Jesse Jackson and ignore 99% of the things he says...until he stumbles into something that we feel like is beneficial for our arguments...then he is credible and worthy of being quoted and paid attention to.
Only when he is trying to further his agenda.

I agree that foreign policy should not be made on a biblical belief that is speculation. This debate is interesting. I want only the facts of what is really happening over there. How many of us really know what is going on there? The main thing that gives me pause is Islamic Jihad.....I am scared of that, frankly. It speaks of a spirit that permeates Islamic teachings and nations. So, what is the truth? Who has been on the short end of the stick? I really don't know what the answer is.

Point taken , and I sort of agree, Prophecy will come true no matter how we personally believe,and it may come to pass in a way other than we believe.None the less it will come to pass.....

Well instead of acting like you are smarter than us all, maybe you should enlighten us.
Khalidi opposed America stopping Saddam Hussain from invadint Kuwait.
calling Arab support an "Idiots consensus"
He was the director of the PLO press agency WAFA during the late 70's and early 80's when the PLO was at its most violent.
Here is a nice Khalidi quote
When Palestinian violence garners unfavorable publicity, Khalidi’s response it to blame the messenger, not the murderers. Thus, in response to Palestinians lynched two off-duty Israeli officers on October 12, 2000, Khalidi did not critique the perpetrators of this crime, but railed against the “prostitute” and “cynical” media that dared to show Palestinians triumphantly displaying bloodied hands after the killings. In like spirit, he faults not those Palestinians who erupted in joyous street celebrations at the murders of 3,000 Americans on 9/11, but the media for having the temerity to report these occurrences
This is a man that Barak Obama thinks VERY hightly of.
