6. i agree with Lerkfish
if you think about it, the muslim world has had its moments of moderation, though it may not always be in line of what the "west" wants.

i agree though that the state of israel today should be seen as an extreme conservative state which takes military action against others of different religion or ethnicity very lightly.

i would definitely like to see the arab nations develop and conform with less religious extremism and more "capitalistic" tendencies... however i would also like to see the state of israel tone down its religious extremism and nationalism too.

is this possible? we do not hesitate to criticize the arab nations... why stop there?
