17. He's opposed to U.S. policy - so he MUST be our friend!

That's the simplistic thinking of many. If you bring up any of the outrages of Islamic law, they immediately talk about something wrong with the United States. It's simplistic, but many like it that way. It makes them feel even more "radical." UNTIL, of course, they would have to spend a day living as an Iranian citizen. Blogs? - Forget it. Forums - Forget it. Right now many are sooo outraged at BushCo that anything else must be better - and that's just not true. Our simple presence and discussion here confirms that.
