I was going to tell you this earlier, as per my plans for Steve-The-Confederate. While I thank you for banning that waste of skin, what we can do is actually utilize his bloody legacy to show just how blood-hungry and illogical his right-wing creed is. Here is what I have in mind: Place a link on the top right-hand corner of your blog, in nice, big, bold, red and white letters. It would say this: <b>"True face of the American right-wing"</b> Underneath it, we would have a short list of say about 5 to-the-point quotes by Steve-The-Confederate himself. Among them would be the (paraphrased from various history of posts): 1) "I hope to see Saudi civilians die en masse" 2) "Every single breathing Muslim is responsible for Sep 11" 3) "Muslims are blood-thirsty and imperialistic, because of Islam..", etc, etc If not quotes, then links to the quotes, so that people can get the context too. Since Steve-The-Confederate seems to <i>really really</i> think he represents the American right-wing, then great! Place the above on your blog, so that any visitor will now know what the American right-wing really stands for. I say this with a touch of humor of course, but I hope you give it serious consideration. Thanks mahmood! :) -Ibn Mahmood!!

To me, anyone or country that kill innocent human are terrorist. I think Presiden Bush is a terrorist simply because he choose to kill innocent people when he has other options. Same goes for Sadam Hussein, Israel PM and many scoundrels that we are better off without. It fills me with great sadness when I see picture children killed by Israel bombs. I am sure its same ugly sight in Haifa. I wish all this war mongering leaders (can we do something to these people, like hang them) perish from this face of the earth. History will repeat itself. The muslims used to be the mightiest and most cultured, now the americans, and there will be others next. I pray for peace, for war there is no winners, all losers.

Ok, then maybe Japan should hit the U.S. with nuclear bombs, since America did it 60 years ago.

I went to his site and was really disturbed at the tone and disrespect. Mind you, it's the same one I have found in other sites of those who are left wing or whatever you want to designate that. Emotions and passions can get the better in all of us, but one's outlook as a whole will definitely taint it by coming out at every turn. However, as you said, Steve can keep those words for his own site, that's his prerogative and that is what blogs are for. It is a shame though because it is always good to have 'the devil's advocate' around for discussing sensitive issues. But, it needs to be done with respect otherwise no discussion can go forward and no one can learn from another person's opinion.

However, as a PR man yourself, being hysterical and too passionate clouds your arguments and discounts people taking note of your points. I implore you to be objective and as much as possible less hysterical. Ramy, I know how painful this is.
