A meeting of minds

Mohammed at http://iraqthemodel.blogspot.com/ in his latest post about the Arab media, develops at least two themes that I am very focused on.

First, the lying that cloaks the Arab world like a wraith, guarunteeing failure and behaviour that is completely antithetical to the Arabs own goals.

Second, the blindness of the haters in the Middle East, and their faithful chorus in Europe to any cruelty or bestial behaviour that is inconvenient, or doesn't fit into the dramatic narrative they have written for themselves.

I believe that a worldwide consensus is building up, which endeavors to incorporate all the facts into a coherent picture of what is really going on in the world, especially its more complex and confusing corners. Those of us who don't hate for the sake of hating, and who will peace with justice and without tyranny must bind together to take the world away from the fanatics and the destroyers of life.
