The Middle East – What’s next?

The bumpy ride in the Middle East,

US Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi sure is having a lot of fun, putting words in the mouths of Israeli and Syrian leaders, contradicting one another in what Pelosi had been announcing as a major breakthrough in the Middle East, at last that is what The Jerusalem Post is reporting.

The Washington Post, never one to avoid saying what they feel, has an article, titled, Pratfall in Damascus, Nancy Pelosi's foolish shuttle diplomacy. This morning is proving to be more entertaining as it progresses. Let me get another cup of coffee and explain things a bit.

Of course, Pelosi was only trying to show the world what a wonderful tactician and Middle East diplomat she truly was, when prudence should have dictated her keeping quiet on matters. Whether one of the two, Israel or Syria had made moves towards peace is immaterial now that Pelosi, in her desire to rub her achievements in the face of President Bush, broke the first rule of diplomacy, never tell the media what is truly going on behind those closed doors.

The Cheshire cat of Iran,

Can the Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad become any more of a slimy looking toad, tongue posed like a voracious snake awaiting its prey? The Sun is reporting that this disgusting excuse for a human being actually was making sick jokes with one of the UK hostages. The Sun reported the scene in an article titled, Freed 15 taunted by Captors, they reported "With a creepy smile, the president asked captive Leading Seaman Chris Coe, 31: "Have you enjoyed your mandatory vacation?"

This throw-back to the Stone Age makes me nauseous, as The Sun reported; Ahmadinejad actually bragged to the world that he ordered their release as an Easter gift to the British people.

Here is a suggestion, once all of the hostages are safely home, reunited with loved ones, debriefed and their lives back to whatever normalcy they will see in awhile, let's send a thank you gift to Iran. The United States should team with Britton and send a little something for their continuous release of hostages, both the 1979 American hostage incident and the current UK 15 captives. Let's place one of our stealth bombers in the sky, loaded with a few nicely wrapped, smart bombs and send them to drop them on top of the head of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and his friends.

After all, what would the world think if we were not thankful?

You write well.....ha ha ha. Too funny.

From what I have gathered on the middle east women are usually treated with distain. They are there to have the babies and work the field.

E said what really bothered him as he went on missions was to see the men at the side of the road.....doing nothing......as their women worked in the hot sun like slaves. He wanted (and I believe did) to scream at them, get off yer ##### and get to work. Reminded him of the welfare culture here at home.

With the Arab view of women....tell me how in the horrible hell can Pelosi or the Hillary-Meister even think to make ANY difference.

idiots all.

How demeaning to see them in those scarfs.....makes me ill.

Hi Mamabear,

Thanks,yep, the Middle East is a patriarch dominated society. Women are chattel, work the fields, pop the babies out and keep their mouths shut. If these men came to America, their wifes would learn quick and show them who is really the boss.
