Mohammed at ITM writes about the difference in Iraqis' joy at hearing of the death of the devil Zarqawi, and the response of the rest of the Middle East!  He's furious, and expresses his wish to pick up Iraq and move it out of its poisonous neighborhood. 

"To say I was angry is the least I can say to describe how I felt reading the comments from Arabs on a BBC forum. There was no surprise that all Iraqi commentators were pleased that we got rid of that vicious terrorists but on the other hand there was probably 90% of non-Iraqi Arab commentators who mourned him as a martyr.

Here I'm choosing only one comment that drew my attention because it shows how when hate prejudice reaches certain levels it blinds the minds and hearts of people."

Go read the rest, and then ask yourself if you believe, as I do, that Iraq was the perfect ME country to plant the seeds of democracy?  George W. Bush will go down in history as Iraq's founding father.  Fitting.  Another George was ours.
