Double bind :: Reader comments at Daniel Pipes

Submitted by john W. mcginley (United States), Oct 18, 2003 at 00:37

Has Mr. Pipes let his proclivity for stark, clear, and reasoned insight go too far? Not everything in this world of ours lends itself to a simple solution. Where is his concern for the possibility of Iraq becoming what Afghanistan was before 9/11 if control is prematurely given over to Iraq. Those are my thoughts
