Now WE just have to get out of Iraq and Afghanistan so the two sides can duke it out

Reader comment on item: The "Middle East Cold War" Reaches Morocco

Submitted by Charles Martel (United States), Mar 16, 2009 at 12:08

I'm furious at Bush for getting rid of the toughest secular government in the area, as well as trying to impose a western "democracy" on the tribes of Afghanistan, but thank Allah that his murdering followers are still eager to kill each other in the guise of Shiite-Sunni differences.

Morocco is clearly a side show, and I'm sad that they're actually weighing in at all because I definitely prefer the Iranian-Shiite side in this struggle, but it is good to have that excellent MEMRI article brought to the fore again.
