I disagree :: Reader comments at Daniel Pipes

Submitted by Sam Selber (United States), Oct 26, 2004 at 11:25

I agree with your general view of the war on islamic militancy, but to assume that George Bush is the one to conduct it I believe is totally wrong. I don't think he grasps the large issues confronting the world and sees things in a very simplistic and narrow way.

You surprised me with your support even though i know you are considered "conservative;" I had hoped you would have a different view in this case.
