A small difference

Harrak > ....and may be supporting the Sahrawi Arab Terrorists is a sop to Algeria! I hear you Dr Pipes. But I can guarentee you that the same way no one (in the West in your opinion) do not consider Mujahedeen e Khalgh terrorists, no one by the same token in the east consider Hizbollah or Hamas terrorists..so why the blame and what is the difference between supporting a terror group aiming to destroy Iranian regime and supporting a terror group aiming to destry Israel..both are the same.

One small difference will be though that after destroying the Iranian regime Iranians will continue to exist as Iranians as they have done - with one fateful exception of the Moslem conquest in the 7th century - for amost three millenia while after destroying Israel not a single Israeli will survive as the second holocaust will complete what the first has left unfinished.

> The bottom line is that this war using terror is a lose lose deal because the western mentality is earthly based and the Muslim (engaged) mentality is heavenly based.

In worldly words : Western terror -if it exists- ceases as soon as an earthly objective is achieved while Muslim terror will never end as there is no alternative to things heavenly based.
