This is about the American Holocaust.

"WHERE" Ras gets his posted information is irrelevant IMO... as long as his posted information is correct and makes sense... and it does!
To bring this up, is childish to say the least. To bring up site rules as a pretext to stop someone from posting is despicable social behavior and should be addressed. A good healthy debate is what helps us understand each other better... Murking up the waters does not. If you're offended about the subject or you believe the material is false, you're free to post your own truths here.

It is not surprising you think that someone might rubbish Edward Said
because most of what Edward Said said was rubbish!



Said is dead and his neo-liberal US and Israel bashing is now passe.
Only a few intellectual-wanna-bes and hangers on from the 80s are
still trying to blame the world's ailments on US policy rather than
focusing on the real issues confronting us today such as the rise
of militant intolerant Islamic groups and world extortion by OPEC.

After a couple of centuries of real intellectual growth and dramatic
educational progress in the US, people realize that there is no
empire of domination by the US. Instead, China, Russia, India, Japan and
others are developing vibrant challenging societies which continue
to vie for improved quality of life and supremacy of knowledge and
development.

Meanwhile with the exception of Israel, the entire rest of the Middle East
is mired and wallowing in Islamic extremism and intolerance and
subjugating ignorance of their female populations. This is the real
tragedy of the Palestinians, Egyptians, Iraqis, Iranians and others
downtrodden by the boots of the Imams in the Arab world.

It is a very sad fact that none of it can be reasonably blamed on
Israel or the US - and Said did not live to see his paranoid theses
of non-existent world domination disproved. But they are disproved
and everyone now knows it. The question is: How will the Arab countries
and the rest of the world overcome the stifling influence of the
modern day Islamic religious bigots and start to overcome their
ignorance and blind hatred to live with Jews and Christians and
Israel in mutual respect and peace...

No need to trash Said. It is not about him and it never was.
Although his ideas were rubbish and his scholarship was lame and
his writings unsupported...He was trying. Unfortunately his story
was one-sided and it failed miserably. And now we know better and
in this age of rapid communication it is a lot easier to see Said's
failures and move on the the real issues....

Said trashed himself and now we just step over the rubbish heap and
make our way instead onto the true path to non-Said enlightenment.

It is not the Israelis, it is not the Jews, it is not the Americans,
it is not the Zionists. It is the Arabs and Palestinians, it is the
radical Islamists, it is the purveyors of religious intolerance who
we must all abhor and condemn.

Nope you can't turn love off or no but you can get over it.
