Arabian Dissent is watching the situation in Iraq and finds signs that a major meltdown over the attack on the Golden Mosque may be avoided. Let’s hope.
Keep your eye on the Iraqi bloggers on the sidebar, too. They’re invariably more accurate in their analysis than the mainstream media.

A cartoon started this…or did it really?

Dead children. Dead tourists. Dead teachers. Dead doctors and nurses. Dead Americans in New York City. Death, destruction and mayhem around the world at the hands of Muslims ….no Muslim outrage … but publish a cartoon depicting Mohammed with a bomb in his turban and all hell breaks loose.
When does the rest of the world have the right to be outraged and say enough is enough?
The Muslims are largely killing themselves in these riots. With cartoons of mass destruction, who needs a bomb?

It’s a global thing. Like oil. This may surprise you, but countries other than Canada use water daily as well. The fight over water and water rights has already began. It will dwarf the fight over oil.
