Falling into an old trap
"The heart of the matter is that the current Israeli government has a problem with the roadmap because the roadmap is about ending the occupation. This government, on the contrary, is trying in many ways, including through the so-called disengagement plan, to consolidate the occupation."

"Pakistani Americans voted 80% for Bush in 2000, this time because of the highhandness of the law enforcement agencies (LEAs) in applying the Patriot Act they will probably vote 80% against Bush in 2004, i.e. Kerry benefits from the widespread dislike for the incumbent. Since Pakistani Americans are affected, for them this is a fair choice."
It all depends on the leaders
"If Sharon were soon to be confronted by a new, more moderate and rational Palestinian leadership and a more determined US administration, he would be hard put to rebuff pressures at least to enter into some sort of disengagement-related dialogue."
Osama endorses Bush
"For bin Laden, the Bush Administration's massive ignorance about Islam and what drives al-Qaeda has worked greatly to his advantage. Bush cannot imagine how to win the hearts and minds of Iraqis, other than promise them "democracy". He will have to continue blowing up a major portion of Iraq before it can be made "secure" for elections."
Choose dignity and vote for Nader
"Arab-Americans should be wary of any illusions that the Republicans and Democrats will stop shunning us anytime soon. They have cast us aside and made us feel like stepchildren in our own country. We have been defamed in public and labeled unworthy of full civil rights. Both Democrats and Republicans meet our concerns and our aspirations with disdain."
