  Re: Special Identification for Arab Americans?
 
(...) Holy Toledo. I would have expected a peak of maybe 30% for the ID question (still frightening). That poll was done on 14-15 sep, I really hope the percentage has dropped (a lot) in the last week and a bit. Man. That means half the people (...)

  Still more perspectives on the tragedy

When I played cowboys and indians or whatever as a kid (actually, I think I did more "allies vs axis" WWII play than cowboys and indians), I was not being taught by my elders that (...)

Dave I have provided support for my argument. I have never said that I think 500,000 have died due to sanctions. Never. I disagree with Larry when he says none have died.
