I wasn't stating my politics "beast" - I decided not to give my views of politics - I was giving a first hand account of what i witnessed - what's with all of the agression? I don't disagree with some of what you are saying - but why fight for the sake of fighting? My comments didn't cover the entire cause and effect.

I have traveled to the Mid-East 6 times over the past 2 years both as a photojournalist and for humanitarian efforts. I have seen firsthand "both sides" of the fence. I didn't care to discuss Christian Fundamentalism and Muslim friction - it wasn't my point. I was stating my feelings as a spectator in an ever changing political climate.

Maybe you should stop pointing your finger - trying to shove your message down people throats and actually do something positive. Maybe you should climb down from your pedestal and enlighten the "little people" or just "get a clue" and use ALL of your political knowledge to make a difference...whatever that may be.
