Why Liberals Hate Conservatives

Democracy as We Know It Does Not Work in Muslim Nations

The Middle East will never be made right by force. Competing Islamic groups often gain the trust of the United States only to turn on their benefactors once their sworn Islamic enemies are vanquished with the help of the US military. It happened when our embassy in Iraq was overrun
