There a graet number of Islamic dissidents who want to introduce the rule of law and respect for human rights into the Middle East. We should be on their side. Not hiding our collective head in the sand. Thats a neo-realist foreign policy and its what we fought against for decades. Human rights abuses should be called out everywhere they occur and using a uniform standard. Whether we want to accept it or not, Islam does have to square this for themselves. But to argue that somehow we should not be involved at all is unbelievable. So next time I dont want to hear anyone of you complain about Chinese human rights violations. I hate Bush as much as I hate the religious fanatics of all faiths, but there is no lesser of two evils.
