I do not support peace in the Middle East. And I do not support Arafat. He is a stupid, incompetent fool!
The problem is that the East is producing missiles and the West is producing pacifists.
Nixon would like to consign us to to the level of the most backward countries in the whole Middle East. Why lower us to the standard of the Saudis rather than raising the Saudis to meet us?
One has to remember that every progress that has been made towards peace in the Middle East has come under American leadership.
We have been there for 15 years in the Middle East, and much more than that probably. And we have spent probably $4 trillion, maybe more than that. And it's time to do something about it. And it's time to also knock ISIS out. You got to knock ISIS out.
The West for me means ambition, the East contentment. My heart is ever in one, my soul in the other.
The other world is as to this like the east to the west. We cannot approach the one without turning away from the other.
If I see another David Gold interview on the poor East End Jewish boy done good I'll impale myself on one of his dildos.
Critics of the war plans (including myself) have pointed to the disastrous political results that must be expected: Iraq would break into three parts (Kurds in the north, Sunnis in the center, Shi'ites in the south), the Middle East would be exposed to the onslaught of Iranian fanaticism, pro-Western Arab regimes would collapse. Israel would be surrounded by aggressive Islamic fundamentalism, like the Crusader kingdom with the advent of Saladin.
In the West, the spirit is separate from the body. In the East these are things that are very real and concrete.
I would want to conceive of philosophy as grounded in the very long humanist tradition that is the best of the West, which is open to the East and North and South.
At the moment, the extremists have significant financial popular and theological backing in the Middle East. And that is an enduring phenomenon. And it's one that is going to require a long, ideological war to win.
The Indians knew that life was equated with the earth and its resources, that America was a paradise, and they could not comprehend why the intruders from the East were determined to destroy all that was Indian as well as America itself.
In the East men know panic, but they do not know what fright is.
There's a lot of expectation in the Middle East that post-Obama there will be a sort of tougher U. S. line on Assad, there will be more intervention and so forth. But I don't know if that's going to be fulfilled. If there is more intervention, then I think it's going to go the same way as these other interventions that we've seen in Iraq, we've seen, to a degree, in Syria, we've seen in Libya, you know, that they do really badly. They make bad situations worse.
It is against the will of God that the East should be Christianized.
Dont test me, Second guess me, Protest me, You will DISAPEAR! (East Jesus of Nowhere)
Many are concerned about the monuments of the West and the East -- to know who built them. For my part, I should like to know who in those days did not build them -- who were above such trifling.
I know the war in Iraq is controversial in the States, but for us in the Middle East it has made a great and significant impact.
The wind's in the east. . . . I am always conscious of an uncomfortable sensation now and then when the wind is blowing in the east.
