Thank you for posting that. Now I'm even MORE sure that there is more to the opening post than many here think. And I use the term 'think' lightly. I'm in shock at how many bought the top layer of the OP without seeing through the holes. :shk:

Yep. And I got a 'warning' on page one for supposed 'hate speech'. All I did was turn the guys' questions around and ask him the same damn thing he 'asked' us (accused us of). What is really sad is that this is supposed to be a place where people don't take things at face value but instead actually scratch the surface and check things out before believing them. The opening post was full of holes. The guy hasn't returned to answer anything.
185 stars for the guy. 173 Flags too. 16 pages. A whole lotta' ATSers buying into it.
And the guy hasn't come back to address the questions put forth to him.
I am planning a trip to Iran next summer and suspect that I will find a most hospitable people, as is common in the ME region in my experiences.
Recently, on a trip in London, on a cold Saturday night, I was hassled on the tube, some young punk, making lewd remarks and saying he was going to "**** me" whether I liked it or not...The tube was full of people, not one single person stood up to him or tried to help me in anyway. They all looked away...and pretended not see what was happening.

But there are good people everywhere too
don't judge all Americans by the idiots (in government or otherwise)
it really isn't our fault that its the idiots who get the media time
whatever news you get about America, is filtered
- its not quite reality

To the poster who said the ME was a hell hole where no American is safe: I have travelled extensively in the Middle East ( as a white woman) and have never felt in danger. I felt safer walking down the streets of Damascus then the streets of London and LA.
