It's probably more likely in Canada. When Chomsky meets with Hezbollah it makes me angry but I think it's more because it discredits the Left in the eyes of the Right. I just don't think that Arundhati Roy was the motivation for any Sunnis to fight for freedom in Iraq. Maybe the legitimacy filters from western leftists to Sunni moderates to terror apologists or something.<BR/><BR/>This week's "This American Life" has an interesting and sort of funny piece about Omar Bakri. It's the second story in a show called "Them"<BR/><BR/>www.thislife.orgAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
