I'm still trying to figure out why so many Muslims get so incensed about a book, picture or cartoon that takes a shot at a dead prophet. Many years ago some goober dropped a crucifix in a beaker of piss and called it art. Care to imagine the response if he'd done that with any religious artifact related to Islam?

Oil in the ME. OK, but who uses that oil? We don't. We get almost no ME oil; it goes to China and Europe. I don't see how oil in the ME is our reason to be there. let the countries who need that oil take care of the situation there. Lets take our $3T in aid to Egypt, and whatever else we spend over there, and come home.
