You have a younger generation who, amazingly, successfully and peacefully overthrows an entrenched 30-year dictator, it's in the interest of most in the world to try and ensure that nascent cry for democracy doesn't again go the way of Hamas. They are trying the same protests in Iran right now, and thousands are arrested, beaten, killed. Not going as Egypt did. Algeria, Yemen ....
But thinking all people of the middle east are islamic terrorists, or secret islamic terrorists, bent upon taking over the entire world, are the absurd hysterical crazy rantings of a Glenn Beck.

You're quick to correct anyone when they put words in your mouth - don't do it to others. I never said that all Muslims are terrorists. There are moderates who, if they are true to their religion, believe in the propogation of their faith to eventually envelop the world. Big, big difference.
