Heavy on the bile ... nonexistent on a solution - blaming RHO isn't a solution. As the author states, "The real problem is that Islamic terrorism feeds off the self-induced failures of the Middle East." OK ... did RHO create the failures? No. Does the author offer any solutions? No. Does the author point out anything RHO did to make things worse? Certainly true that RHO was wildly over-optimistic that he could change relations with the Middle East but that doesn't translate into making things worse. Something is broken - I say I can fix it - I can't fix it - it remains just a broken as before.
