Obama<\/strong> appeared in Misr yesterday. Misr, for those who are not acquainted, is the endonym<\/em> of Egypt as Deutschland is the endonym of Germany. Americans and other concerned parties might do well to address people how they prefer as Obama made a large effort to do. Obama spoke to a crowd of 3,000 Masri <\/em>and even received several bouts of applause. I viewed the speech with a mix of hope and skepticism. I posted a piece on the HP entitled “The End of the Clash of Civilizations<\/strong>?” Here<\/strong><\/a> is the link. Peace in the Middle East.<\/p>\n

The author describes me as “Liberal” which I found kind of funny seeing as I try and stay above the fray in being labeled one way or the other. I’m guessing USNWR would take me as a Liberal merely for either being on the HP or because I’m not a card-carrying Likudnik<\/strong><\/em>. But hey, any press is good press!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
