    If one follows the news, all the events in the Middle East going on at the same time can make a person wonder what is happening. To name just a few:
    1. Turkey threatening to invade Iraq over the Kurds
    2. Fighting in Lebanon
    3. Iran supporting terrorists in Lebanon and Iraq
    4. Iran's nuclear program
    5. Iran's threat to wipe out Israel
    6. Israel and Palestinian fighting
    7. Continued and no end in sight of American involvement in Iraq

    No doubt there are many more factors at play here. I wonder sometimes if all these events are coordinated by the Islamic terrorists to achieve some ultimate goal, just on many fronts. One thing I left out is the constant effort the overthrow the government of Saudi Arabia with Islamic extremeists.

    Does anyone think these events are all connected for some ultimate purpose that could not be good for this nation, or is it just that lots of people over there like to fight. I mean all connected in the sense of being orchestrated by the terrorists, not in a sense of God accomplishing His purposes, which, of course He is.

    Bingo. They are lot like the Christians in Europe were a few hundred years ago when Catholics and Protestants fought wars with each other.

    It's simple, saturneptune, it's the nutty evil religion they cherish so much. They cherish death more than life. Blame Moe. Evil never makes any sense to rantional people.

    You guessed right. They like to fight and have been doing so for many thousands of years in that area. Tribalism is one of the problems. Various tribes there fight each other.
