Politicians. They stink. They are so unrepresentative and they have thin skins. They don&#039;t understand their job is to serve people, not themselves and if they can&#039;t take the heat get out of the kitchen.Afif says I &quot;attacked&quot; him ... wow. If you don&#039;t kiss their asses then your a bad person. You know what, Afif never did anything to help me before so why should I care. And if I wanted to attack Afif and the PLO which has done a terrible job both as leaders and with communications, I could do a number on them they would never forget.But I understand, Afif is a good person. Well spoken, with one of those accents that makes him sound more educated than elitist. But the fact is the PLO is the PLO, a bunch of people who are so arrogant they think they know everything and they feel no responsibility to the people.So Afif, sorry if you think that I &quot;attacked&quot; you. I did not. But I have little respect for government leaders in the Arab World. They&#039;re track record, as you might imagine, isn&#039;t very good. And to be frank, I do not expect you to support anything I do as I am a moderate who speaks out against the bad of both sides, and that seems to irritate people in the PLO, in Hamas, in Fatah and in Israel.But who am I and why should you even care?Ray Hanania</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Of course, when I criticize Afif Safieh, even mildly as I did, they get their dander up.

You hit the nail on the head here:&lt;blockquote&gt;It’s easier to whine and complain than to do something positive. &lt;/blockquote&gt;I hope we&#039;ll get to see some videos of your performance. The ones available on YouTube are hilarious.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Excellent post, Ray!
