In other words, my cup is 10% full. I, along with the rest of the Jewish (and gypsy) people must be grateful for very small favors. It is just difficult to see the same people who do everything to make the life of holocaust survivors and their children in Israel as difficult as possible and continuing to continuing to be "dictators poodles."

By the way, yesterday I attended a conference organized by FPRI. When I asked a South Korean professor about her people's feelings about the North Korean horrendous Gulag. (See, Revealed: the gas chamber horror of North Korea's gulag) she told me that the material is not published in Korea. Indeed, South Koreans merely refer to alleged atrocities and consider those who raise the subject to be right wing anti-Communists.

On the positive side, Iraqis world wide vote and remind the world that Arabs are not different, they, too, love freedom.
