MORE PROOF OF GARBAGE FROM THE USUAL SUSPECTS
Just like Atkins below, the same types of people ignored tons of knowledgeable people regarding the Arab "Street", Arab attitudes, the ways the leaders would react and so on. People like Pipes, Lewis, Kaplan, Emerson and some others were ignored by the Left. Instead they followed a completely discredited Leftist named Edward Said who has spread his BS into almost every college classroom in the U.S.

Today's WSJ editorial is only a surprise to the followers of Mr. Said. Completely predictable to the rest of us.
