...right wingnut "idiology" (misspelled on purpose) has something to do with this?

NYT, Thomas Friedman: "Jews, Israel and America"

http://www.nytimes.com/2004/10/24/opinion/24friedman.html?oref=login&th

..."Many Iraqis have so much distrust for U.S. forces we found they've come up with a nickname for our troops," Scott said. "They call American soldiers 'The Jews,' as in, 'Don't go down that street, the Jews set up a roadblock.' "

...And it's partly because the Bush team, which is so inept at diplomacy, has never had the energy or creativity to shape a better Palestinian alternative to Arafat. As a result, the Sharon vision of getting out of Gaza in order to take over the West Bank will probably win by default. If that happens, "Jews, Israel and America" will be bound together more tightly than ever as the enemies of Arabs and Muslims.

3. If only Roveists were as good at foreign diplomacy...

... as they are at deceiving American citizens with their propaganda. Thing is, we trusted them. Iraqis know better. Well, now we know too. Kerry is going to have quite a mess to fix.
