You sound like you think that may be a bad thing....

I'd like to think that, but there is no reason to be sure this is the case.

Well, my personal feeling is that changing your foreign policy as the
result of terrorist attacks is _always_ wrong.

The US has recognised the right of the State of Israel to exist. Why should
they stop supporting them? Supporting Israel to simply get at the Arabs is
wrong, but why stop supporting an otherwise closely allied country?

I've advocated no such thing.

Oddly, no. It may come as a shock but you, your head and turds (or any
combination) have never really played a big part in my dreams.

Is this all part of your dream sequences? Do you have trouble telling
reality from dream? From your yawning (and posts) it may be the case....

It is not that odd. Extremists are striving for a very high degreee
of coherence, in their own camp. This involves "purifying" your side
from "dubious elements".
