Respect is indeed a two way street ...
but lately, it seems to only run in one direction. They're demanding we walk on eggshells to avoid offending their sensibilities. I understand the position some of those governments are in. There are words spoken for public consumption that can be very different from what's said and done behind the scenes. Still, I don't see a lot of respect coming from them. When push comes to shove, I don't know if we can count on any of our "allies" in the Moslem world. With many more "allies" like Saudi Arabia, why should we need enemies?
