If you still don't believe that George Bush is going to have a street named after him in every Arab capital by the end of the decade, all you need to do is read Little Green Footballs. It wasn't too long ago when all you would read about were those nasty terrorists, killing and threatening Jews and Americans. The Arab Street seething with hate against the imposition of our foreign, imperialist, liberal culture.

Now look at some of most recent posts.

Kuwaiti Women Demonstrate
Waves of Freedom Reach Morocco
Afghanistan Attacks Decline Dramatically

It's nice that I don't have to avoid LGF anymore when I'm already depressed for fear that I'll be overwhelmed by the evil that men do.

Just for fun, I'll throw in an recent Liberal prediction which seems to be the favorite sport of the moment for right-leaning bloggers such as myself. This quote comes from Ronald Brownstein of the L.A. Times on Janauary 24, 2005.

Bush hopes that elections in Iraq will create a domino-like pressure for change throughout the region. But the chaos engulfing Iraq makes it unlikely that many in the Middle East will see it as a model any time soon. A senior Saudi official last week cited Iraq's turmoil as a justification for avoiding full-scale national elections.
