Better Late than Never

I missed this Juan Cole post when it came out Wednesday--but linked over upon seeing a reference from Needlenose.

While I don't hold out much hope Dennis Prager will be enlightened by Cole's response to his op-ed (it seems fools like Prager achieve their positions BECAUSE of their ignorance), the essay is worth reading. While you're there, you might want to also take a look at a previous post (linked) noting that Muslims aren't silent at all when it comes to condemning acts of terror--although this isn't exactly front page news in the west (maybe because it doesn't fit the paradigm?).

If ignorance is bliss, Dennis Prager is on Cloud Nine.
