I'm just catching up on reading today; yes, I'll join the chorus of "keep posting about what you know so well!" As for me, I'm jittery about Egypt's now porous border with Israel, and the fact that before all this started, Egyptian and Israeli military kept those borders peaceful. Now, all bets are off. You'd think that those protesting there would concentrate on securing basic human needs (food, shelter, employment); rather than chasing a hateful ideology. Keep writing, Naut....Mal

I think caricatures are neat, some better than others of course.
This post was interesting in a different way from the first three. I like it that you critique yourself when you think it is warranted.

Caricature? I think you were explainning everything very well. Remember that what to you is twodimensional to some like myself , who hear most of it for t he first time, your words have meaning and an amazing clarity that allows me to understand complicated matters I did not before. Kabu is right in that it would be impossible to cover everything... but you are doing a great job Naut. Please, no maybes... Though I love to hear about your doggie I am get sorely needed information from your posts on Islam so selfishly I am asking you to go on :-) xoxoxo

The subject you are covering is a huge one. I for one feel that you have done a fine job of highlighting the major issues within the Blogging sphere...It'll be interesting to see what the fallout is in Egypt.

you are right dear Naut when you say that this is a huge subject
and I think you should tie your ends in with point form.
One would almost need to write a History of the last more than 2000 years in depth of volumes to really show why and where.....I mean I heard today that there are Islamic factions that believe that Spain belongs to them because the Moors were in Spain for centuries until Ferdinand and Isobella destroyed defeated them. Perhaps they have a point ...but not in my book.
I want to see you tie Germany back into your argument.
