Scott Anderson Quotes

Certainly, Blame For All This [turmoil In The Middle East] Doesn't Rest Solely With The Terrible Decisions That Were Made At The End Of World War I, But It Was Then That One Particularly Toxic Seed Was Planted. Ever Since, Arab Society Has Tended To Define Itself Less By What It Aspires To Become Than By What It Is Opposed To: Colonialism, Zionism, Western Imperialism In Its Many Forms. This Culture Of Opposition Has Been Manipulated - Indeed, Feverishly Nurtured - By Generations Of Arab Dictators Intent On Channeling Their People's Anger Away From Their Own Misrule In Favor Of The External Threat, Whether It Is "the Great Satan" Or The "illegitimate Zionist Entity" Or Western Music Playing On The Streets Of Cairo.
