AR> Yoy are beginning to appear as an extremely sheltered person.
Then obviously you don't know me well.  I won't take it personally.

AR> We here in the US consider them terrorists.
AR> However, in the Mid Ease\t (Lebanon, Egypt, Iran, Jordan, etc) they are

Okay, I understand a little, even though I still don't understand how making 
it sound better actually makes it better.  Example, a theif can say he didn't 
actually steal anything.  He can say he was just borrowing without 
permission.  That sonds better, doesn't it?  However, he's still a theif.
Peace.
