...who is CJ?

She was the White House Press Secretary under President Bartlet.

CJ Cregg was the name of the character I mentioned, in a TV show called The West Wing, which was a show about a highly intelligent Democratic President Barltet, and the magical land where Democrats and Independents went to live when Bush was President.

The logical fallacy, post hoc, ergo propter hoc, was the theme and title of one episode.

Isn't Israel a liberal democracy...? Or is Israel different in somehow, or not part of the Middle East...?

They're different somehow.

The reply was to a post that inferred that people in the Middle East would reject Islam if only they lived in a democracy and had a choice. That Middle East governments imposed a culture on Middle East people; that Middle East people would not choose that type of culture given a choice.

Or maybe I should have included Israel. If people really would reject Islam given the choice, then a single combined Israeli/Palestinian state should be no problem even if Palestinians outnumbered Israelis.

Or, perhaps, even if Palestinians weren't Islamic, you'd still have a problem in that Palestinians are Arabs. Maybe there's more to Arabic culture than just their religion.

No it is not after all Terrorism is an idea not some thing that you have to fight

Only education and Hope can stop it not war and advance arsenal

After all ideas are bullet proof

For example where I came from only 4% of people have university degree

That make them venerable to bad influence

Ok

Education what we can do

Start in the school support the teachers[ who have a university degree] financially and that will make them capable to do some damage to the idea of terrorism

Yes, a War on Terrorism is worth it. No, a 'Tip-toe around the issue and try to please both sides while Infantryman die on the ground due to lack of support' on Terrorism, is not worth it.
