On this Memorial Day, I am even angrier with the Middle East. Last year I wrote "The snot faced child demands attention by throwing tantrums." And continues to claim our young. Without showing much gratitude for the sacrifice. The world and even many Americans blame our President,but let's not forget what a mess that part of the world is. While there are clear exceptions like Dubai, that part of the world, endowed with so much wealth could do so much more positive.
So I am glad others are commenting similarly:

Colin Powell in a speech earlier this year said ""Six billion people are trying to move forward, and 150 million in the Middle East band are a cause of trouble,""
Let's finish up in Iraq and start moving away from dependence on their oil. Let's focus on the positive energy in other places in the world. Our young deserve better.
