    Yeah, I'm the one who judges people by their names.

    I judge a culture on their actions. Everyone does.

    Ah now you can even tell the culture from the names?

    Pray do tell us what Seeraj Mohammed's culture is?

    When I want information on the Middle East.. I dont trust information from people like George Bush. When I want information on America, I dont trust information from people named Seeraj Mohammed as I am fully aware of the political and religious agendas being played out.

    I suppose you listen to Rush Limbaugh and AIPAC for info on America.

    Err no.. To be honest.. I dont even know who that is. I dont really watch American media.. except (and like once a week only).. the CNN channel. I actually watch more Russia Today and Al Jazeera than CNN.. But SKY and BCC to me work fine.. but most of the time I either download what I wanna watch or watch our SABC.

    I just read he is a conservative. Doubt I would like most of what he had to say. I am a South African liberal.

    I doubt you know much at all, you did not even notice that the original source for Seeraj Mohammed's graphs was the Daily Mail.

    Or the link below the graphs which said:

    So yeah, it was fun exploring your prejudices.

    No, I'm a mongrel.

    And I usually judge facts on their own merit, or with regard to the evidence available in support of bias or lack thereof.

    It means Seeraj Mohammed had nothing to do with it. He was reporting someone else's work. I didn't even notice his name until you brought it up.

    Er that nice.. however.. how does that detract from anything I have said? I thought those world pictures were funky and my only comment about them what the scrappy south african comment.

    Also.. I said our government is corrupt re the quoted South African.

    And frankly... and I still wouldnt trust Seeraj Mohammed for an honest opinion on America or George Bush for an honest opinion on the Middle East.

    I take anything you say as seriously as I would a KKK member.

    Its a good thing then, that Seeraj Mohammed is not relevant here. I trust you'll stick to your tried and true method of separating the wheat from the chaff.

    Any idea how much the Obama administration has set aside?

    A.) The USA has a 14.3 trillion dollar GDP, the USA could afford these wars without breaking a sweat.

    B.) The USA does not conduct arms deals very frequently compared to some countries, *cough Russia*.
