"You Can Take An Arab Out of the Middle East, but

you can't take the Middle East out of an Arab."

This would seem to be a basic lesson Bush should have learned a long time ago. Cultural Anthropology 101 would have sufficed.

This piece is the latest evidence of the old aphorism about a man and his culture.

As has been true all along, when we leave in 2011(I'll believe it when I see it) Iraqi culture will reassert itself, unencumbered by the western culture which has been imposed on it by force.
