I have to agree that my PhD is basically worthless and I'm teaching at a Houston area community college as proof. However, I understand the Israel/Palestine "conflict" better than anyone wants to give me credit for. Educated, childless, single women are a threat no matter what religion you subscribe to.
Thanks. But pleasantries don't excuse genocide. No one has the right to invade a nation and kill the native population. The entire basis for Israeli colonization is an old book written by Bronze Age nomads who didn't know where the sun went at night. It's not complicated.
I was literally living across the street from Tahrir Square in Cairo, at the American university, when the Egyptian revolution sparked. What a time and place to be as a young American, and to see a sizable plurality of Egyptians fight for freedom, only to be denied by their heavily US backed military who did not want the "chaos and instability of democracy"
Read Phillips for regional history. Islamic studies do not apply. I appreciate your comment.
Who died and left you god to decide what studies do or do not тАШapplyтАЩ? How are we to understand the region without studying Islam?

But we go places in life where we never expected and have experiences along the way weтАЩd never trade.

We are complete hypocrites.
