"intellectuals"

Here is an article found linked off of the command post site. i commented over there, so i won't recycle that post totally, but i will link it here.

basically, i see the difference between iraqi intellectuals and american intellectuals as one of experience in the real world. no weighty philosophical tomes and self-important exposition. bullets, midnight raids, daughters stolen, raped, killed, and then dumped on your doorstep. mighty big difference.
