By contrast, I suppose that the attitudes of the various Lebanese factions,
the PLO, Iran, Syria, Iraq and others are not self-righteous.  Azhrarn,
is that what you meant?  Really?  I   can't    believe it.

By contrast, the behavior of the PLO does not strike me as self-righteous.
It strikes me as ruthless.  It strikes me as violent.  If they are self-
righteous, this has certainly never bothered me.

If someone were threatening to blow up your houses and shoot your friends,
would you be bothered by their SNOBBISHNESS????
