That is language that is so irresponsible, so reprehensible, I think he should be ashamed. As a country, it has been a consistent ally. The State Department describes them as a vital partner. I don't know why, unless it's simply that it's an Arab country, that he feels he can go over the top and use language of that sort.

The English and Americans dislike only some" Irish - the same Irish that the Irish themselves detest, Irish writers - the ones that think.

They who are ashamed of what they ought not to be ashamed of, and are not ashamed of what they ought to be ashamed of, such men, embracing false doctrines enter the evil path.

Friedrich Max Muller
