blog.&lt;BR/&gt;I have always considered the correlation between activism and extremism disturbing. People of the middle are often the quiet ones and their soft voices are likely to be lost in the radical hubbub. In this instance, I mean the right and left equally although both sides have shed several layers of skin and are more and more turning into unprincipled chameleons.&lt;BR/&gt;There's more to any country than the dirty politicians, corruption, and the violation of human rights. There's more to Syria than the negative images some have to chosen to deliberately and exclusively expose.&lt;BR/&gt;Syria is no Utopia for sure, but as far as I'm concerned, it's the only home I have. I will defend it with every word in the book, using my conscience as a dictionary. If If my shortcoming is mainly that I over-simplify the issues ad/or glorify my homeland I proudly take full blame.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26866567/6995032433037613633/comments/default/6728329819803008430'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26866567/6995032433037613633/comments/default/6728329819803008430'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.abufares.net/2007/04/nothing-to-prove.html?showComment=1177139160000#c6728329819803008430' title=''/><author><name>abufares</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05528721595411746558</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='04201142068011308803'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.abufares.net/2007/04/nothing-to-prove.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26866567.post-6995032433037613633' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26866567/posts/default/6995032433037613633' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26866567.post-4648095462498288260</id><published>2007-04-21T05:03:00.000+03:00</published><updated>2007-04-21T05:03:00.000+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Abu Fares,Just wanted to add my voice of appreciat...</title><content type='html'>Abu Fares,&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Just wanted to add my voice of appreciation for your blog and thank you for the kind words.
