best used as a doorstop

via blogamy, i found this article about "the arab mind", a book considered to be inaccurate and racist by most scholars of the middle east, but a favorite of neo-cons and (even more alarmingly) a standard text book in u.s. military academies.

last december, i noticed an article in which an army captain urged us to understand "the arab mind". now i wonder where captain brown got this notion of the arab mind in the first place.
