   The long and overly-heated 'discussion' in this thread reminds me of the thoughtful observation of the noted Lebanese historian Kamal Salibi that many (perhaps most) wars are fought over the interpretation of the past. 
 The level of personal hostility and 'ad hominem' attacks displayed in recent emails to this list is truly astonishing, and frightening. I hope that it will not continue. It is inappropriate, uncalled for, and certainly uncivilized!
