Our struggle against Da'esh depends on getting most of the Muslims in the world on our side. There's a reason that Da'esh calls greater Islam "the Grey Zone". They consider those Muslims to be salvageable from sin and apostasy, whereas pagans are not and must simply be killed. Our task is to convince those Muslims that they don't need to be saved by Da'esh. If mistreat the "greys", we cannot get them on our side.

The German woman's name "Gisele" is pronounced /GHEE-zuh-luh/. That happens to have been the name as my high-school German teacher. Of course, I'm presuming I have the spelling right. There's also the French name "Giselle", which is /zhee-ZELL/.

I love Danielle's trick with the Gisele Feldman story. As much as Republicans like to talk about Hitler, they really don't think in terms of what actually happened in that era.

From Screwed:
"If we are going to live in a Democracy, we need to have a healthy middle class. Thom Hartmann shows us how the ‘cons’ have wronged this country, and tells us what needs to be done to reclaim what it is to be American."
Eric Utne, Founder, Utne magazine
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Hartmann combines a remarkable piece of historical research with a brilliant literary style to tell the grand story of corporate corruption and its consequences for society with the force and readability of a great novel."
David C. Korten, author of When Corporations Rule the World and Agenda for A New Economy
From Screwed:
"Once again, Thom Hartmann hits the bull’s eye with a much needed exposé of the so-called ‘free market.’ Anyone concerned about the future of our nation needs to read Screwed now."
Michael Toms, Founding President, New Dimensions World Broadcasting Network and author of A Time For Choices: Deep Dialogues for Deep Democracy
