Last night, Rashid Fayid was on Naharkum Sa`id. He is the news director at Hariri TV (Future TV). He was objecting to the use of the term "civilized" by the opposition in Lebanon--and both sides in Lebanon love to refer to themselves as "civilized" in the hope of getting the attention of the White Man. So Fayid said that some people may be backward and civilized. He said that there are backward countries that are civilized, but that it is a different kind of civilization. He said that there is "civilization in Africa, but it is a backward civilization." This is the movement that captured the hearts of the Western press. Wait. It makes sense. It makes full sense that Western reporters (Nation magazine, Robert Fisk, Washington Post, etc) are supporters of this racist movement.
