Meh.

Card's little rant there is just as rabidly anti-Arab to the same degree as accuses the author of that book being anti-Israel. He's painting the Palestinian Arabs as a horde of murdering, bloodthirsty, prideful genocidal maniacs bent on slaughtering ever jew that draws breath.

The fact is that neither of these two groups are innocent of wrongdoing.

Card having wrote this article diminishes significantly my respect for him as a writer, though. I don't think I'll be finishing "The Worthing Saga", or buying any more of his books, after all.
