An ally arrives in Houston
The emir of Qatar, Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al—Thani, visits Houston this week and the Houston Chronicle greets his arrival with a sensible op—ed, emphasizing many of the same points Ed Lasky did much earlier, on this website. Progressive Arab Muslim states are very, very important friends of the United States, and of civilization itself, for they point the way to others.
