    "Khalidi has gone so far as to say that 'we owe reparations to the Iraqi people.'"

    You're joking, right? This is crazy? Not the view that seems to prevail in Washington--that the U.S. has given that ungrateful country a "gift" by causing the deaths of hundreds of thousands and creating the biggest refugee crisis since the Second World War?

    I expect this kind of crap from my TV--not from *Salon.*
