[Vision2020] Coulter's Dream - from CNN

[Mark Solomon]

"Most leaders of Middle Eastern nations hoard 
their nations wealth, living in lavish palaces 
while their constituents live in dire poverty 
lacking even the basics of proper medical care. 
They also deny democracy and a voice to the 
people, and basic freedom of speech."
