Rarely. People have trouble just agreeing on what constitutes "facts" to begin with.

I'm tired of the whole region. A bunch of nations that can't be bothered to help their own citizens, being too busy trying to wipe out neighbors on all sides. And nearly all of it thanks to differing religions.

Do we need any better example of the foolishness of having a national religion? Do Americans really want a country that resembles those in the Middle East? Have they set any sort of example for the rest of the world by fighting over religious differences, killing in support of peace? A modern state that espouses a national religion and is at peace is rare.

I don't support any nation in the M.E. I think they all are doomed to evolve out of existence at some point. The rest of the world moves on and grows impatient with countries that haven't progressed beyond the 1st century.
