While we're copy/pasting without attribution, allow me to copy/paste this from the Netscape forums in reply to this exact post, since edited by the forum staff for copyright infringement:
Quote:
Your entire message was a crosspost from a blog. Unless your name is Fethullah Gulen, it is also a violation of copyright. I've removed the balance of your message and replaced it with a link to the essay you quoted.

Please be aware that while we have no objection to people quoting in moderation from other sites or texts, fair use laws require it to be a short passage, given with attribution.

In addition, this is a discussion forum, and it is therefore forum policy that one frames any quotes with one's own words; there's an informal 50% guideline that says basically that about half of any forum post should be in one's own words.
