Which we were doing too at school, some 30 years ago. Not as an excercise, but out of fun. To see, if we were able to fludily write from right to left and how close we could get to the original. It's only one word, actually. One set of Arqabic letters.
Guess, we were indoctrinating ourselves back then.
Sometimes I really get the feeling, America was really fond of the McCarthy years and couldn't wait for a second helping with a new enemy.
But we have an even darker past to draw from. And it's not as if our rightwingers wouldn't gladly embrace the opportunity.
If they were writing a christian declaration of faith, you would be shitting your pants with anger.
