I hear it all the time, "if you're such a big damned supporter of the war, why don't you send (yourself | your children | your next-of-kin)? Eh? Hypocrite!"

I just found a nice counterpoint:

But you can't [claim to stand for freedom and human rights and then attack everything America has done and tried to do in Iraq over the last four years]. Indeed, by declaring the whole thing illegitimate, all you're doing is siding with the Islamophobes of the world who claim the Muslims and the Arabs are far too savage, backward, and primitive to respect things like democracy and human rights. Indeed, you're implicitly siding the the Jihadwatch crowd.

It's high time someone told you people this, whether you're Muslims or not.

The sad thing is I've had private conversations during which people actually do admit to believing such things about Arabs. Racism isn't just about hating blacks, you know.
