Ship Of Fools – False Flags On The High Seas
Did you hear about the ‘kidnapping’ of passengers on a Flotilla to Gaza? Did you hear about ‘ransom demands’ by the ‘captain’ of the ship?
NO???
Just what I thought…. you know why? It’s all BS!
Nothing but a cheap and slimy way to get the attention of the press… but it does not seem to be working.
Fireworks Light Up Dubai as Gaza Sleeps in Darkness
By Nadia W. Awad Dubai was the center of attention again last week as it spent $20 million on an exorbitantly lavish, all-night party to celebrate the opening of its latest hotel, the Atlantis Palm Jumeirah.

Shameless in Ramallah
In order to obtain a certificate of good conduct from Israel and her guardian-ally, the United States, the Ramallah-based Palestinian Authority (PA) is betraying the very people it claims to represent and its enduring national cause in ways unprecedented in living memory. This scandalous betrayal assumes many forms, including brazen “security coordination” with the occupation [...]
Piss On Bush!
I fell off my chair laughing and could not believe my eyes when I saw this funny picture: Don’t you just feel like doing it…. NOW :) Well, this is not the first time I come across some of this “art”. It actually reminds me of a Belgian one few years ago. This website report [...]
What Starvation?
This is what starvation means (for some) in the Arab world! Now you know why half the world is starving! :-)
Terrorism and Falafel
One of the traits of eating FALAFEL is the possibility of getting blacklisted in America or worse accused of being a terrorist.

Miss Bahrain, Miss Arab World 2007 and Stereotypes

Democracy according to the “behold Bush!”
While watching the news last night, a breaking live broadcast of Bush speech in Prague was on air. I never liked to hear this dump, but for unknown reason I decided to listen to his remarks. While listening to him, I was speaking to myself. This is how it goes (transcript can be found here): [...]
We are all criminals
In the U.S., the issue is framed as “Immigration” The face of the issue is framed as a brown skinned Mexican man. And yet, all you have to do is scrape just a little under the surface to know what immigration really means and who it effects. 750+ Immigrants Detained in “Operation Return To Sender” [...]
Mattressless American Occupation
This ironic one comes from the infamous Fox News: An American occupier in Iraq had a simple request last week for a Wisconsin mattress company: “send some floor mats to help ease the hardship of sleeping on the cold, bug-infested ground.” What he got, instead, was a swift kick from the company’s Web site, which [...]
Microsoft Web 2.0 and Refugees

Saudi court sentences rape VICTIM to 90 lashes

If you look happy you are a terrorist
Few months old story, but ironic: Travellers have been ordered not to look too happy in their passport photographs to avoid confusing facial recognition scanners. Toothy, open mouthed grins are being outlawed from the tiny 35mm by 45mm photographs because they will throw off scanners used at airports. Long fringes and head coverings, are also [...]

If I were an Arab leader!
David Ben-Gurion: His famous quote regarding the Arabs, “If I were an Arab leader, I would never sign an agreement with Israel. It is normal; we have taken their country. It is true God promised it to us, but how could that interest them? Our God is not theirs. There has been Anti – Semitism, [...]

I’ve been running with WP 1.5.1 Alpha (not even beta) for ages now, and I’m tired of hacking the code, although it was fun, but now it seems that the honeymoon is over, and things are getting broken very often.
