@adelito

We need to tell the G.O.P. one thing...get down and lie down with Limbaugh...and by the way..

Welcome to the suck.

One thing you can be sure of..

Just as sure as the sun sets in the West

The Israelis will NEVER

Give up their settlement building quest..

@Scorpio69er

That might make an amazing multi-million dollar movie.

I doubt though that you could get the average American away from his or her entertainment center to do any of what you're advocating, much less go see the mega million dollar movie, itself being unbelievably based on events that will NEVER happen, because who the fuck could be bothered with any of that in the first place!

@Backyard Voyager

So what you're saying is that at least half of the American public is half assed...well, they WERE handed Iraq with a cherry on top...you might be seriously on to something there...

@Bellatrix

I'd be happy to "beam you up."

What then?

Would you like me to beam you down to the scarred and smoldering surface of planet Gaza?

Believe me..you may think you get a real raw rub...but you're not the brightest bulb in the box by far...bub.

@omooex

Aren't we, as Ay-rabs, also so-called "Semites," coming as we do, from the same so to speak, linguistic and ethnic extended family?

I'm so sick of this "Semite" shit I could spit!

I've never been to Baghdad, but Cairo is very cosmopolitan in parts, and in others, more country like.

You have sophisticated Cairenes, and Saaidi people.

Many Upper Egyptians (Saaidi) have settled in Cairo, and their ways are more country like.

Oughta just keep his rocket in his pocket before it explodes with too much excitement.

Historically speaking..

In the Mid-East the legitimate standing of Jews and Christians was always ensured as they were by Muslims established as Ahl-al-kitab, meaning "people of the book."

Europe it should be noted is where Jews were chased, killed, and persecuted to the four corners of that entire continent, including Russia.

In all of the Mid-east's history, there has never been a pogrom, a mass murdering of, or calling of Jews in general, something as crazed in concept as "Christ killer."

You would love it. Go to a cafe in Alexandria to get the best fish prepared this way.

Monday, January 26, 2009 09:50 PM

@knickwit

I'll wager you've never even been to the Mid-East...what do you really know about its cultures and its peoples?

Monday, January 26, 2009 09:46 PM

@Scott C

Egyptian food is what I know best. The following are favorites:

Shawarma - roast lamb

Taamiya - similar to what other Arabs call "felafel"

Fool mudamis - Stewed fava beans

Samak bi tahina - Grilled fish with tahina sause

Kufta - ground meat kababs

Tripoli is very modern and urban. But I haven't been there since I was very very small. I've spent much more time in Cairo, where my mother's family is from, and the side of the family I am closest to. My dad and I are are not very good friends. Cairo is crammed with people, is dirty, noisy and smelly, and I fucking love it!

Egypt recognizes Israel..Jordan recognizes Israel..what ARE you on about?

@piehole100

You seem to know some things about the history of fighting, how much do you know about the history of fucking?

Monday, January 26, 2009 08:46 PM

Yeah, I hear ya..

I guess that pearl handled piece ensures permanent fidelity. I wouldn't wanna mess with that. Anyway, a bird in hand is better than one in the bush anyway..right?

Monday, January 26, 2009 08:22 PM

@Derbig

I feel that it is far better to fuck our collective ways into the future than it is to fight...

Could this be a viable campaign for coping with the very many myriad prisms of ISMs?

Monday, January 26, 2009 08:16 PM

Hey,

I once had an Iranian-American girlfriend "noos-al-noos"

And one of pure Persian pedigree too..

You too Mooser! Get busy!

Monday, January 26, 2009 08:06 PM

@Derbig

I can't speak to that. Omooex might have a better handle than I do on that. I've been to Amman, Jordan, and A little port town called Aqaba. The closest I've been to Israel is watching some really lovely Israeli ladies water ski in Eilat, which is across the the bay of Aqaba in Israel. Very fetching females.

Monday, January 26, 2009 07:51 PM

Thanks bud

You're a real mensch?

Did I get that right?

Cheers!

Monday, January 26, 2009 07:43 PM

I personally feel as an Arab of North African extraction..

That if Arabs and Jews fucked each other as much as they fought each other, they wouldn't be able to tell the fucking difference about ANYTHING anymore.

@olive pit

Back to the old Abott and Costello routine ay?

Monday, January 26, 2009 07:35 PM

@Derbig

You gotta enhance my Yiddish vocab..I once had a Jewish girlfriend and I only learned about five words from her.

The pretty standard stuff:

"shtump"

"kevetch"

"shlep"

"mashoogina"

And "speil"

Needless to say, "shtump" was my favorite, and Beth K. was one well endowed shtumper.

And that's the truth Ruth.
