    سميتك الجنوب

    يا لابسا عباءة الحسين

    وشمس كربلاء

    يا شجر الورد الذي يحترف الفداء

    يا ثورة الأرض التقت بثورة السماء

    يا جسدا يطلع من ترابه

    قمح وأنبياء

    —نزار قباني

    I am told that op-ed writers will contribute their honoraria to the same fund. Another good reason to subscribe?

    Already did, check to be handed in on Sunday and my first sub issue should come to my door every morning thereafter.. maybe cancelling Al-Wasat in the process!

    Forgot the wahabees!

    جاء في فتوى أصدرها الشيخ السعودي عبد الله بن جبرين أنه “لا يجوز نصرة هذا الحزب الرافضي (في إشارة إلى حزب الله) ولا يجوز الانضواء تحت إمرتهم ولا يجوز الدعاء لهم بالنصر والتمكين، ونصيحتنا لأهل السنة أن يتبرؤوا منهم وأن يخذلوا من ينضموا إليهم وأن يبينوا عداوتهم للإسلام والمسلمين وضررهم قديماً وحديثاً على أهل السنة، فإن الرافضة دائماً يضمرون العداء لأهل السنة ويحاولون بقدر الاستطاعة إظهار عيوب أهل السنة والطعن فيهم والمكر بهم، وإذا كان كذلك فإن كل من والاهم دخل في حكمهم لقول الله تعالى {وَمَنْ يَتَوَلَّهُمْ مِنْكُمْ فَإنَّهُ مِنْهُم}”.

    That’s all they’re good for.. “we’ve got the exclusive rite to Islam and Heaven.” And at a time like this?

    Fine, you can have your version of both and stuff it up your ass for all I care bin Jibreen.

    Typical, riding on the coat-tails as now their star is waning. Is this Al-Qaeda’s swan song? Now that people have found others who they seem to have adopted as the “real” leaders and fighters for Arab/Muslim honour, something that could never have been attributed to bin Laden & Co.?

    exclusive rite

    Should be “exclusive right”

    Nope, and (as a punctuation Nazi, you forgot the ending semi-colon, silly boy!)

    n 1: an established ceremony prescribed by a religion; “the rite of baptism” [syn: religious rite]
    2: any customary observance or practice [syn: ritual]

    A thought: war on Lebanon, international campaign, outrage, and help flying in from everywhere.

    What about Palestine?

    What about Iraq?

    This is a stupid and ugly war (all of them are!)! Why is Israel killing hundred’s of inocent people in the capital of Lebanon or Tiro, when the terrorists are in the border? Leave the children’s alone!!! Army against army, not army against civilians! A war is between armys!
