Values and Nature

When you think of the word "Palestinian", what comes to mind? (Hint: TERROR!) Seeing how Palestinians invented and perfected modern Islamic terrorism, it takes a lot of hutzpah for the Lebanese government to actually say this:
OnMonday evening, the Lebanese cabinet authorised the army to step up its efforts and "end the terrorist phenomenon that is alien to the values and nature of the Palestinian people".
I only wonder if they said it with a straight face.

Hello, I read your comment on The Blemont Club and thought you might be interested in this article

http://www.jewcy.com/feature/2007-06-06/who_s_afraid_of_paul_berman

Its a reaction to Paul Berman who wrote about Tariq Ramadan.
Please share your thoughts about the article and if you like the jewcy site please create a profile.

yes, It is a jewish online magazine- technically, but like everyone we discuss a little bit about identity and religion but not exclusively. The content in jewcy is mostly informal/intelligent writing- I hope you find. We feature two bloggers every week, so it might give your blog a broader audience too if you join our network.
peace, asis
