More violence in Alexandria this afternoon. Jar al-Qamar has another post worth translating. I’d like to post it here. I’m getting really depressed. I want to go to Alexandria tomorrow to see for myself.

I’m also way past deadline on an article I promised a friend. I might still go. But she’ll kill me if I do…

In the meantime, thanks to Hossam (who always makes me laugh) for sending me this:

King Abdallah (R): Your goatee is Saudi, your passport is Saudi, and you live in Saudi Arabia. How did you become a Lebanese leader?

Saad ad-Din al-Hariri (L): Why don’t you ask yourself, “Your eyes are blue, your mother’s English, and you don’t know Arabic. How did you become king?”
