The problem with Syrian men…

Sat, 11 Mar 2006 12:11:37 +0200

This is a rant. Beware, this is a rant! If somewhat tempered…

Ok, so I’ve warned you. But in reality I’ve been meaning to write this for a long time now, pretty much since Sept last year. Please note though that I’m only really talking about the capital Damascus. I suspect, although don’t know, it’s worse in certain areas of Syria. That was certainly the case in Aleppo anyway, where, surprisingly, men are even more desperate there.

Where's Aysar? - If you're reading this my lovely Yasser Arafat lookalike - get in touch with me!

Now apart from that several things are going on in this world.

At first it's hilarious... then it's just wrong

Beautiful, absolutely beautiful.

Let me just explain the significance of this game my children.

Sharia law in Britain? Hell no!

Mon, 20 Feb 2006 12:06:31 +0200

I might not be a scholar on this issue on indeed know very much but 40% of UK Muslims wanting Sharia law to be applied to certain communities? Hell no! From what I know about this ghastly set of rules is that subjugation and sexism are widespread, not to mention what seems to me as medieval punishments too.

Of course, as ever, i'm open to be convinced otherwise, so do use that comment section to tell me what i'm missing!

In the mean time, I leave you with an interesting article...

Sharia law? Don't even think about it

Forty percent of British Muslims are in favour of applyinhttp://www.guardian.co.uk/Columnists/Column/0,,1713628,00.htmlg sharia law in "predominantly Muslim" areas of the country, according to an ICM poll in yesterday's Sunday Telegraph. If taken at face value, this is a worrying figure. I do not believe that it should be taken too seriously at this stage, but it is a warning that should not be ignored.

This government has shown itself to be somewhat over-receptive to calls from ethnic and religious minorities to take their customs, traditions and sensitivities into account over a range of activities....... (continued)

So come and see me then...

أفكار عن رسم النبي محمد بطريقة مسيئة

Tue, 7 Feb 2006 13:05:02 +0200

بصراحة لم أجد آراءً معتدلةً حتى الآن وهذة قد يكون لأن هذه القضية تتعلّق بموضوع مقدّس. و يجب على الأوروبيين الّذين يسمّون أنفسهم باللبرالية أن يعترفوا بعدم مناسبة الرسم الّذي أظهر النبي يلبس عمامة و فيها قنبلة و الّذي اشتهر خلال الأسبوع الماضي.

Ooops, trouble in Syria

Sat, 4 Feb 2006 23:44:11 +0200

Ok, so today the Danish and Norwegian embassies were burnt down in succession in central Damascus by an angry Islamic mob around midday today.

Possibly taking the Islamic dress code a bit too far...

Any ideas what these do?!

Not your average haircut... In Oman
