Non-Politico for a Minute-o

Harry Potter and Co . What shall I do now that I've read the last one? It's good, and I won't give any clues to what happens 'cause I don't want to spoil it for anyone who hasn't read it yet. Go get it and read it , and if you haven't read any of them, I'm totally jealous, because it means you have seven great books yet to read.

It's better to be Bulgarian

A couple of years ago, I predicted a different ending. I told my husband that they would in the end let the Bulgarian nurses go and execute the Palestinian doctor. The outcome was slightly different. They were all let ago, and the reason? The Bulgarians now part of the EU (something they weren't at the beginning of the incident), gave the Palestinian doctor citizenship. He became Bulgarian, and he was released with the nurses.
Here is my question: why did none of the so-called brotherly Arab countries even think of adopting the Palestinian doctor so they could protect him?
Like I said, it's better to be Bulgarian.

Heads of State?

Three heads of state met yesterday, Bashar, Ahmadinijad and Nasrallah . Oh you didn't know Hassoun was a president? Well he's represents the Republic of the South & Dahieh, a well known Iranian Protectorate. Apparently, he's out there with Bashar & Hammoudi deciding the fate of Lebanon by themselves.
Ya farhet alebna.

And in Other News...

According to the Daily Star, NBN has re-instated Sawsan Darwish as anchorwoman at the TV station.
This gives us all an idea of the caliber of humanity that dwells in the bowels of NBN (and Amal) in general, and what they allow themselves to think and get away with.
What hope is there for this country when people like that exist amongst us?

they came, they met, they left...

Apparently, they came tense and left "in a brotherly state", oh great, all our problems have been solved now. Well at least they sat down together without killing each other. The Israelis got more out of this than we did since they now know that their two soldiers are alive. We on the other hand got nothing out of the meeting, because apparently nobody can make a decision without consulting their respective foreign sponsors. Tfoo 3alayhon killhon, malla araf.

In other news, another attack on the UNIFIL, so if anyone still thinks the army shouldn't be fighting the Dementeds in Nahr el Bared, we should send you to Afghanistan to live with the Taleban, their close cousins, maybe then you would change your mind.

What is he doing???

What the fuck is Sarkozy doing? He invites Hizballah for talks one day and then calls them terrorists the next, is he trying to shoot down the talks before they even start? I hope this guy isn't becoming another Tony Blair, the world does not need another American Lapdog.

A calming down of rhetoric on all sides....

...yeh, except for that guy complaining about all of Lebanon being sold to foreigners or some such thing (when are we ever going to get to keeping religious figures completely out of politics? Are we allowed to pray for complete separation of religion and state, or is that an oxymoron?).

Anyway, people are phoning people, other people have agreed to meet other people in France, At least the idiots are all talking. God knows how they thought this was going to be solved while they all sat at home complaining about the "other side". Aoun seems to be getting into gear for his presidential bid, maybe he'll finally get the president thing out of his system.
