#1 A truthful headline would read something like 'Arabs once again exhibit irrational duplicity'.

Excepting the alleged rape, I see nothing that would justify more than a mild reprimand or punishment. Yet the media is whipping up a storm. This story deserves 2 column inches on page 17. If there is any story here it is, why is the media whipping up a storm and why are the Arabs so completely irrational.

#2 My Arab brothers, we have remained silent for far too long. Not one voice was raised when Saddam slaughtered and tortured countless thousands upon thousands. No one has yet to identify Iran's disappearing political prisoners or their fate. Nobody can provide reliable numbers concerning the number of fighting age men among Iraqi casualties.

Here we finally have our chance. A few of our brave freedom fighters have been taunted mercilessly. Now is our chance to demand blood for all of the murder and rape that has occured in the Middle East at the hands of other Arabs ...

Wait, Abdul! This is supposed to be about the Americans.

The Americans? You mean the ones who got rid of Saddam? Oh, yes. Can't we just blame it on the Jews somehow?

"My Arab brothers"....sheesh.)

#6 I wonder how much 'anger' was displayed when the savage human bombs blow themselves to Hell taking scores of innocent victim's lives in Iraq, Israel, and around the globe. Where is the public outcry?
