#3 My first reaction was Great! It can't but help! Then I realized what they will be reading: Jews are to blame for everything, America is the great Satan, no open practice of Christianity will be allowed, Islam is the only real religion...

We now return to our regularly scheduled programming.

#4 But Jules, they hear it at the mosque, its omnipresent on the television with the addition of The Palestine Show and Who's for Jihad!, so what difference will it make? Perhaps a few will get on the web and discover Rantburg, et al.

#5 Why do I suspect that their idea of "eradicating illiteracy" is eradicating the illiterate?

#6 I hope so, TW. Wouldn't that be something? I try to imagine a day when the women in that part of the world wake up and get really PI*SED off. It's quite a picture-a woman stripping off her abbaya at her own PC, writing blog comments in SUPPORT of democracy and freedom. Sigh-I wonder if I'll live long enough to see it.

#7 Not this generation of women, Jules, probably. Look to their daughters, who'll take literacy for granted, and can't stand to see all their hard work wasted.
