#3 "Where are the womenâs rooms?â and when we pointed at their rooms, they did not enter these rooms even though we have a AK-47 in one of these rooms."

LOL ! I'd gladly take that schmoe's AK-47 and thus lose his (temporary!) gratitude to us for showing good manners. A good trade, in my opinion.

#4 Funny thing - freedom. Too bad the Dems don't understand it. Maybe, because many of em don't actually believe in it (for us small fry anyway).

#5 So much for the idea that Arabs don't "get" democracy, civil rights, etc.

#6 The WaPo is optimistic today and its been optimistic a few other times. In between the optimistic reports are pessimistic reports (yesterday's WaPo report was 'Islamism is baaaack').

The WaPo doesn't seem to realize that the 'feel' of the news is utterly dependant on which team is doing the report.
