Kuwait plans to flex its muscles on web offenders... playground rules...

This is the week of explosions, what is going on? Bangalore, Gaza, Istanbul, Ahmadabad, China, Qantas, Greece, Queens... And weeks and endless weeks for Iraq.

Want to see serious competition for our local brand of ignorance and hatred? Watch this film.

And blowing through our dusty landscape are some cries for justice, that have been long ignored...

Reminders of the human desire for doing the right thing:

Article 23 of the UDHR
Everyone has the right to work, to free choice of employment, to just and favorable conditions of work...
Everyone who works has the right to just and favorable remuneration ensuring for himself and his family an existence worthy of human dignity, and supplemented, if necessary, by other means of social protection.

Article24
Everyone has the right to rest and leisure, including reasonable limitation of working hours and periodic holidays with pay.

I saw clips from "Jesus Camp" and it scared the living daylights out of me... and then I remembered we have the Islamic version here in Kuwait and got even more scared!!

Zaydoun, it is really disturbing on so many levels. Most disturbing is that it made me think that there are people more ignorant than some of our nut-jobs.
