Africa & Middle East - November 2007

I asked a question earlier about the movie Heya Fawda and what people thought of it. I was shocked by the amount of answers saying that its a dirty movie. The movie was described with strong words like 'mon7al' and 'impolite'.

I personally think that its a movie with a serious message. It's not one of those comedy movies where they discretely joke about sex the whole movie but with not a single kiss!! Why arent people bothered by such movies? I think those movies are far more explicit than heya fawda. Why wont people just ignore the so called 'bad' scenes and focus on the real message behind the movie. It's unfair to judge a whole movie by a few scenes!! Dont be one track minded. I think we should allow ourselves to be more open minded, we should allow ourselves to pick the good things and leave out the negative things without totally bashing the whole movie! Why cant people nowadays take an opinion different to their own? Why not act maturally and appreciate art and give it credit?

extremely deceptive with others, would you wonder how they were with you? Would it nag at you to wonder what they might be doing behind your back? Or would you not think twice and think,"they'll never do that to me"?

May God ease her mother and father and may the sweet angel feel peace. Sometimes I know it hard to understand God reasons for taking such a beauty from humanity but she was too good for this world. I dont understand how another human being can take the life of another. Please all pray to give all families in these times faith.

I am just coming back from Europe where I had to attend a meeting. Many of us are holding diplomat passports and immunity is granted. I was very surprised to hear the following:

My Palestinian colleague, living in Jerusalem, working in Ramallah holding a diplomat passport and having citizenship of an European country is not allowed to enter Israel via Tel Aviv Airport. How is this possible? He got jailed and deported to Jordan from where he is allowed to enter Israel. When I heard this first, I thought he is joking, but............Even his European Embassy was helpless.
Which law does not allow an European Diplomat to enter the Airport of Tel Aviv just because of his Palestinian ancestry?
He also told me that he is not allowed to drive a car with Israeli license plaids. He lives in Israel!

Are Diplomats not granted immunity just because they are Palestinians? The same happened to an Palistinian holding an American Dipolmat passport.

Can somebody please explain?

Others weren't the ones causing problems in your life, it was you all along? Could you face up to it? Or would you deny it and blame others for making you take a searching look at yourself?

I normally delete them immediately, especially those telling me my wishes will come true if I send a specific e-mail to at least seven other people. But still here is one I really would like to share with you:

Dear All

My thanks to all those who have sent me emails this past year........

I must send my thanks to whoever sent me the one about rat **** in the glue on envelopes because I now have to use a wet towel with every envelope that needs sealing.

Also,I now have to scrub the top of every can I open for the same reason.

I no longer have any savings because I gave it to a sick girl (Penny Brown); who is about to die in the hospital for the 1,387,258th time.
I no longer have any money at all, but that will change once I receive the R15,000 that Bill Gates/Microsoft and AOL are sending me for participating in their special e-mail program ....

I´ve been doing a lot of research on travelling to morocco and one possible plan is to fly into fes and leave from marrakesh. The inland, straight line path between the 2 apparently has some really nice sights (in a book "tope 30 places to see in morocco" there are several in between these 2 cities). But the road is throught the mountains. I want to know what the weather would be like in january on the road between these 2 citites, like how elevated? would we be hitting snow,, etc. . .?

Currently the Arab Israeli to Jewish Israeli ratio is about 1:5. Supposing that were to change dramatically due to emigration out of Israel by Jews and/or higher birth rates among the Arabs, how do you think Israel would react? Will Israel ever allow non-Jews to have significant or even dominant political power? How could they prevent this while maintaining the current political system and rights of citizenship for all Israelis?

Think of it. The Romans killed Jesus. And the rulers of Christianity (going according to Catholicism) are the Popes, cardinals, etc, the Vatican, in Italy---> Italian descendants of the people who originally killed Jesus are heading the Church. LOL! How ironic.

Additionally, and unrelated, do you belive that the Vatican secretly has the treasures from the Jewish Temple (the gold Menorah and vessels), or are they gone for all time (melted down 2,000 years ago by the Romans)
