Africa & Middle East - December 2007

Each one of us has his/her special traits that attracts others to them? What makes you interesting to others?

I think for me, it is that i am a chatterbox, i am well read and can open up many topics for conversation and i love to have a good laugh....

How about you?

I saw this question:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=An4DxYomGUhoViy_cdRZb2D97BR.;_ylv=3?qid=20071202053433AAISCvh
and was SO touched by the welcome you all offered that it made me curious.

Is it possible to be "adopted" by more than one category? I have already been adopted by Lebanon...would I be disloyal if I ALSO wanted to be adopted by Egypt??? :D

Would you rather be called a spinster or a divorcee, or does it really matter to you what people will refer to you as?

if we're ALWAYS talking about "women's" oppression, and their social status, and that male dominant society.......etc,

Haven't you stopped for ONCE and asked about MEN'S OPPERESSION in this "same" society ??!!!!!!!!

let's first admit plz that if the man in the Egyptian society is the domineering in general............but to put in short and in fact, THE WOMAN is the domineering member at HOME !! right ?? ;-) (i don't want to generalize, but really we have the higher authority at home!!! )

Now, let's go to the opposite direction, if the man is acting the role of "sy el sayyed" at home...........then it's the society again that has put him in this FRAME, and sometimes he's obliged to act according to traditions rather than wisdom and even religious teachings !!!!!!

there are more and more examples, want you to discuss it here, and of course wether you agree with me or not !!

** thanks and keen to know your opinions :-)

to death over and over, and have it stuck in your mind even when you are not actually listening to it? Did this happen to you before?

I have been haunted by Bocelli's Pero Te Extrano for the past three days and can't get it out of my mind even in my dreams. It is making me question the remaining bit of my sanity! Is this normal?!! I'm listening to it now at full blast!

Is the world changing so that we do not have defined religion, but more like personal "belief"?

Why do we say to "fight fire with fire", does it mean literal fire or fire as in gunfire? I can understand the latter but not the former! Apart from that is fighting fire with fire the best way? Or is it better to use water.....?

I submit for you today a modest proposal to help solve the Israeli/Palestinian conflict.

For the last 20 years plans advocating “Two states for two people” have gone nowhere. Irregardless of the reasons for why (which I am sure many of you will blame one side or the other) it is doubtful that given another 20 years that this problem will be resolved.

As such I suggest switching two million American Jews with a corresponding number of Palestinians, primarily from the West Bank. While this would end any plans for a Palestinian state such a problem could be ameliorated by renaming either the Gaza strip or Jordan as Palestine.

This would also give a new opportunity to those Palestinians who would now have the freedom to express their unique culture and heritage in the United States as well as the economic opportunities that were before unattainable.
