We wont publish cartoons that offend Christians.

We wont publish cartoons that offend Jews.

But Muslims are a different matter.

The west not christians like the crusaders not the christians are against islam and Muslems and Arabs not against Muslem terrorist and Islamist Ben Laden said that ,the west tried to show otherwise untill the Danish newspaper exposed them for what they realy are racists,let see now if the muslems will unite or their leaders under the infliance of the west will give up and supress them as usual.

Syrian Rebels Become More Lethal

As Syria’s rebel militias become more lethal, foreign analysts are trying to determine how Islamic they are, how to unify them, and what role the West can play in guiding Syria toward an outcome favorable to its interests. The Syrian government is exploiting Western concerns that the Syrian militias could turn out to be harmful […]

Main Pillars of the Syrian Regime Collapsing

The main pillars of the Syrian regime are collapsing one after the other. The closing of the University of Aleppo signifies the beginning of the end for public education.

Taliban Poetry

A shaved version of this review appeared in the Guardian. In the 1980s an artist friend of mine made a poster for Gulbuddin Hekmatyar’s Hizb-e-Islami, a militia later allied with the Taliban. The poster depicted a fully-bearded Afghan mujahid clutching Quran and Kalashnikov and standing atop a slaughtered Russian bear. It was sent as a […]

Ramadan’s Arab Awakening

A mangled version of this review appeared in the Independent. What is happening in the Middle East?

So far, Tunisia is the only clear democratising succe […]

It’s a time for gathering evidence – although no more evidence is needed. It’s a time for reporters to write, for committed foreign journalists […]

Satire & the Syrian Revolution

As it so happens, there are other things one can do with a camera phone during a revolution besides filming gun battles. I recently arrived late to a very good party, the party of Jiim Siin’s brilliant and wickedly satirical monologues about the Syrian uprising. Recorded on an iPhone by an anonymous Syrian fellow living […]
