The beginning of the 'Shoe Intifadha'

Applause to Iraqi journalist Muntadhar Al Zaidi for setting the trend of 'Shoe Intifadha' (resistance by hurling shoes to the tyrant). Next in line after the former President George Bush, was the Chinese Premier Wen Jibao who became a prey of a hurling shoe, yesterday.

Guessing who's next?

Heights of Egypt's double standards

The impeccable (flawless) saying of Hazrat Ali (AS), 'They are united in falsehood and you are divided in truth' demanded a contemplation when I read this news piece:

'During the Gaza war, Egypt sealed the Rafah crossing and let its 'neighboring' Gazans to suffer WHILE an Egyptian company very generously supplied the Israeli troops with foods labelled "Latha" which means "Delicious" through the Owja crossing.'

I wonder, how stale can a country rot with its double standards?
