Love on the other blog.

I feel silly repeating it. But do check the other blogs. I hate advertising myself.

I am finally getting acquainted with this blogging business- the technical side at least- and you can actually click under "my other blogs" and view the latest.

Please do that, as I hate posting/informing you about each new entry. I guess am a prude after all. Who would have thought eh ?

dear layla

have been seeing and reading your blogs regularly and hence no need to update us regularly about new posts.

i have put up the malayalam translation of my post about you in the below mentioned link too, as i feel that more people from our country should know and read about your blogs. and many already had already visited and read and were upset at your point-blank writing.

all the best

regards

From your other blog:

= = = =
I just read this and having experienced it "All Iraqis will go to heaven, because we've all been to Hell." - I know there is never a good time to give up.
= = = = =

I read that on your other blog and it scared me, and made me sad that Iranians, Israelis and Americans do not understand it. They belived their forked tongued Mullahs, Imams, Priests and Rabbis who tought them that the Iraqi lives were not as valuable as "theirs".

God said otherwise, so all of them, along with their evil little "holy" men will go to hell while the million Iraqis they killed look on from heaven.

"Thu Shall Not Kill" - the more weapons they have the less they listen - good thing Hell is a very big place.

Peace

snoozer,

That sentence made me chuckle...
"Good thing hell is a very big place", let's just hope they move in AFTER we have moved out of it.

Very well written...full of the fragrance of eastern femininity. Flowers of the west don't conceal such fragrance.

Why ?

Yes why? What for? What does it say about you? What does it say about your countries? What does it say about your institutions? What does it say about your governments, your "culture", your "civilization", your history, your "progress", your "values", your concepts...? Have you ever stopped and pondered these questions? Have you ever stopped and asked yourselves ; how come? How come we are so advanced, how come we are so democratic, how come we are so great, how come we are so free...And how come we allow so much murder, oppression, abuse, go unaccounted for ? Have you ever asked yourself this question ? I was just listening to the BBC World radio. A report from Oxfam - and in your eyes that makes it credible - over 70 % of us Iraqis, no longer have access to clean drinking water. I say no longer have because I remember not so long ago, one could turn on the tap and drink. As simple as that. The report goes on to say that over 50% of Iraqis are u...

Endless Beginnings...

Image
For God's sake, tell me where to begin? I was set out to write about Father's day and the thousands of fatherless Iraqi children.The thousands of killed fathers, the thousands of fathers trying desperately hard to feed their families, daily putting their lives at great risk, in a country gripped by demonic violence. The exiled fathers, selling scraps in Amman and Damascus, bearing the brunt of daily insults. Or the unemployed fathers, feeling torn inside watching their kids go hungry. Or maybe the head bent down father, slouched posture, hiding scars beneath a worn out shirt. The father that has been imprisoned, humiliated, tortured and sodomized, unable to look his children in the eyes... Or maybe I should write about sexual torture and sodomy instead... The further horrors emerging from Abu Ghraib and the Taguba report... More reports of "abuse". And I am sure Abu Ghraib is not over. I am certain that more Abu Ghraibs are taking place in Iraq, in those shadowy deten...

Not so Kind...

Image
I am very pissed. I do not have many kind words towards my fellow Iraqis. Let me qualify here, before you start jumping to conclusions. I have no kind words towards that category of Iraqis who gave it away for Free to the Americans and the Iranians. I have absolutely no respect for them, no consideration and zero sympathy. I have zero respect for those bastards living and working in the Green zone. I have total disdain for those who voted and now come meagerly complain about "lack of the promised democracy"..."but we voted" broken record. Sure you voted. You voted for your sects and your wallets. I have absolutely no sympathy for those who applauded and filled their blogs with hurrays "Saddam is gone" and now cry over poor Iraq...and congratulate themselves with cheap words of sympathy coming from the occupier. It took a bunch of your kind to make it happen. Now you have lost it all. I do not want to be too cruel and say you deserve what you are getting be...
