Can barf alerts be applied to individual messages like this one? The dry heaves are upon me.
Great exerpts from the article:
And you're grabbing my hand? You mother -- theo-fascist pig!" Though I didn't speak these words aloud, I certainly meant them. (The irony of being accosted for having a camera was not lost on me.)
Is there hope for you yet Sean?
We struggled briefly over the camera. I didn't know what the limits were exactly. I struggled with my left hand to retrieve my journalist's credential from my pocket. This guy didn't know who he was f -- with. And it is my belief that to this day, he still doesn't care.
You mean the mullah's hired muscle don't care about your feelings? I'm shocked, I tell you, shocked. And you are correct, he didn't know that he was dealing with a load-mouthed pampered hollywood wussy-boy until your interpreter told him so.
the police began to arrest journalists. By day's end, approximately 30 journalists were jailed. I ran into one well-known, and I will confess, left-leaning Western journalist who suggested I make an effort to get arrested, that it would "make a great story." So that's the way they play it, huh?
I'm surprised the SF Chronicle allowed this in. Most everyone on Free Republic knows that the MSM creates news, but not Sean Penn, he still believes they report news. So Sean's a coolaide drinking true-believer, who'd a thunk it?
what do you mean by THEY?
Good Lord. *rolling eyes*
Thanks for the info. And thanks for reminding me about the Arabic culture all around me. That's where I think I'll connect first. I always do a lot of research before entering a third world country. And I always have a host in the country I'm traveling to. I'm adventurous, not crazy :).
Isn't it great to learn about other cultures, first hand?
The dynamics in that part of the world are fluid. It all depends on which direction Iran is willing to go.
Disagree. Iran and Syria can learn a lesson from what happend in Iraq with Saddam toppled into jail, and 25 million Iraqis were freed from Saddam's oppressive reign of terror.
We should have helped the Iranian freedom movement somehow in the first place!
The Iranians should help themselves. Unlike Iraq, the Iranians are not afraid to speak out against their leadership, and the Iranian leadership is vastly outnumbered by Iranians seeking freedom from oppressive rule. The Iraqis were and still are afraid to "go it alone", this is why it's dangerous to suggest that we prematurely pull our troops out of Iraq, otherwise there will be an internal uprising within Iraq and Iraq would become a radical Muslim state, harboring the most dangerous element of terrorists.
David Hunt says to knock out the Iranian Troops helping the terrorist along the northern border of Iraq...
he says fire all the 4 stars in command in Iraq...bring in a real killer referring to 4-star Shoomaker (since he was delta commander)...says he'll stop allowing our troops from being killed...
says pentagon needs to call countries telling them if we find one more of your citizens/subjects fighting in Iraq...we'll start taking your buildings out with missles one by one...
says CIA is rotating their folks 90 days this must stop...our troops are there 12-15 months...CIA can not rotate their troops.
