Few minutes later an interview with the Arab student who had videotaped some of the shooting on his cell phone and another TV anchor asking him: "you were tapping the incident knowing that people were killed inside!" he stopped short of telling the student how come the poor student did not put his cape on and save everyone...Batman!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the way American media portray Arabs, and this is the way Jewish influenced media use the worst incidents to show their old &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;suffering&lt;/span&gt; without the least respect for the loss that American families have suffered at Virginia Tech, make your own conclusions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I cant end without saying that my heart goes to all those parents who lost their children at Virgina Tech...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Khaled&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6758158818584128778-6605925814025949646?l=kuwaitpalms.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kuwaitpalms.blogspot.com/feeds/6605925814025949646/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6758158818584128778&amp;postID=6605925814025949646' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6758158818584128778/posts/default/6605925814025949646'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6758158818584128778/posts/default/6605925814025949646'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kuwaitpalms.blogspot.com/2007/04/holocaust-in-virginia-tech.html' title='Holocaust in Virginia Tech!'/><author><name>Kuwait palms</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6758158818584128778.post-5872174887554018235</id><published>2007-04-14T07:39:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-04-14T07:55:12.492-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Should our students go to the USA!</title><content type='html'>Friends&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I met today Ali, he is a 19 years old Kuwaiti young man. He told me his story, he is trying to join a university in Kuwait. He has been studying in the USA, but because of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;harassment&lt;/span&gt; by University administration in America he decided to return back to Kuwait. As a young man he felt scared way he was treated. He says that every time he attends a class on toxicology, someone from the university would come up to him and gets his details, exactly in the same way every single day, just like we have seen Bill Murray in the movie GROUND HOG DAY!. This type of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;harassment&lt;/span&gt; is not called for and in some situation can result in more &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;animosity&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;hatred&lt;/span&gt;. People in the USA know very well how much money foreign students &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;mainly&lt;/span&gt; from &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;Muslim&lt;/span&gt; countries bring to the American economy. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;Personally&lt;/span&gt;, I &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;don't&lt;/span&gt; think the actions and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;harassment&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;against&lt;/span&gt; our students in the USA is random, it is planned and has clear objectives. May be we should start looking somewhere else for University education...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let me hear your voice&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;Khaled&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6758158818584128778-5872174887554018235?l=kuwaitpalms.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kuwaitpalms.blogspot.com/feeds/5872174887554018235/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6758158818584128778&amp;postID=5872174887554018235' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6758158818584128778/posts/default/5872174887554018235'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6758158818584128778/posts/default/5872174887554018235'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kuwaitpalms.blogspot.com/2007/04/should-our-students-go-to-usa.html' title='Should our students go to the USA!'/><author><name>Kuwait palms</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6758158818584128778.post-4208327477074120684</id><published>2007-04-11T09:09:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-04-11T09:16:48.707-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Black &amp; White</title><content type='html'>Dear friends;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today I had lunch at a new place in Kuwait called Black &amp; whit Diner. It is located inside &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Qurtoba&lt;/span&gt; supermarket. This diner has the 50's decor and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;really&lt;/span&gt; nice atmosphere. The food was of good standard, I liked it better than Johnny Rocket's and the place is less busy. Only problem is that they did not have a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;children's&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;menu&lt;/span&gt;, we had to choose from the main &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;menu&lt;/span&gt; for the kids.  I tried the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;Philly&lt;/span&gt; cheese steak sandwich...it was good...just like what I used to have in the USA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Go visit if you have a chance and let me know what you think&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;Khaled&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6758158818584128778-4208327477074120684?l=kuwaitpalms.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kuwaitpalms.blogspot.com/feeds/4208327477074120684/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6758158818584128778&amp;postID=4208327477074120684' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6758158818584128778/posts/default/4208327477074120684'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6758158818584128778/posts/default/4208327477074120684'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kuwaitpalms.blogspot.com/2007/04/black-white.html' title='Black &amp; White'/><author><name>Kuwait palms</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6758158818584128778.post-3186810393766045200</id><published>2007-04-11T08:52:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-04-11T08:57:12.792-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The inaguration of my blog</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Dear readers;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;I am a Kuwaiti man, and just like so many of us Kuwaiti men who are half to fully educated, like to pass judgement on every thing we see on daily bases. We exhaust ourselves with over thinking in whatever activity around us. This type of reactions always leads to stress and anxiety. I thought if I write about what I see or feel and share it with you guys, I will for sure feel better, and may be you will also feel better knowing that there are others who face the same frustrations you feel day in and day out. I may also talk about some things that make me proud or make me feel happy. You know what? I will also tell you what some of the good things we have to live with in Kuwait...not only the bad stuff. In summary, I will talk about anything I want..any time I feel like writing..because this is my place..please join me and let me read your thoughts&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Khaled&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6758158818584128778-3186810393766045200?l=kuwaitpalms.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kuwaitpalms.blogspot.com/feeds/3186810393766045200/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6758158818584128778&amp;postID=3186810393766045200' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6758158818584128778/posts/default/3186810393766045200'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6758158818584128778/posts/default/3186810393766045200'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kuwaitpalms.blogspot.com/2007/04/inaguration-of-my-blog.html' title='The inaguration of my blog'/><author><name>Kuwait palms</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
