5. Once again Saudi utter morons poach a bird with an Israeli wildlife monitoring electronic tag and claim it is evidence of Israel spying on them.

(Hot flash for you Saudi morons. Yes, Israel does spy on you. They do it with electronics and drones like everyone else. They don’t do it by sending random birds and turtles with chips on them and an Israeli flag showing on that bird to boot. That dear Saudi morons, is how you guys deliver the mail. Not how Israelis do surveillance.)

 

Thank you Richard, ML, Softly-Bob, M and all who sent in material. More to come.

  2. Pakistan mob kills one over Koran pages

    A mob killed a man and wounded three others over the alleged desecration of a Koran in the southwestern Pakistani city of Quetta.

    The violence started when some vendors allegedly found torn-out pages of Koran in a pomegranate crate they received in a shipment from neighbouring Iran, witnesses and officials say.

    A mob then formed, shouting slogans against Shi’ites, who form a majority in Iran.

    They destroyed shops, burnt a motorcycle and tried to march towards a Shi’ite neighbourhood in the city but were stopped by police, a senior police official told AFP on condition of anonymity.

    The crowd began shooting indiscriminately in various parts of the city, which resulted in one death and bullet wounds to three others.

    “At least one man was killed and three others were wounded in firing incidents in the city,” provincial home secretary Asad Gilani said.

    Gilani said the unrest in the city was contained after paramilitary troops were deployed in key areas, but he declined to shed light on the allegations of desecration.

    He said that nobody had come to the police to register a case under the country’s strict blasphemy law.

    In June last year a man was killed and 19 others were wounded when a mob attacked a police station demanding a man detained for allegedly desecrating the Koran be handed over.

    Pakistan is majority Sunni Muslim and its tough anti-blasphemy laws make defaming Islam or the Prophet Mohammed, or desecrating the Koran, punishable by death.

    Quetta is the capital of restive Baluchistan province which suffers regular violence from Islamist insurgents, separatist rebels and sectarian militants.

  3. #5. How do arabs make it through the day without killing them self with a pencil or a doorknob?

  4. Santor, they hire Europeans to use the pencils and Asians to open the doors. Though more Asians have charge of the pencils these days, which will probably end in more Europeans on door knob duty. Which seems to be where we’re headed anyhow.
