Dubai On Monopoly?

21 February 2008

UPDATE: NOMINATE AMMAN & TUNIS!
Only the most nominated cities would make it on the list of the “World Edition”. I already nominated the already listed 3 Arab cities thinking that any new nomination I would make would have no shot at making it on the list since there are only 8 days left for the […]

Donate For Gaza!

07 February 2008

I really hope that every caring person would consider donating any amount they’re planning to spend on any luxury item they wish to buy (no matter how small) for the people of Gaza, for them to get essential items that might save their lives. Gazans who are living under harsh siege conditions, and are not […]

Shame On Us!

04 February 2008

Would someone please explain to me what the hell are we doing? letting people simply die without giving any damn! have we become THAT coldblooded?
To hell with the boring speeches, to hell with the stupid conferences, to hell with the useless summits, to hell with the protests!
Gazans are starving, and what are we doing? nothing […]

Nostalgia

01 February 2008

So it’s been snowing in many Middle Eastern countries in the past couple of weeks. God I miss snow! It’s been around 5 years since I last saw snow in real life.

Bush’s Visit To The Middle East

15 January 2008

Bush’s visit to the Middle East is perfectly showing the world where Bush stands concerning each and every Arab country, and is proving -yet again- how unfair and unjust his statements, decisions, and most importantly his actions have been and continue to be regarding the region.
But still, one way or the other, Bush is made […]

Jordan Remembers…

09 November 2007

[picture edited by Odai Nemri]
2 years since the horrible terrorist attacks on Amman, Jordan. Today is one of those days in which you find yourself speechless. Being away, remembering all those we watched get awfully killed from a distance, I can’t even imagine how others, who are in Amman, and even worse, those, who lost […]

Blog Action Day; In The Arab World…

In our part of the world environment has definitely witnessed a lot of changes, negative ones, due to global warming, WAR, and the annoying ignorance of many Arabs.
One can still see people throwing garbage out their car windows; a study showed that Arabs alone throw away around 25 billion plastic bags on daily basis! one […]

Ramadan always has this special thing about it. Other than the spiritual side of it; witnessing more and more Muslims becoming more aware of their religion, and seeing them actually have fun while […]
