		<description>So, is believing in a god that important?
رب الرمال، صلعم، القرأن........بلا بلا بلا  كلها خرابيط.

The Middle East is a land of opportunities?
Maybe,if you are  Westerner but if you&#039;re a citizen (I&#039;m Kuwaiti believe it or not) then you should eat dirt and die. 
No freedom of thought (they feed us the same doctrine from cradle to grave, no chance for independent thought and inquiry), no freedom of speech, no actual appreciation for people with solid qualifications. Just because you happen to be one of the lucky ones doesn&#039;t mean everyone else is. 

Honestly, everytime I&#039;m back for the summer from the UK I become incredibly uncomfortable with the society here. Conservative and idiotic to say the least, completely dumbfounded to say the most.

Attaining fluency in English does not mean that said person has independent thought and lastly I conclude with...

Wake up! They&#039;re lying to you.</description>

		<description>I posted my take the week it came out: http://loft965.com/2009/04/13/jad-choueiri-thinks-arabs-are-funky/

There you go again with your bigotry. I don&#039;t have an issue with you but I have to say that you have offended me. Amanda Lepore is definitely not sexually confused. Just because you don&#039;t understand it doesn&#039;t mean it&#039;s confusion.

Why do you think that you should dictate what should be done publically and what shouldn&#039;t?  Why does everyone fit your standards of &quot;disgusting?&quot; I find Lepore beautiful. I feel like everyone should wear or dress the way they want to. 

I don&#039;t want to ambush you personal beliefs. But, some might might say that a certain way dress in culture are discriminatory against women. But, if you are truly liberal you believe everyone should make their own choice. Imagine if someone labelled you &quot;disgusting&quot; because of your chosen appearance. Do these people not have loved ones, have family and have a life? And you lay these harsh words with ease like you are superior for you beliefs.

الساكت عن الحق شيطان أخرس ... what rights are you talking about. The right for people to live as they wish or the right for you to have the world your way, even if it means oppressing people?</description>

		<description>When I rant, I am giving my opinion and yes the other side is entitled for a chance to rant back however, there&#039;s a more decent and civil way of doing that. I do have friends who are &quot;sexually confused and to some degree I accept it as long as it doesn&#039;t effect my life and of course I&#039;d give them that in return but when you want to go all public and do it in an offensive disgusting manner la2! This is where it stops and I do believe in the saying: الساكت عن الحق شيطان أخرس

I know I am not entitled to change or fix the world but if you want to apply the &quot;eye for an eye&quot; thing fa I believe they started but I am a just a lady who blabbers alot :) so they should take it easy!

and I am intrigued to know your take on Jad&#039;s video and the whole &quot;oh we Arabs are so outgoing and free&quot; thing he&#039;s got going on.. if you don&#039;t mind :)

annnnd welcome here !</description>

		<description>Chikapappi, Although I do not agree what what that person posted, I feel like you had it coming. You are angered that someone would post such a comment about your faith and your lifestyle, but isn&#039;t that what you did in the first place?  

You went on a prejudiced tirade about Amanda Lepore and her lifestyle. I happen to be a Kuwaiti fan of Amanda&#039;s and have met her. Doesn&#039;t she have a choice when it comes to her life, her image, her gender and all other attributes. Why is it OK to judge another person&#039;s lifestyle or orientation and not be judged about the choices you have made?

In both posts you have been very bigoted towards transgender people, transsexuals, transvestites, non-believers, atheists, agnostics and even women who are sexual. Is that not prejudice? Why should you be able to rant about people and not be ranted on? 

I don&#039;t agree with his comment. But, if you don&#039;t want to discriminated against, then do not discriminate against people, especially when you know nothing about them. Humans are complex beings, they can&#039;t be pigeonholed into acceptable social norms for your liking. They can&#039;t be merely &quot;sluts&quot; because they are dancing in a video and it shouldn&#039;t be insulting to say &quot;I bet you don’t even believe in A God !&quot; because some people came to an understanding in their life that suits them and that is good enough for them.

If you are a believer of peace and liberty then you live and let live. If you will judge people, you will be judged. And that&#039;s what happened.</description>
