Nobody is as good as the Lebanonese in their submission to Saudi Arabia's royal family. I read that the biggest foreign delegation during the funeral of King Fahd was from Lebanon. And Lebanonese journalists (except the few self-respecting ones like Joseph Samahah, Husam `Itani, Wisam Sa`adah) one by one either on TV or in print outdid one another in their hagiographic tributes to Fahd. It must be the Hummus.
