This is what is amazing about Jubran Tuwayni. He had been writing since the 1970s, and yet there is not a single memorable sentence by him; not a single memorable idea; not a single memorable saying, not a single memorable article. They have been running clips of his interviews. And it is striking that he never once said anything that is not yelling and shouting and crude sloganeering. Not once. But then again: for the sectarian right-wing masses, he was a hit. For that very reason. Who wants to think after all?
