A source on politics, war, the Middle East, Arabic poetry, and art.

Look at this article in the Business section of the New York Times about Lebanese-American businessmen (the New York Times thinks that Arab women can't handle business, you know). Notice how it basically featured the fascistic Ziad Abdelnour, and notice that it failed at what it promised "From Lebanese-American Financiers, Differing Views on the Strife." I did not find "differing views" in this piece. And notice that the New York Times assumes that Muslim Lebanese can't add or subtract: "A majority of these financiers seem to hail from Lebanon's many Christian factions." If this is the best American newspaper, please send me your worst newspaper. I want to avidly read it.
