I wish the West would spare us sensitivity to the East

The West is at its worst when it feigns sensitivity to the East: "They are also promoting their book, Bareed Mista3jil, translated as "Mail in a Hurry." It contains 41 true stories of LGBT life in Lebanon, many of them surprisingly hopeful and humorous." First, why not translated Barid Musta`jal as Express Mail. No need for the stupid "Mail in a Hurry." Secondly, why "surpisingly hopeful and humorous"? You thought that people of the region are hopeless and humorless? Go back to sleep, please. Now.
