A sure sign that An-Nahar's days are numbered
Of course An-Nahar (the racist, right-wing Christian sectarian, anti-Syrian (people), anti-Palestinian (people), white supremacist newspaper--some Lebanese think they are white) is now considered a joke in Lebanon. The articles of its publisher, Nayla Twayni, provide fodder for humor in drunken parties. As a sign of how this paper is now in its last stretch of life, it has now resorted to providing translation of a long article of Michael Totten. Michael Totten, for potato's sake. "Ibn Rushd" sent me the link with this subject title: "New Talented Progressive Witty Writer at An Nahar." Although I am willing to bet my farm that this one was not done as a favor. You know what I mean?
