Joumana Haddad
Zahi Wahbi tells Joumana Haddad that I will be mad at her because she used the label "Angry Arab" in her last book which appeared in English. I say: 1) If I am mad at her, it will be for other reasons that fabrications, exaggerations, and lies. I am more upset with her telling ill-informed Western reporters that there is a whole Islamist campaign against her sleazy magazine, Jasad, when there is no noise about it whatever and it sells well in Gulf countries where pornography is officially banned. 2) If Joumana Haddad is Angry Arab, please count me as docile and content Arab from now on. (Watch the clip at 2:50). (thanks Nadine)
