Michael Moore’s Sicko

The much anticipated Michael Moore movie Sicko is out. There isn’t much mention or praise of it in the rightosphere as there is in the leftosphere. I’ve only watched the preview and I can already predict that it will be a very interesting movie. I guess it’s going to reinforce the horrible stories told to […]

Big Pharaoh Is BACK!

Yaaaaaaaaaay! I just discovered his return today. I have to say that I’m pretty damn happy to see him back blogging again. BP you were dearly missed! For those of you who don’t know, reading Big Pharaoh’s blog was the main reason I started blogging. He also gave me my first link and was very […]

Defeating the Victimhood Mentality: Climbing Out of the Hole We Dug For Ourselves

Victimhood, Personal-Success Literature, & the Social Construction of Reality

My intention with this series of posts isn’t to answer questions or provide solutions. I’m simply pondering and thinking aloud in the hope of getting you to think along.
Growing up, I’ve had too many mostly seemingly unrelated interests and lacked a focus on one particular topic. […]

Sudan: Kajbar Massacre

Indeed, if this happens not so far away from Khartoum, imagine what happens in Darfur! Many Sudanese people are extremely furious over this. As for me, my blood is boiling right now.
On June 13, 2007 we received disturbing news from Kajbar area in Northern Sudan informing that the security forces have used excessive force to […]

Bill Gates’ Recent Speech At Harvard: “The barrier to change is not too little caring; it is too much complexity”

I could quote a few sentences and even provide an excerpt but I think I would be committing a great injustice. I don’t know about you but this has got to be one of the best damn speeches I’ve read in a while. Bill Gates, RESPECT man! Keep preaching!

Ahmed Elmustafa & Sabah - Ra7mak Ya Malak

I discovered this on Ayman’s blog. It’s a Sudanese song by the late Sudanese singer Ahmed Al-Mustafa singing with Sabah, the queen of Lebanese music. I found it too damn funny! Ayman is right, the dance choreography is plain silly. And check out Al-Mustafa’s face too, then compare it to his hand. That’s some heavy […]

So What’s Next For Palestine?

Let me summarize and keep it as short as possible. It’s obvious the United States and Israel want to suffocate and isolate Hamas militarily, economically and diplomatically within the Gaza. At the same time, they want to support Abbas and the emergency government.
The Palestinians have gone for months without needed aid. Any Muslim who fasts […]

Africa’s Beauty: Lovely Pictures of South Sudan & Tanzania.

Black Kush posted some really wonderful pictures of wildlife returning to South Sudan after 2 decades of bloody civil war. Path2Hope also has some pretty pictures of Tanzania. Makes me wana go there!

Sudan Is NOT the Number One Failed State in the World

I totally agree with Black Kush. This report which lists Sudan as the number one failed state in the world is garbage:
I find the recently published Failed States Index 2007 utterly unbelievable and rubbish. It is one of these publications that doesn’t hold water. I have a lot of grievances with my country, but I […]
