Then again, if one was completely ignoring the content and going for what he already thinks he knows, I can see how that could be. You maintain a good blog with honest motives and I think it is a cheap shot for someone to call your identity "fake" - since when is that a judgement another human can make?Hoss a Bosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05780650662201244791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30984739.post-70040185604620279842010-02-18T13:58:23.993+00:002010-02-18T13:58:23.993+00:00Ya Lasto,
I assure you that I have no interest in ...Ya Lasto,<br />I assure you that I have no interest in forming a bridge with West or East! We all have different reasons for keeping these blogs and mine is just a series of comments and observations on things that I see or hear about. That you are factually wrong with saying that I "throw the burden on someone else" would be an understatement. I have no concern with where a burden, if any, does lie. All I can say is that I ask myself different questions.<br /><br />:)Maysaloonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06826378383173206624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30984739.post-58243358232566300962010-02-18T13:51:10.687+00:002010-02-18T13:51:10.687+00:00"My English is slightly better than my Arabic...<i>"My English is slightly better than my Arabic because the schools I was educated in believed that the West is superior to our Arab societies"</i><br /><br />Frankly speaking, I stopped in front of this phrase for sometime ya Maysaloon. I thought you will give stronger reason why you blog in English. Like, you want to form a bridge, or communicate with people from the west or something.. but then I saw the above reason you gave as a way to throw the burden on someone else..<br /><br />Of course you are free to choose the language you like. I personally feel more comfortable expressing myself in English than Arabic sometimes (due to school also). And that's mainly why I started blogging in English, when my Arabic was just as horrible as any KG student.. <br />But no matter what, one should keep trying :-)Lasto adri *Blue*https://www.blogger.com/profile/17620568318348430565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30984739.post-38539267807396092752009-11-13T21:05:12.204+00:002009-11-13T21:05:12.204+00:00que finalement ? http://runfr.com/acheter-cialis ...que finalement ? http://runfr.com/acheter-cialis acheter du cialis [url=http://runfr.com/acheter-cialis]acheter cialis[/url]Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30984739.post-20517309294090231302009-04-14T11:39:00.000+01:002009-04-14T11:39:00.000+01:00ABiT,

As for your co...Hi Yaman,<BR/>Thanks for the compliment. As for your comment, I'm sure that if I was living, working and studying in Israel, I would constantly feel the pressure to add the caveat "apart from the nice people I know" all Israeli society is unjust. We both know where we live, we know what these countries are doing to people in our part of the world, the least we can do is acknowledge the problem. If these subcultures and resistant societies don't agree with what is being done then the onus is on them to effect change, my concern is with occupation.Maysaloonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06826378383173206624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30984739.post-77883198465788087642008-10-26T22:58:00.000+00:002008-10-26T22:58:00.000+00:00I like your new layout... congratulations!!I have ...I like your new layout... congratulations!!<BR/><BR/>I have one issue (I'm sure you're not surprised!). You said, "It is vibrant, diverse and individualist in a true sense, unlike the monotone consumer societies of empire." I am not sure what you mean by this. I think this statement applies equally true for people both in the heart of empire and at its periphery. There are, if you look closely, many such examples of resistant societies and subcultures in the West-- you'll just have to look outside the bourgeoisie, which you'll have to do in the East anyway as well!Yamanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09263643873340973785noreply@blogger.com
