The girl with the blue eyes

I think I may have just met my dream girl...

She's Italian with Egyptian and Lebanese roots, lives in Italy with her family. We met last month here in Egypt and ever since, I've been smitten. She's wonderful. In every way.

She's smart, caring, funny, honest, decent, down to earth, romantic.

And above all, she's just gorgeous (just look at her).

Could it be? Too soon to tell, I guess?

Boycott Israel, boycott Starbucks


Never thought I'd say this but I've decided to boycott Starbucks coffee. Yes, even if it's the best coffee in the world. It wasn't until lately when a friend of mine refused to buy coffee at Starbucks. I mean, come on, I was thrilled it's finally opened here in Egypt.

Read this and this to know what I'm talking about.

Howard Shultz, the chairman of Starbucks is an active zionist.

Starbucks, ladies and gentlemen, supports Israel and Bush's so-called war on terror.

I have a Palestinian friend who now resides in Canada and he used to tell me about his horrible life back in Palestine and what those Israeli scumbags did to him and his family. It's a lot like you see in the news on TV, you know the part when you avert your eyes...

So, I'm asking you (not telling you--feel free to do what you want) to boycott Starbucks. Yes, it's amazing coffee and could be the best (but hey we didn't die before Starbucks showed up here), but unwillingly you're supporting Isreal and the war in Iraq. Think twice before you step inside Starbucks next time and before you take the next sip of coffee.

For some reason, I'm so disgusted now by their coffee. I keep remembering that I should be a good Muslim and support my Arab brothers and sisters.
