		<description>Thanks MB.

Israel is been executing the same plan since 1946. After the Jewish "Human Flow" (immigrants) from the German camps, they, the Jews, realized that the Western World will prefer to adopt the Arab approach to what happens in Palestine than the Jewish; not because they love the Arab, but because of the OIL they needed. So the Jews started to terrorize both the English occupations soldier and the Arab at the same time.
That's when the massacres began and that's what's still happening right now. The Jews want all Palestine for themselves and they don't care what everybody else thinks. They don't care about the United Nation's resolutions (101 resolutions against Israel so far). The have the fire power, they have the US' support (which is controlled by the US Jews) and most of all they have the financial support of all the Jews around the World.

Anyway, I'm writing another article about the UN. I'll publish it soon.
Thanks for reading.</description>

		<description>nicely put!

i agree with every word Ronny. it is sad indeed to watch what's happening and especially our so called "arab" leaders whom are just starring not doing anything.

and the worse thing about it is that most of the people are naive. a lot are supporting israel believing that what they're doing is the right act.

check out this video: http://is.gd/eG7F and read some of the people's comments.

israel wants to do whatever it can, using the same excuse of "terrorist attacks" or "war on terror" as bush puts it, to simply eliminate Palestine. more than half of it is already gone and nobody is doing anything.

what a shame...

		<description>I did not discriminate against you because you have poor writing skills. I did what I did because of the content of what you wrote. My first comment clearly points out how the content of what your wrote lacks logic.


PS: I will throw myself in the sea (kibb 7ale bel ba7r) because my friends told me how your logic Khazza2etne. Hence, I will not be available for further comments on this article.</description>

		<description>If it pleases you to discriminate people, then anyone that writes in a language that people understands is Abou Salim and the dikkanjeh to you.

That means that if you don't follow the rules, you're a low class non educated street punk (as this is what represented Abou Salim). That's good...

If being a low class punk enables me to deliver a message better then refined words and structured articles, then it's fine by me.

Maroun Abboud to you is also a street punk, right? Yes he had structure in what he wrote as he had a story to tell and he wrote for days and days and reviewed them for days and days. I'm just commenting on events happening my way. If you don't like my way and your aim from commenting is just discrimination and trying to show the world that you know how to write an article, that's fine. Start a blog and show us your masterpieces. Maybe you have time for it and you'll write one article per year.

When post comments on a blog, your role is either to agree or disagree with the writer about the subject not correct his grammar and composition.

I sure accept any type of comments when it's related to the subject. But when it starts to become a "who's got the better writing skills" competition (which I'll probably lose cause I don't pretend to have writing skills), I won't be replying anymore as this is irrelevant to the subject.

You're welcome to post whatever comments you want and they'll always be displayed. Still, if my way of writing annoys you, you can simply forget about it and don't bother reading in the first place.

One thing to add, if 120 pages take you 12 hours to read, then you're either reading in Egyptians 30 feet scrolls, you're digging in books that you can't understand or you're simply not concentrating enough.
And I'll repeat again and again, I'm not looking to write scientific articles to follow a logic or structure. I'm just listing what runs in my mind and those aren't structured in a database. I just let my fingers roll on the keyboard and write my thoughts related to a certain topic.</description>

		<description>Besides 120 pages! WOW! It used to take me 12 hours during my master. You should have - however - learned these in your math courses being an engineer and all. Don't you have to use logic in your programming?</description>

		<description>So you're saying that you admit that it's the same to read read your blog, watch Abou Salim, and chat with Elias the owner of the dikkene ta7t el beit. Fair enough.</description>

		<description>I'm thankful that you're trying to incite me to ask analytical questions. But you're still missing the point here; I'm not trying to ask analytical questions. There are 100s of people doing that; where are they getting to? 

I am stating the obvious. I'm not trying to be a journalist and write complex scripts that no one understands or want to read. I'm writing my opinion in simple words and sentences the way a normal person, and i repeat a non-journalist, would write.
I don't need arguments to defend my point of view as it is my own. I can be scientific and write articles based on proof and references (as I'm a scientist being a computer engineer) but I don't want to do that.

Daily Star is a newspaper known to most Lebanese. How many actually read it? I want to approach people the way I approach them on the street, the way we debate with neighbors. I'm not looking to impress them more than attract their attention and make them think about it.
If it's the fancy words and constructive arguments I'm looking for, I would've studied journalism. I'm trying to be as simple as I am and write in simple words and a lot of sarcasm.

By the way, I read an average of 120 pages a day (newspapers, scientific articles, books, etc.).</description>

		<description>"I thought you got the article when said “Blame them”: Implicit Ad Hominem.

"I’m not the one whining and I’m not here to offer solutions (As if I matter…). I’m not here to write scientific articles and surely am not debating about anything.": Running away from your burden-of-proof.

"I’m writing about all the Lebanese who whine for 4 years and every election go and elect the same miserable people they did 4 years ago.": Confusing cause and effect. 

"The solution is inside the sarcasm and too obvious: Elect better new people." Appeal to ignorance + confusing cause and effect + oversimplification + hasty generalization. 

"At least I’m writing, what are you doing?" burden of proof + ad hominem or perhaps ad hominem tu quoque. 

Besides, which laws? Why should we apply these laws? Why not question the laws while applying them? What does the law have to do with electing people you consider corrupt? Therefore, the law is not the "simple" solution you provided. Actually, you provided two "simple" solution, each time claiming each one of them as THE simple solution. 

Who said it's about grades or needing grades to say your opinion? It's not about grades. It's about being able to construct useful dialog. I'm just trying to incite you to ask analytical questions instead of just stating the obvious. It will make your writing better for readers and much more fruitful. 

By the way, I'm writing. This is my job.</description>

		<description>@Hera:
I thought you got the article when said "Blame them". I'm not the one whining and I'm not here to offer solutions (As if I matter...). I'm not here to write scientific articles and surely am not debating about anything.

I'm writing about all the Lebanese who whine for 4 years and every election go and elect the same miserable people they did 4 years ago. The solution is inside the sarcasm and too obvious: Elect better new people.

The solution in Lebanon is really simple, we all know about it but refuse to admit it cause it contradicts with our benefits: APPLY the LAWS.

In the end, I don't need argumentation principles to give my opinion as it's just my opinion and reflects no one's. It's a free country as they say... or maybe not? I can express myself the way I want: I don't need grades to show how argumentative I can be. 
Ana akid erfein bas ana mish a7san min 7ada (w leh fi msalleh ta7et bato bten3aro :D). It's my opinion, your role is to comment and I've allowed you to because I believe that there's always another opinion and another story. At least I'm writing, what are you doing?</description>
