@MouinRabbani Show some compassion: no one blindly hates Muslims anymore and the "anti-Semetic" card doesn't work. All that propaganda down the drain because of auto-translate and tens of thousands of murdered children.

@nntaleb@asadabukhalil@KimGhattas I don't know what she's up to. I thought her first book had some merit. Although in retrospect it belongs to the class of books that cover recent Middle Eastern history without mentioning Israel (Charles Glass's book on Syria comes to mind).
