HI,

I think that Suheir Hammad's diatribe is way off base.I notice he does not refer to the drenching blood-bath now going on daily in Syria where only Arabs are involved! His screeching reflects an Arab and Palestinian tendency to deny and distort reality. But not all Arabs are so myopic. I recommend to those who wish to read a more rational,sensible and honest perspective on the Middle East to tune to 'Arab News' and read the columns of Abdulateef Mulhim.
