Rants/Raves:

Saudi Arabia: Land of Justice and Godliness

Isn't Saudi Arabia a lovely country? A 19-year-old woman there has just been sentenced to prison for being gang-raped. Oh, and she's getting 200 lashes too.

The Asinine Situation Rant (Ten Thousand Palestinians Rotting Away In Israeli Jails)

The Destruction of Lebanon Rant (Israel and The Art of Collective Punishment)

Well over 100 civilians killed in Lebanon and the headline on all the mainstream news websites is "8 Israelis killed in Haifa". 15 Lebanese children killed in one strike alone and Bush just keeps going on about Israel's right to defend itself from "terror".
