| Singing Saddam and Bin Laden Dolls Seized |
| 2003-11-26 |
| You just know I cannot resist! Israeli customs have seized a shipment of 450 singing, dancing But it’s almost Christmas! What will all those Paleos get under the tree...ah, er, umm,...oops. My bad. The Dancing dolls in Isreal, bologna from Mexico...Cheez. An Israeli Arab ‘businessman’ from the northern village of Qafr Qara admitted under questioning to importing the 400 copies of the al Qaeda leader and 50 of the deposed Iraqi ruler, as a "gimmick" for sale to Jews and Arabs, a customs statement said. 400 vs. 50. It’s all about supply and demand, is it not? "The law doesn’t exactly say that you cannot own a bin Laden doll, but neither he nor Saddam Hussein are exactly good educational role models," Lev-Zerahiya told Reuters. The Power of Reason(TM). |

| #1 I just reviewed the story I posted above. In an ealier version the dingbats at AP had this gem: "While Palestinians have held some demonstrations in support of Osama bin Laden, there have been no mass displays of affection for the accused terror mastermind." If someone demonstrates support by attending a rally, do they really need to own a singing, dancing doll to show "affection" for an individual? The very fact that someone has shown support is guilt enough for me. This wordsmithing by the AP is tragic! |
