| More from Memri: ABOUT 50 PARENTS IN A GULF COUNTRY HAVE CALLED THEIR NEWBORN CHILDREN ’IRHAB,’ WHICH IS THE ARABIC WORD FOR TERRORISM. THE NAME IS USED BOTH AS MASCULINE AND FEMININE. THE EXCUSE GIVEN FOR THE USE OF THE NAME IS THE INTERPRETATION GIVEN BY OSAMA BIN LADEN ABOUT A VERSE IN THE KORAN: ’AND YOU SHALL TERRORIZE THE ENEMIES OF ALLAH.’ (AL-ZAMAN, IRAQ, 12/10/03) MEETING IN AMMAN, JORDAN, THE ’SYMPOSIUM FOR ARAB THOUGHT’ EXPELLED A KURDISH MEMBER WHO REFERRED TO THE AMERICAN FORCES IN IRAQ AS ’LIBERATION FORCES.’ (AL-SHARQ AL-AWSAT, LONDON, 12/10/03) SADDAM HUSSEIN WILL BUILD A NEW ARMY COMPRISED OF 12,000 SOLDIERS FROM REMNANTS OF HIS PRESIDENTIAL GUARD, THE BA’ATH PARTY, AND SADDAM’S FEDAYEEN. THE ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT THE NEW ARMY WILL BE MADE ON JANUARY 6, WHICH COINCIDES WITH THE 83RD ANNIVERSARY OF THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE IRAQI ARMY. (AL-RA’I AL-AAM, KUWAIT, 12/8/03) As usual, words just fail me..... |

| #2 Failure to learn can be seen as a mental disease.... This might accurately apply to anti-war types and Democrats. |

| #1 Oh, well. Some will come along with us willingly. Some will have to be dragged kicking and screaming. And some will just have to be shot. No biggie. |
