#1 This is some pretty funny shit...

Where does Younes Mujahid think he is, anyway, America? The Moroccan King giveth, and he can taketh away - any fucking thing he likes, cuz he's the fucking KING. I would suggest that this include Mujahid's wife, family, home, freedom, and his life. Methinks either Mujahid was given a wink and a nod to say this or he's a total fool. The latter makes a lot more sense than the former - as these remarks do not make the King look good in any way you spin 'em. We may not hear much more from Mujahid. Go get 'im, Kingie. (snicker)

#2 â€œAny normalisation has to be linked to a fair settlement of the Palestinian issue,” he said. “This should not be happening while Arab land is being occupied. Israel hasn't given the Palestinians anything up to now — it never makes concessions.”

In 2036 a gaunt dishevled elderly Jew, the last surving member of his religion in the Islamic Pealeostinian Republic sleeps on a park bench in the city formerly known as Tel Aviv. On hearing of this outrage the new Grand Mufti in Jeruselem issues a call for Jihad. Thats what they mean when they talk about "while arab land is being occupied"

#3 In British Medical terms Mujahod is "pumpkin positive." Don't want to speculate on his DBI without a picture.

#4 interesting that the king is doing this now, despite the difficulties with the road map - he could easily have waited a couple of months - is this being used as pressure on arafat and on Egypt? Is he influenced by the Iraq situation? Is the US putting on pressure/bribes to achieve a diplomatic win?

#5 Morroco is probably the only really moderate Arab country around.

#6 Yes, .com. As Mel Brooks said, "It's good to be king." "Most of the political parties have their attention elsewhere." Damn right they do. If MVI decides it, it will be done and no criticism will be tolerated.

LH: Very interesting, indeed. I've got no logical answers to the three questions you pose. The current king's dad had Peres for a visit about 15 years ago. Gaddafi later at an Arab summit refused to shake Hassan's hand as the latter had touched a Zionist, and Moamar didn't want to get infected.

Anyway, I don't know why the King would do this now. He would receive no criticism in the media, but the average Moroccan would not agree. Something's afoot, if AJ is to be believed. What's up?

#7 

The irony of this for Muslims (especially the hardcore religious whacko's) is that the King claims to be a direct descendent of the Prophet Mohammed.
