I have the Google Translate plug-in. I can highlight a phrase in any language (that I have tried so far) and get a half-way decent translation by selecting the translator when I right-click on the phrase. It works on Arabic just fine, I've used it in Tweetdeck to read some of Sandmonkey's stuff.

I can handle the truth, but I can't always handle following the news in real time. {{{Marjorie}}}

Cool. I'll check out the plug-in.

Whoa. You said a mouthful there. Quite frankly, I was shocked about the hashtag. I send a few myself and they're usually feel-good posts about life and culture. I guess that's what I expected to see when I searched on the Tag. I got a horrifying awakening.

A few of the Egyptians were thrilled about the uprising in Syria. They want Assad ousted so they can join with the Syrians and attack Israel. Is this what is planned? The article I posted about in the Sinai indicates that ever since it went back under Egyptian control in 1979, Mubarak has had a terrible time controlling the terrorism there, but have managed it somewhat. However, since he's gone, Israel has warned its citizens to stay clear of the area for fear of attacks and kidnapping.

Anyway, I say my prayers.

The Arabs living in Gaza and Jerusalem don't want peace. They don't want to talk.

From the time one of these Arab children takes his first breath, they are schooled in the art of killing Jews.

I can't help but ask, how do you feel about Arabs in general?

There is no "in general". I don't generalize. I'm being quite specific.
