There’s never anything going on in the Middle East. Ask for a more interesting assignment, like the Solomon Islands, or the Turks and Caicos.

Or perhaps Freedonia?

lol Freedonia is a different situation than the Middle East. lol

Oh – too, too funny.

Who knows the words to Hail Freedonia?

Know the tune but not all the words; got to watch the movie again, I guess.

You had better be able to sing Hooray for Captain Spaulding, @janbb.

There is nothing “current” about goings-on in the Middle East. Everything happening there now has been happening for thousands of years.

And probably for a few thousand to come, as well.

@pd Or what?

The poetess who spoke out is a current event in the Middle East.
Her name, Hissa Hilal.

Or I will cease to believe that you worship the sacred Groucho.
