Quote:Raymond Ibrahim is a competent, alternative expert, one who operates outside the mass media and records things which political correctness would prevent the media establishment from even seeing it.As an editor, and I was (a local) one for a couple of years, I would say that if I were running an international news venue, devoting scarce air or print space to this kind of story would depend on whether it seems like it's going anywhere. When the Taliban talked about destroying the Bamiyan statues, American papers covered it. And religiously-motivated irrationality is hardly unknown in the West, so I think we can wrap our minds around it. So the key question for me is whether it seems that Egypt as a country would allow anyone to harm the Pyramids.

Far beyond the rising sun
I ride the winds of fate
Prepared to go where my heart belongs,
Back to the past again.

Well, I'm tough, rough, ready and I'm able
To pick myself up from under this table...
