"Top blog/Renato Obeid's World/Today's pick: This rambling weblog is worth reading not so much for its satirical posts but more for its insight into the minutiae of life in Lebanon, including the etiquette of road accidents and how to hire a taxi.”

HOLOHOAX In late 2002 in a doctor’s waiting room in Melbourne I overheard the (Jewish) good doctor telling a (presumably Jewish) thirty-something yuppie couple he was seeing out that their son was undersized ‘’because of the holocaust’’. He went on to say ‘’they’re only discovering that now’’. I’m assuming that the kid in question was the grandson of ‘’holocaust’’ survivors. Personally, I want a second opinion… from Doctor Haniyeh (the Hamas leader).
