Laura Bush to visit Kuwait, UAE, KSA, and Jordan





"WASHINGTON: US first lady Laura Bush will visit Kuwait during a Mideast trip Oct 20-26, her spokeswoman announced yesterday. She also plans to visit the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Jordan to meet with key officials, medical and educational leaders, and leaders of women's groups, press secretary Sally McDonough announced."


Why only the first lady?? The President must be too busy that or too scared to come to this part of the world alive. Fearing he might be brought back only to be buried. Hmm.. and why not visit Bahrain? Are we not good enough? Is it just me or do I sense anger and sarcasm in this post?

Is this what they have lead us to become? Could this attitude we as Arabs have be as a result of their constant attacks and hatred towards us? I'm not one for politics (and I am quite a civil, respecting, law-abiding citizen) but every once and a while, there comes an article or a news report that just gets to you.

What are they trying to do now we often ask? Why can't they just leave us alone. "Live and let live", I say, but I don't think they know how to do that.
