Who, besides Thomas Friedman, could come up with prose like this:

May I suggest a Tahrir Square alternative? Announce that every Friday from today forward will be “Peace Day,” and have thousands of West Bank Palestinians march nonviolently to Jerusalem, carrying two things — an olive branch in one hand and a sign in Hebrew and Arabic in the other. The sign should say: “Two states for two peoples. We, the Palestinian people, offer the Jewish people a two-state solution based on the 1967 borders — with mutually agreed adjustments — including Jerusalem, where the Arabs will control their neighborhoods and the Jews theirs.”

Those signs will be wordier than a Tom Tomorrow cartoon — and in two languages, no less.

Also, this:

I had some time to kill at the Cairo airport the other day so I rummaged through the “Egyptian Treasures” shop. I didn’t care much for the King Tut paper weights and ashtrays but was intrigued by a stuffed camel, which, if you squeezed its hump, emitted a camel honk. When I turned it over to see where it was manufactured, it read: “Made in China.” Now that they have decided to put former President Hosni Mubarak on trial, I hope Egyptians add to his indictment that he presided for 30 years over a country where nearly half the population lives on $2 day and 20 percent are unemployed while it is importing low-wage manufactured goods — a stuffed camel, no less — from China.

Lessons learned from an airport gift shop! At least he’s branching out from cab drivers and hotel desk clerks.

… for the New York Times to publish this article without referencing Breitbart’s long and confirmed history of deception? Is it to avoid the embarassment of acknowledging that the paper’s own gullibility in those instances?

Obama’s war on whistleblowers.

As noted previously, in order to build up an on-site archive, I’m going to start posting the cartoon here on the blog at the end of each week. (All your various TMW options explained here.)
