It’s too bad this year it looks like it’s going to be a wet Christmas instead of a white one. But then again, it’s the Middle East. What did you expect? A miracle? Bah humbug. Consider it an opportunity to wear that red and green wool scarf your grandma knitted for you five Christmases ago that you told her you loved, but you didn’t really. Yeah, you know the one.

But seriously, for those in Jordan going to mass, bundle up. And have a merry, merry Christmas!

    hey, you’re famous!
    “Islamism for us is what pan-Arabism was for our parents,” said Naseem Tarawnah, 25, a business writer and blogger, who is not part of the movement.

    I like the disclaimer that you’re “not of the movement” :-)
    what do you categorize yourself? You’re a religious muslim non-islamist. what does that mean?

    muhammad: i don’t like categorizations, people tend to a “better” job of categorizing each other. but to clarify, i consider myself a practicing muslim who does not subscribe to the political ideology of the islamists or brotherhood, and more specifically, someone who doesn’t trust religious-based organizations to begin with. hope that helps.
