Rajan Rishyakaran – Yes, if you try and look the other way from “Minaret Of Freedom” support of Sami Al Arian, and Hamas, and their refusal to accept Jewish self-determination, they have an unusual angle for a Muslim-centric organization.

But then, Mussolini did make the trains run on time and Hitler built some kick-ass highways.

Meryl.

Although Bruce really needs no “vouching”, I can unhesitatingly say that he’s a decent guy. He and I inhabited Wellington’s Temple Sinai for an overlapping period in the nineties.

I hope things work out for you both. Besides, Australia’s not that far away.

(PS. Please excuse the nickname – it was meant to be “Tony”, but I’m not yet a touch-typist.)

BTW, Meryl, wouldn’t it be easier for him to get a Green Card if you marry him first? And if it doesn’t work out, there is always the no-fault divorce…

Lil Mamzer: Other than the foundation’s views on the Middle East (or anything foreign policy for that matter) which is, to say the least, not really grounded in reality, the Minaret of Freedom is actually a quite good libertarian foundation.

Unlike, say, Ayn Rand Institute, they argue their case based on Islam (yet all their articles on foreign policy never quotes any scripture….). If you give the guy any Muslim state, even if he still follows the same quirky foreign policy, it would perhaps be the best Muslim state around. Relatively, of course.

You could always move to Oz. Though Tig will probably need a haircut to cope with the warm weather.

what with international calling rates being what they are today.

Meryl, I am an Australian Christian and am disappointed at your Northern-centrism.
Didn’t God promise to bless all the peoples of the world through the Jews?
Anywhere in the world is only a day away. Think Big, like God and Abraham!
We have four or five of the most livable cities in the world officially, and there’s internet anyway.

The marriage card trumps a green card, doesn’t it?
So book a seat on Qantas and git thee to Oz and bring him back here as your lawfully wedded husband.

OT: If you dig your fingernail into the skin of an etrog, the lemony-detergenty aroma can be quite wonderful.

Completely OT: There is a Palestinian in my neighborhood by the name of Imad Dean Ahmad who runs a strange organization called ‘Minaret Of Freedom’ (talk about oxymorons). I swear I saw none other than spokesliar Saeb Erekat in the passenger’s seat of Dean’s Toyota on Friday in the left lane on Wisconsin Avenue. I figure he was here as part of Mahmoud Abbas’ entourage. ~spit~
