The point is that of all the comments that can be made about this article, such as what was Saddam giving Bin Laden in return for this (WMD, maybe?), and many others, most people, including you, choose to comment on the look of the pearl, which is basically irrelevant.

Well, on the other hand, you did include the two key paragraphs..

I think it's late and people are getting silly.

Hopefully it will stay be up tomorrow morning, when people will be awake and alert and recognize it's importance.

Yeesh, sorry for breathing. I read the article - having read Stephen Hayes' The Connection the article doesn't come as a shock to me. That's probably why I didn't go into detail about it. And the picture of the damn thing just looked freakishly odd.

I'll just exit the thread now.

The new slogan to get diamond sales moving just doesn't sound right...

"Diamonds are a terrorists best friend."

Well, I am not sure it is evidence of an 'al-Qaida link,' but in their culture I am certain it meant they were 'going steady.' ;-)

As a dog owner, I've encountered "Pearls of Allah" frequently on the backyard lawn

Now I have a new name for the clumps in my cat's box

It looks like a giant tumor

Is that really it? That thing is ugly! I guess the Vatican does not have to worry about the Muslim out doing them in the jewel department.

I'd like to see a pic of the oyster shell that had a 14 pound pearl in it.

"I also think it looks like Kerry's left testicle."

now there is an insight I wouldn't want, does Andrew Sullivan know about this?
