For some reason I couldn't comment on his blog but if you can figure it out ask him to make a screenshot to prove it.

Also, why would that post originate from mail.aljazeera.net? I wouldn't think they would use their mail server to surf the internet. Maybe their mail server is also a proxy server. Maybe the webserver is behind a NAT. Anybody have any other ideas as I'm still a little skeptical?

I did my own whois and it says the the location is at "Qatar - Ad Dawhah - Doha - Interpacket Group Inc".

Ummm... I'm as big a fan of expletives and innuendo as the next guy, but you might need to XXX out some of this. FR is at least theoretically a family forum....

Pull please, edit out the language, or add a warning in the title.

Because aljazeera, if something is anti-American, is not only willing to print it, but eager to. That's what they do.
I am sure they get tons of such fan mail, only spare us most of it because we can't really appreciate it anyway.

I have always understood that arabic is an eloquent language, even poetic, but never had an inkling that is resembles the output of Democratic Underground so exactly...

Dear admin, Please don't pull this thread.

There are several reasons, not the least of which is the certainty that we will be accused of making it all up.
There is a time and place for everything and this is one of those times.

If there is a way to authenticate it, I would request that we do so, add a warning about graphic pottymouth language, and leave it up.

It is a rare example of what goes on in the islamic world 24/7

Why can't it be both? I assume that the original is in arabic.

In all honesty, this sounds no different than any given thread at DU.

Bahblahbah, you could hit abuse on your article and ask if they could bleep out the baddies.

I bet they'd do it.
