You can always tell when arabs are against the ropes; they resort to hyperbole.

OK, so when DON'T they resort to hyperbole? I haven't seen or heard of it yet.

Perhaps this is just a language barrier issue. After all, "Israel 'Opened the Gates of Hell' " might just be Arabic for, "Oh, geez, we are well and truly phocked now."

It’s a language in which flowery hyperbole is commonplace, especially for orators.

Well, that’s because they get their ass kicked all the time.

When they talk about the abuses of muslims against other people, however, it’s so nuanced and soft you would think they were Japanese Geisha.
