Hey.. You gotta work with it. I have been reading those babelfish translations all day yesterday and today. You get good at deciphering them. You wan't breaking news or do you want to wait 8 hours for it to be on CNN? ;-)

[antidisestablishment]

So bad, the translation is not, young jedi.

[eastsider]

And the award for worst translation goes to ... Babelfish!

[AgentEcho]

Agreed. I'm almost to the point where I can speak Babelfish.

Talk about your bad translations!?!?!?!
my thoughts

[Mr. Mojo]

According to him, the explosions were such strong that their echo was given a ride on entire block.

When I read this, I couldn't help but hear it in my head with a bad Russian accent.

[eastsider]

You get good at deciphering them.

Would you like to do the honors?

[antidisestablishment]

Thanks for the updates—transmogulations aside. I cannot believe the lack of coverage this is getting from the Western press!

[MattinNJ]

I just hope this does not give rise to another "All your bases belong to us" chapter in FReeper Lore.

So bad, the translation is not, young jedi.

hehehe.. You can get the gist of what is going on.

I am confused. Does this mean they blew up the theater where they are holding hostages? Or does it mean they blew up buildings near it? In other words;

HUH?
