		<description>i would have thought it to be quite evident from the text that the author was syrian. in fact. couldnt be more syrian. no wait, he knows so much about being syrian, he puts other syrians to shame. a true syrian could only agree. 
So,  i agree :-)
i think Ahmed pushed up everyones stress level a notch here.</description>

		<description>Ok, Ahmad...now you&#039;re just being an idiot..... take your false sense of patriotism and pride and go somewhere else and lecture other idiots......if you only had two functioning brain cells you would know that:


1- real patriots reveal what is wrong with their country and society and try to fix it, and don&#039;t go around chanting empty slogans and stubbornly defend every error and flaw and accuse anyone who doesn&#039;t agree with them of being unpatriotic. That kind of false patriotism is practiced widely in the U.S, so go over there and indulge yourself.

2- understand what is written before you reply to it

3- don&#039;t swear here

furthermore you&#039;re banned from making anymore annoying comments.</description>

		<description>um....no....I&#039;m a Syrian...living in Syria....in fact I couldn&#039;t be more Syrian if i was born with the Syrian flag tattooed on my face!!!!!!

But I&#039;m flattered that you think I got a scholarship and went to Cambridge...I wish!!!!!! Actually that&#039;s probably the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me, so cheers mate!

But on a more serious note...satire and irony are mostly used as instruments of reform and analysis, to shed light on errors and mistakes, they are not tools for belittlement or degradation.......

thanks for your feedback....</description>

		<description>too close to the bone man!
no wonder everyone smokes in Syria. And to think that there is anychance of banning public smoking... i&#039;d be laughed .... followed by a good thrashing. which would add a further 10% stress level. or perhaps take away 10%, depending on whose doing the beating.</description>
