Hot on Facebook
Facebook, formerly a world of mundane, self-centered utterances, is now the social network of sadness, a place to witness our dead and count their bodies, to name our Fridays and “like” pages of martyrs. It is a cemetery of friendships and fertile ground to plant new alliances.click me | أنقرني email quote to a friend

powerful poetry, in language that is difficult to hear. i do not condone the gloating over corpses. but the people's literally visceral response to the demise of their dictator does not condemn the revolution. my heart is with the Libyan people celebrating their freedoms after 42 years!
