From the Mouths of Cooks

Zayed has the "Iraqi Street's" reaction to the Israelis taking out Sheikh Ahmed Yassin. It's a lot more mixed than I would have thought. Note this:

Our cook had the most interesting reaction. "How many young men did this @#%$ send to death by brainwashing and fooling them into carrying out suicide attacks? How many innocent people had he killed?" he shouted to the doctor, "And how many thousands of dollars did he get in his Swiss bank accounts by pimping on the Palestinian cause?". "If he was truly such a hero and a believer in Jihad how come he didn't rig his wheelchair with explosives and blow himself up at some Israeli checkpoint? I say f* him". We advised the cook to stay out of politics, at least for the moment, and stick to his task of scrambling eggs for us.

Frankly, I couldn't have said it better. Hope springs eternal, my brothers.
