The Truth, Anyone?

12 07 2007

An electronic Saudi newspaper that states that the “scary snake-looking baby” is a real baby whose mother was a drug addict, that the baby is “deformed” because of the mother’s addiction, and that in fact this incident took place in KSA and not Lebanon!

A Doctor says that the baby suffers from a case of ichthyosis fetalis, a rare disease only 100 babies around the world were diagnosed with.

The video is uploaded on Youtube and titled as : Happening in Al Amal hospital, Amman -Jordan. The same video is uploaded on a very popular Jordanian forum, with the video, a disclaimer stating this incident took place in Al Basheer hospital was posted.

This is becoming really confusing, I still insist that what the nurses did was horrible, whether it took place in KSA, Lebanon or Jordan. I just hope it didn’t in fact take place in Jordan, even if the nurses were Jordanian. How can figuring out where this had happened be this hard and confusing, ugh.

I was watching this man’s show; Mohammed Hassanein Haikal, on al Jazeera TV just now, I read some articles for him before and I watched a couple of interviews with him. I always knew he is an intelligent arab journalist; but never thought that he is that interesting.

Im not so much into politics but I found myself watching him now, he has a great way in gaining the listeners’ attention, and the most incredible thing about him is that he is over 80! This guy has brains in his head more than I ever did, and more than anyone I know does. His show is a weekly show I guess, every thursday 10pm our time, I strongly recomend watching it.
