Batman The Dark Knight Propaganda?

Ahlawi's BlogBlog - Mon, 2008-07-21 22:59 By Ahlawi

Just got back from seeing it. I agree with everyone that it is a really well made movie. Nice presentation of moral dilemmas and a deep script for a comic book movie. I like Nolan anyhow and the acting was great all around.

As for us Arabs\Muslims, we believe we won (at least us Egyptians won on our side).

Why Foreigners think we lost the war?

The Heart and The Tongue

Fadfadation - Thu, 2007-09-20 06:39 By Fadfadation

Here are the 5 books i always liked (and still have in my store somewhere in Egypt):

1- Ladybird:
