Blocking Blogs...Tourism Revisited..and Clap Again

I am against blogs being blocked...however..some bloggers out there are supporting my opinion with a weird excuse.....

Yeah we know the freedom of speech
Yeah we know we are obligated to share our thoughts freely
Yeah we have different thoughts
Yeah we are Kuwaitis
Yeah Yeah Yeah....

ow ba3dain?

Am tired of saying the same thing over and over and over...........

There is a thin line between opinion....and disrespect....and if some of the bloggers who are ok with people disrespecting their belief....I will not tolerate it against mine....if you think I dont like it I shouldn't read it...I say I am entitled to defend my belief....

When someone has thoughts, questions or just expressing an opinion....then they can do this freely...if people start the disrespect..well I don't blame anyone who want those blogs to be blocked.....

And lets be real...people who disrespect belief on their blogs...are just hiding behind the screen...knowing that they are anonymous...and wont be known...so go on..keep on the "free disrespectful" posts...

I know people who are against my believes...bs when they argue their points...they do not say anything that I would consider hurtful....and I respect what they say....


---------------------------

On another note...Last year I had a post regarding Tourism...

1- Every new mall has to be crowded like hell
2- I'm bored of going out to restaurants only

Now....look at Dubai current and future projects:

The Under Water hotel - Hydropolis


Dubai Land


Dubai Land - Ski dome


Dubai sport city


Palms


The World Islands


The Old Town


Burj dubai


Dubai Land- Space land


Why can't we learn from our neighbors? In the last 10 years...Dubai has been transforrmed from a desert to utopia....I congratulate them...I hope that they day comes soon and see Kuwait leading towards tourism just like Dubai......and this is not all the project....you can search for the Dubai projects..and you will be amazed....

You know what is stopping us from going forward ? the mentality in our parliament....and our business men only think about malls and restaurants....Do you see how Dubai used their water front? do you see how they used their desert?

If only they put me in control of tourism for a year....am not asking for much am I?

Walla...Kuwait is becoming boring...
Movies are censored...
Malls are packed....
Chalets are expensive...
Restaurants are full....
Theme parks are bad...
Waterfronts are dirty...
Sport is a failure....
Electricity is down...
Water is low....
Prices are high....
Till when are we gonna stay put here?

To the dear parliament candidates....the ones who were Chosen by US...by the Kuwaiti people....Stop running after unworthy issues...and stat helping Kuwait build up....Learn from Dubai...the same way they learned from us one day......We were the center of attention in all fields....and now...we are the laughing stock of others now

Racist in Us?

GreyShorts last post made me wonder....

What is considered racist?

We always hear stuff like ....Yal hindi..Yal Ma9ry...Yal etc etc etc....is it considered racist?

First Racism is the hate towards a certain group ..whether its color, religion or background.....So therefore if you hate being friends with a certain group..this makes you racist...but saying a sentence or something does not make you a racist (I think we have been taking alot of the western attitude when it comes to this)....however we need to understand something...there are stuff that we need to acknowledge...or live with..and shouldn't deny it....

For example...Grey was talking about Bado..and how proud she is to be one...and am glad she is...the best thing is to be proud of your heritage...but...neglecting the truth....thats bad....

I noticed that different groups in Kuwait try to defend themselves from stuff which are obvious....we get carried away when someone talks about a group....yet it could be the truth...and when talking about a certain group...there are limits of course...state the obvious but do not cuss for example...

I have many friends...I have Kuwaiti 7athar...I have bado..I have egyptions..I have shamyeen (as we call zalamat)..I have Iraqi friends..I have english...and the list goes on..and with them all we have among us comments that other might consider racist...but its not...coz its something that is true

Let be more Specific..I will be talking about myself....I am Kuwaiti...I am half Egyption..and a9ly from Pakistan..now these are the following comments I get:

- Yal Ma9ry
- Tabe fool
- Rajow jeeb Sayara
- Rajow jeeb chabaty
- Yal 9a3eedy
- Kuwaiti 3ala rasik resha
- Te3esh min '3air wa96a?
- edeena 7aga ya 3am ya kweeti

And I laugh...ofcourse I get back at them depending on their nationality...and we just laugh...we don't consider it Racist..but people who tend to be racist are the ones who make a fuss about it..

In Kuwait we have different types of familes that we say jokes about..Like El Mu6ran..El3awazem..El7asaweya..ElBloosh...but does that mean that they are really like that? No..I have a 7asawy friend...who we send to 7asawy jokes..he sends us 7asawy jokes..we tell him some 7asawy comments....We dont see him get angry...but ofcourse he picks on us whenever he can :P .....

People who take in the truth about their people...will usually be the friendly and good ones...because they know its not aimed at them specifically..but as an overall view....

And if we need to take into consideration the western view...you notice that generally the blacks are the ones who are less racist...notice how blacks joke about their own stereotypes? whether its stand up comedy...or a black movie...they joke about themselves...and thus they live life with no hate towrads anyone...

I believe Racism occurs when people start defending their own "group" and forget the other "groups" that make them a unity.....(eshraykom bas bel moto :P)

So guys..Lighten up..and handle the truth from time to time..we know you might not be under your "groups" category.....but Leve wiz et (The Egyptian accent :P) :D

Life Modifier...

How many of you ever thought....why Me?
How many of you ever thought.... I wanted to be ...?
How many of you ever Thought... If I had....?

As humans...We are never satisfied...We always try to get one level higher..even if thats your last level...And this comes in many aspects of our lives..such as education, work, looks, etc...but when do you know that you have reached the correct level?

Many of us don't know....Lets get into education...If I count the times I heard "Oh I want to do my masters in MBA"....Everyone wants to become a business person...The problem is..they think getting an MBA will make them a business pioneer.....

I never believed that getting a certificate that shows you did 2 years of business will qualify you to be in management...this goes for any major...because there are ways around it...people can get degrees from some universities with money...Also..what you do in you exam in the final year...does not mean you will be doing this all your life....

Education comes from the heart...there are people out there who are self educated...they read books and research ...and they learn from it...I believe when someone has the passion to learn...he does not need a university certificate....But when someone wants to learn thinking that it will make him someone....Thats when things go wrong....the best proof...look at all the businesses in Kuwait...and tell me what is booming and what is not....is it about people with a certificate? or with passion?

This concept can be used in any aspect...One of these aspects I want to talk about is looks...Women looks...Unfortunately science has evolved rapidly...and introduced to us plastic surgery...One thing I love about women is their natural look....When the girl has self esteem...knows her looks...and wears something to go with her looks...this girl should be admired....

Girls who are 15 years old are going for nose jobs...lip enlargement...cheek modification..implants...laser treatments...to make themselves look beautiful...which leads to some girls who look horrifying...Lips larger than their face...Noses so small you get reminded of Micheal Jackson....BoZZoMz that will pop out of clothes...

There is a change of style...and a Change in looks...Having your hair done...changing its color ..or its length...your clothes...something temporary...is a change in style...doing some type of surgery...is changing your body...and most probably you will be repeating this change because you won't be satisfied....

OFF TOPIC: well not really..but speaking of changing hair color...WALLA WALLA blond does not suit every single Kuwaiti girl...WALLA....whats up with all the girls turning blond now?...

Satisfaction should come form the heart..when you are satisfied on what you did by yourself...fo something you like or love...then you will know that you have reached a point...that if you go one step higher.......you will fall......

Stranger in My own Country

Its sad that Kuwait is getting to this point...

These two incidents happened to me during the search for an apartment...maybe they are the same..but has different views....

1- The really good ones that I am trying to get are rented out for foreigners ONLY..

2- Some good flats are rented with higher prices for Kuwaitis than for foreigners....

For the first point...why is a flat made only for non-Kuwaitis? And I am Kuwaiti and I should be allowed to get any flat I want regardless of my nationality......And being from the SAME country..I should not be treated as an alien...Its just not fair

As for the Second point...the increase in salary that occurred lately for Kuwaitis (both the 120 KD and 50 KD) has given the owners a chance to increase flat prices "3ala kaif elly 5alefohom"....not caring that the increase was done for a purpose of INCREASED PRICES....but no....madam I am Kuwaiti...I get more Money...Suck it from Him....and because non-Kuwaitis don't have the curse of "Increased salary 3al fathy" they have the better prices..

So if your non-Kuwaiti...Be happy your not treated as a Kuwaiti...Coz unfortunately...I am an Alien Kuwaiti...Living in My own Country...

Atheism...

A few days back...I was directed to a blog to a girl who does not believe in god...I started reading her posts...and started going to other Kuwaiti atheists blogs...and read their posts....

I won't be talking about belief here...its up to them if they don't believe in god or believe in nothing...I believe everyone has his brains to think..and if they reach a conclusion whether there is a god or not..then let them be...we ain't here to judge.....

However...its seems blogging has took away the respect to other people....here are some examples...

Bloggers nicknames:


Quotes from some of the comments:

مافيش لا رب و دب فوق هذي اوهام المغيبين رددي وراي طز في **** طز في ****

تكفيني السلحوته البحرينيه .. صدقيني اخاف عليكي من امير المؤمنين بياخذك جاريه عنده


mako allah, killa kalam fathi.


المصيبه يقولون انه ارحم من الام على ابنها

انزين في سؤال حق المتدينين... شنو احلى عندك بالجنه ؟؟؟ نهر من عسل ولا فرع باسكن روبنز ببلاش ؟؟ انا عن نفسي اصوت حق فرع باسكن روبنز هذا استفتاء راح نطرشه مع جبريل عشان يغير لنا فكره النهر من عسل (مالنا خلق دبق)


Please read the above....and tell me..is that how low people can get because they want the freedom...**** freedom if people will be this low....I Always said it...RESPECT TO BE RESPECTED...not believing in god does not give you the right to say stuff that you know is disrespectful towards Muslims or any other people who believe in god....

Yeah we know all the stuff you've been through to stop believing...but you have no right nooo right to diss something I believe...I don't diss you belief...all I say is hope god shows you the right path....


--------------

Unfortunately... These people have this mentality due to some extreme Islamists and these stories about recent miracles...

How many Islamists when they pray the ask god to kill and torture non-muslims?
How many were killed in the name of god?
How many out there hate people coz of their faith?

The prophet Mohammad (PBUH) has prayed to god to help those to find him...to give them the faith...and to help them through to believe in him...why aren't we doing what our prophet did?

We are taking Islam as a goal...Yet islam is a way to live life...our goal is to develop the land god gave us...using Islam to live our daily life..not hating any non-muslim.....extreme islamists have gave shown us in a bad picture...and these people are the ones who hit the news..and are shown everywhere...

But there are many Isalmists there who understand...who know what true Islam is...they don't hate...and give advice...

-------------

As for the recent miracles that people talk about...and send through email....write about it in newspapers...people! we have Brains...stop making others laugh at us for these made up stuff to prove that god exists...Or to prove we are right....we don't need to...Our Quran..and Our prophets are enough to prove who we are...

Anyway...here are some Miracles that you should stop believing...and think the next time stuff like that come up....

First Lie: A guy who was dug out of his grave and seen burnt due to the torture of the grave
Truth: A Saudi girl who was burnt to death in an accident

Second Lie: The Jinn that was pictured in a cave in the UAE
Truth: Its a dummy put in a cave with electric lights for his eyes


Third Lie: The picture showing the Moon cut in half that proves the story the moon and prophet mohammad (PBUH) seen in the NASA website
Truth: The power of photoshop..Searching the NASA website you will not find it


Fourth Lie: the Sand fountain that occurred in Saudi Arabia that proves the Quranic Verse وأخرجت الأرض أثقالها regarding the signs of the end of days
Truth: A burst water pipe in Saudi belonging to Aramco


Fifth Lie: The picture showing A set of trees that show "there is only only one god" (in Arabic) found in a German park
Truth: Its a drawing from an Egyptian Artist and his name was removed from the pic


Sixth Lie: Michael Jackson embraces Islam
Truth: he respects Islam but did not Embrace it

Seventh Lie: The Omani Girl who turned into (dont know the name) after she mocked God and the Quran
Truth: This is figure made to show the affect of cloning humans



And there is the one that said Neil Armstrong has heard the Prayer Calling on the Moon and became a Muslim. Never happened , go research it as much as you want.

Before Believing in these stuff...See where it came from..get Solid proof...and mainly..Know that God and His prophets don't need these made up stories to prove they are real....
