I am a capitalist! I think if you work for it it should be yours and yours alone. If I had my way, welfare would only be for those who have lost their jobs and limited to a time limit. I think the only thing socialism in this country has taught people to do is to line up and wait for a check. I wish we only gave food, shelter,and clothing with little choice in the matter and no money, I think making it "not your choice" but just the basics would make welfare a much less of an attractive way of life. Would also take away the democrats abilty to keep everyone on the plantation as a voter base!

Lebanese father prefers daughter in jail to marriage to a Syrian
By Amira Agarib

29 September 2005



DUBAI— The Dubai Court of First Instance has sentenced a 19-year-old Lebanese national student Ittab .N, and 24-year-old Syrian national Mahir to one year in prison on the charge of adultery.


On August 14 this year, Ittab’s mother informed the police that her daughter had left home in Karama area in Ajman at 2.30am and did not return. The girl was arrested in Dubai the same day at 4pm and Mahir was summoned to the police station. The two accused were referred to the Ajman police for investigation on the charge of adultery, but the case was transferred to Dubai because the two accused had had sex in a hotel at Nakheel Diera.

The Dubai public prosecution arrested them under the charge of copulation with consent. A virginity test carried out showed the girl was having sex for over six months. During the interrogation, the two accused confessed to having sex several times in the hotel in Dubai.
