I knew it was, Nadine. I wanted to see if everybody else picked up on it.

Sorry. Arab hate speech does have a self-parodying angle about it, so it can be hard to tell.

Get this -- LGF is reporting that Ha'aretz fell for the parody! Too funny:

This morning I am flummoxed and flabbergasted. Why, you ask?

Because Ha'aretz was apparently taken in by our parody news item from last Friday.

[screen shot of Ha'aretz news flash saying
"Arab League condemns NASA inclusion of Israeli astronaut as 'first step in illegal Zionist occupation of space'" (News Agencies)]

It’s all E. Nough’s fault. But really ... how the heck do you read the line about “atomic wedgies” and take it seriously? And more importantly, have the victocrat Arab spokesmen finally managed to render themselves parody-proof? (Thanks to Model4 for the screenshots.)
