Al Zahhar Speaketh, Unfortunately!

I learned a couple of days ago that my 17-year-old nephew got kicked out of school for two days for calling Al Zahhar a jackass. In defending himself in front of the school principal, S said he mis-spoke and what he really meant to say was that Al Zahhar was a political jackass.

This Spiegel interview with Al Zahhar illustrates the concept. An Arabic summary of the interview's low points is here.

Was it baghel or 7mar?

Because I think that baghel is more accurate. Though SaTel or tes also come to mind.

A 63:37 religious demographic but of course everyone wants an Islamic state. Great.

Rabee,

just for the record, it was "7mar".

I think you should take it to the next level, file a complaint at the ministry of education..
