In fact, when I was in Maida'n Salah earlier this spring, even the smallest of mud homes sported a satellite dish! I guess this is indicative of priorities.american_beduhttp://delhi4cats.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3489604456445421541.post-15082473057252098642008-08-04T03:25:00.000-07:002008-08-04T03:25:00.000-07:00I'm asking my dad always the same questionMrs.Norahttp://www.neeart.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3489604456445421541.post-87545613405774169512008-08-02T10:52:00.000-07:002008-08-02T10:52:00.000-07:00The bloom of satellite dishes is a world-wide phenomenon. For some it represents freedom of choice, for others it represents truth instead of government-filtered information. The fact that the dishes are preferred to other basic necessities may indicate that people in some countries are literally starving for freedom and truth.<BR/><BR/>When the sacred scripture says, "True guidance is now distinct from error" (Surah 2:256), one would assume that the starving would be somehow satisfied. Clearly, it isn't. When the children do not trust the words and advice of their father, rebellion is just under the surface.Chrisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3489604456445421541.post-12838784574275907092008-07-31T04:14:00.000-07:002008-07-31T04:14:00.000-07:00with the present technology you can get what ever a window offer from your dish + a good AC ;)NAdahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04462241456020807259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3489604456445421541.post-20993902981495410722008-07-31T03:57:00.000-07:002008-07-31T03:57:00.000-07:00LOL Jihad!
