64 more and i feel good.

sand storms happening fairly regularly thus my running schedule has been interrupted. Hopefully it is just a week long event and not a long term situation.

So Osama bin Laden has been reported killed. Of course not a single one of the students or the converted teachers here believe that it is true. I really don't know what to say about it except there are a whole host of people here that hate the US so much that they would prefer that OBL be alive than give the US special forces that risked their lives any credit. Everything that gets said in the media is twisted to prove that OBL is still alive, or at least that he wasn't killed recently by US troops. Here is a typical exchange I overheard. "Did you see that the US has warned that the threat level has been elevated since they announced it? Yeah they (US) must be planning to stage another big attack against themselves to get another war." This would be one thing if I were hanging out in conspiracy cafes but this was said by two British Muslim teachers at my school in the office that i work in. They believe that the CIA was responsible for the Sept. 11th attacks and that OBL is made up by the CIA to give a reason to dislike Muslims. It makes my head hurt. 2 months then good riddance. They can keep their ignorance and I cant wait for the oil to run out.
