French TV wants 12 teenagers to find a road map to Middle East peace

Most reality television shows keep their aspirations modest: good ratings, plenty of gossip and at least one participant who makes their way on to the front pages.

A French programme debuting this autumn, however, is aiming rather higher. Its mission – for 12 teenagers who choose to accept it – is nothing less than a road map to peace in the Middle East.

Les Accords de Marseille, which is expected to be broadcast on the public channel France5 in September, will bring together a dozen 18-year-olds – six from Israel, six from the Palestinian territories – and make them co-habit as they hold negotiations aimed at establishing a peace deal.

Halaal Meat: HMC vs HFA

ok i was told HFA - Halaal Food Authority are actually HARAAM

and only the HMC - Halaal Monitoring Committee are actually Halaal

i didn't know if it was true or not hence this new thread. Just googled "HFA HMC"

this is the second link given.

http://www.as-suffa.org/Food/Halal-or-Haram/hfa-or-hmc.html

it answers the question whether food that is certified by HFA is halaal or not. i havn't read the answer yet.

Justice on London's streets, the Jewish way

With his dark-blue uniform, earpiece and walkie-talkie, Nochem Perlberger could pass for a police officer as he patrols the leafy streets of London’s Stamford Hill neighbourhood. Like an officer of the law, he responds to emergency calls, visits crime scenes and pursues suspects.

However, he is a member not of the constabulary but of the Stamford Hill Shomrim Rescue Patrol, a group of Orthodox Jewish men who, for the past two years, have been “policing” the streets of their community in Hackney.

Jilbaabis are so beautiful

I've been thinking about starting to wear a jibaab but im facing two problems:

  • 'am i really "ready" to wear one / "cover up"?'
  • "Is it really better to wear one?"

Concentrating on the second one...

See I think that most young women who wear jilbaabs actually look very pretty - whether they're in all black or have colour co-ordinated hijabs, bags etc.

So I'm thinking does the jilbaab actually add to the beauty?

Is it cuz we can only see their faces so they look better?

Or they actually just pretty?

:S

If people do look better in jilbaabs doesn't it go against the whole point of wearing one? :s

So do you think they are mostly very pretty? (and "why"?)

Welcome 1431! :-)

Strangers.

[u]so Person 1 says:[/u]

  • You can't be friends with people you've never met...cuz they're strangers.
  • You can't trust strangers
  • However strangers can care about you

[u]Person 2 says:[/u]

  • If you care about strangers then they are not strangers.

[u]Person 3 agrees with person 1 on the last point.[/u]

What do u think? Who do you agree with?

What's your definition of a stranger?

What's your definition of a friend?

Do you care about people you've met online or something?

Can you be friends with people you've met online?
