Follow-up to " Will this even surprise you then?" :: Reader comments at Daniel Pipes

Submitted by Jewel Atkins (United States), Mar 3, 2003 at 21:35

I realize that this is merely a coincidence, but I have been watching the FOX series "24", and the main terrorist villain's name is ....are ya ready, Daniel?.....Syed Ali!

I tried to contact Hippocrene publishers to let them know what was in their Beginner's Arabic publication, but I have yet to hear from them. For now, there is just no limit at all to the satire this gem has produced.
