All Brawn No Brain

I originally wanted to see the new Rocky movie, now I am not so interested.

In the AP news story "Stallone attacks Mexican border fence", Stallone was quoted stating: "I support Mexicans who work in my country" as he criticized plans to build 700 miles of fence along the border as an immigration-control measure. Such a fence is "crazy" and "ridiculous," he said, arguing that nations should be able to interact without being divided by walls.

The Mexican government has also argued against the fence idea - with former President Vicente Fox comparing it to the Berlin Wall. OK, for one we do not need advice from a country where people are literally dying to get out. And two, nations are well within their right to secure their borders. People like Stallone need to get a clue. Perhaps.. Ay Yo.. he's a little more like his Rocky character than we know.

In Middle East News

AP News - Assailants gunned down a Muslim preacher because of his anti-Hamas views witnesses said, moments after he exited a mosque where he delivered a sermon criticizing the Islamic group's role in a wave of Palestinian violence.

But America and Israel are the bad guys.
