You're having problems with the mangled syntax in Al Ahram? Probably the result of publishing all those Edward Said article over the years. The guy, though a professor of English Lit (and reportedly an expert in Conrad) couldn't write a simple English sentence.
Syntax? I am havin' problem with the whole sense of it. But who I am to complain?
I think there's no point in engaging in rational discussions with guys like this one. They like hearing themselves talk, and aren't interested in reason. As a matter of fact, I'm surprised at the way we've been going out of our way to 'start a dialogue", as if we were dealing with someone interested in the same things as we are. To be honest, I've long since stopped caring what they say or write. It's all the same thing. I don't see anything new.
