miracle baby?

a baby was born in bethlehem bearing a birthmark that people claim looks like the name "Ala" in arabic (ala, his uncle, was a hamas terrorist killed by israeli troops because he planned the November 2002 bus bombing in Jerusalem).

seriously folks...this birthmark does not look anything like "ala" in arabic.

while admittedly my arabic skills are rudimentary, it is simply a birthmark. if anything, it looks more like the proposed palestinian state than anything else. they should be claiming that as a symbol of peace, not a sign that terrorism is legit.

the family should rejoice that they have a healthy child. but to make the child a freak show for the world, and to use the baby to legitimize their use of terrorism is disgusting to me.
