    Well, Ayman, you have a point, they might be Jordanian troops, who knows! It is funny, regardless;-)

    LOL! But hey I will make some defense here… The second picture is not from Syria! This is not a Syrian army uniform. Actually the blue tells us this must be a UN force and Syria never participated in UN peacekeeping troops. Jordan did, right?!! 😛
    As for the first picture, I don’t think denial works! 🙂

    PM,
    Good point 😉 I guess a “chick point” is something that would keep them going during their long, hectic days;-)

    I see your point Jareer, but still it is quite amusing to see those spelling mistakes displayed to the public so blatantly;-)

    Hey boys and girls !
    Stop picking on those poor (ghalaabah) people. Why dont you give them the credit instead for using a language not their own to convey the message to non-Arabic speakers. Imagine your self in the middlle of a desert, or at a military inspection point where all what you need to know ( as a non-Arabic speaking person ) is whats going on. Would you care then for spelling !

    Okay this is too funny. I have many cousins who were born and raised in Jordan and they have a hard time pronouncing the “V” sound. I have a cousin who believes its “Felllcro” instead of Velcro. Hehe!
