    I have only one question and this question has probably been asked many times, so bare with me. How the hell is Al-Jazeera getting these tapes?

    Ain't Nothin' But A Mosque Party

    I'm still laughing over "You Don't Have To Take Your Burqa OFf (To Have a Good Time)" Just remembering that song to parody it is impressive. Jermaine Stewart approves from beyond the grave.

    Oh great irony: The guy who writes a song about celibacy dies of AIDS.

    Because Al-Qaeda knows that Al-Jazeera is sympathetic to them and will air them no questions asked.

    Good job DyePack. Good job.

    You also forgot that great song by the Clash ... "Blow up the Casbah."
     
  10. Also contains the 1970's hit from Kris Kristofferson:

    "Take the chador from your hair.
    Shake it loose, let it fall.
    I don't want to be alone.
    Help me smash the nest of spies."

    And that holiday institution:

    "Don't play music. Don't join bands.
    It can cost you both your hands.
    Ayatollah's coming to town."

    * You Give Martyrdom A Bad Name

    * Shoot Him For Me One More Time
    * Antrhax in a Bottle

    Actually, it's little more than geography.

    Arab-speaking organization in Arab-speaking part of the world gives tape to Arab news organization in Arab-speaking part of the world.

    You wouldn't give your wedding announcement to Al-Jazerra, would you? No, you'd go to the nearest media outlet to where you live.
