Good News: Algeria-Egypt Feud to be Mediated; Questionable News: It's Qadhafi

Whew: now we can all relax. The Arab League has asked someone to mediate the intensifying Algeria-Egypt football feud.

Oh, wait. It's Qadhafi.

That may be enough to make them patch it up themselves.

Would there be a need to mediate in something blown out or proportion in realtion to a game of FOOTBALL, Politics and Policins should stay out, they alreay have done enough damage!!!

Interesting. So, the message I'm getting is that they're hoping that the situation will deteriorate further.
