Hundreds of Sacramento-area students rallied to support four students suspended for wearing anti-gay shirts. One participant said: "It's only going to get worse against Christians. We're going to get persecuted more and more. But those who stand to the end: God is going to save them." Um, right...

There's peace in the Middle East. And then there's Mideastpiece.com.
The website is the brainchild of Matt Lebow and John Leonard, two U.S.-born, Israel-based students who were "fed up with traditional gay Internet sites that offered only crude and X-rated material." Oh, you mean you fall into that group too?
So Lebow and Leonard launched Mideastpiece.com, where gay Jews and gay Arabs exist in one symbiotic online space — that caters to our innate cravings.
Reads the mission statement:
Gay Jewish Israelis and neighboring gay Arabs have more in common than, say, a gay New York City Jew and a homophobic Salt Lake City Mormon in the US. We must focus on what unites us, instead of what divides us, i.e., a great ass, nice arms, killer smile, etc.
But the part we're most focused on: Where the sites' founders believe soldiers aren't meant to be killed in war, but trained, "strenuously." And oogled.

We realize that Google's Arabic translation tools are still in Beta, but we're happy that the folks at the Middle East Gay Journal spotted a big, fat mistake in the way it translates the word "gay." We'll have to take their word for it since we can't read the Arabic alphabet, but when the word "gay" is entered into the tool, it returns the result "luti," which comes from the name of the prophet "Lot" in the tale of Sodom and Gomorrah and basically means "sodomite."
While not as offensive as "fag," the word is still inappropriate and the Middle East Gay Journal started a letter-writing campaign that prompted Google to promise to fix the error, which they claimed was a result of using inaccurate online dictionaries.
