Botanical Gardens in the Middle East

Doing precedent research on existing botanical gardens in the Middle East. Can anyone point me to a resource or provide names of any notable examples in this climate? Does anyone know of any with architectural facilities such as conservatories.

Any and all help will be much appreciated. Hiroshi Okamoto

You want to invade my country on some trumped up excuse, you can be sure I will be the first to lump all your people into one category and deal with them with all the means at my disposal.

Personally, I prefer to pike someone in the skull and let them bleed to death slowly, but that's just my preference.

oh yeah ... Go crawl back into your hole, punk.

What are the odds that Crash Test Dummy is also a republican and a Bush supporter? He certainly speaks with the same expertise in diplomacy and world affairs Dubya showed when he spoke before the UN!!!!

Don't worry, Crash Test Dummy speaks only for those brew guzzling red-necks that shoot off their mouths and run away at the sight of any real danger like that idiot Dubya and his profiteering buddies that are currently running the USA into the ground. I really can't believe that dim wit ferengi is actually ahead in the polls.

That's because liberals live in their own little world without any idea what's going on in the real world. Fortunately, most of the rest of the country has a clue.

"Dillon" > is actually ahead in the polls.

Hypothetical situation: Your 4 yr old child is diagnosed with brain cancer. Surgery will save her. Without the surgery, she'll be dead in a month. Obviously, you want to meet the surgeon and make sure you're comfortable with him/her. You meet. For one hour, the surgeon completely mangles the English language to the point where you and your spouse are tapping each other's ankles under the table as if to say "How the hell do we get out of this conversation gracefully?"

Would you hire that surgeon, or find another?

If you were a republican, you would have the babbling idiot surgeon operate on your child if he was a republican too!!!! Its that kind of clear thinking that has gotten this great country where we are today!!!

You certainly don't want some genius intern to operate on your child, especially if he is some uppity democrat that hasn't been in your hospital killing patients for four years. If he cures your son, you would be forever in his debt and you wouldn't want that. Would you?

On TV yesterday, I saw a republican bigshot already making excuses for Dubya messing up in the debates and they haven't even started yet. The dude said: "Do you want a president that is good at debating or one that will run the country?". I thought they were saying that Dubya was a master debater who always won in the debates. It seem now his own supporters have no faith in him to do that right. Why should anybody vote for the goof then?

"Dillon" idea what's going on in the real world. Fortunately, most of the rest

Yeah, sure liberals live in their own little world. We get all our information from Pat Robberson, Rush Limbo and Ann Cutter. When we see state sponsored propaganda masquerading as a recruitment video, we believe it. Join the Airforce and become a glorified gas station attendent. Yeah, daddy I'm going ship off and be a hero. It's important. Freedom. Kill people. Hero. Blah blah.

You claim to have some idea of what is going on in the rest of the world, but I doubt you even know what's really going on in your own country.

Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go tell the servant to white wash the picket fence and I am already late for my tennis doubles with Biff and Buffy and then off to buy a gift for my broker. I really do need to find a new chauffeur ... I mean 'driver' ... my faux pas. Oh dear me, I've done it again. I must have had too much _chardonay_ last night. Oh, and did my boys ship the Statue of Liberty back yet? Yes, because this is the little liberal world that I live in.

It seems they are very concerned that Kerry is now tan. Regardless where or how he got a tan, who gives a shit? My father would sit in the sun for one day and be as tan as anyone who sat in the sun all summer. Why couldn't that happen for Kerry also? Feh. If Bush wins this, we are doomed.

I have a friend named Google.

Here is a list of Botanic Gardens in Israel.

is a link to a site that can help you search for Herbaria in a country of your choice. Most Middle Eastern countries appear to have several Botanic Gardens or Herbaria.

Sorry but this isn't an index of Botanic gardens but an index of Herbariorum

Another good one: I know about a half dozen Rush clones. Their latest slam is that Kerry "looks French".

The majority of these locations are also arboretums or have experimental gardens, but if someone were more comfortable finding the same locations with the words "botanical garden" attached, use this search page instead:

search page can, of course, also be used to search for herbaria.

One good thing about sites like that, and politics in general: It keeps people off the streets and out of trouble. :-)

The "Kerry looks French" shit is an old one. Its been around since the primaries.

Believe it or not, they did the same equations for Ronnie when he was president, and they found the same results.
