ManBeef.com was a joke, but it seems in other countries, News Agencies,
the Government, etc., all reported on this DISTURBING American Website,
but in America, we saw reports of a 'farce', a 'joke', a 'hoax', and (my
favourite) a 'site designed to push the movie Hannibal'.
But today, I saw a Newspaper from Egypt which really takes the cake, and
