Mata yu3linuuna wafaata l 3arab? (Nizar Qabbaani)

Sorry to our non-Arabic readers. This is in Arabic and only in graphic format. I did take the liberty and delete a few sections. The poem is, I think, translated into English. As mentioned at the end of the poem, it was first retrieved from a site by Prof Nicholas Heer. You can find the original at: http://weber.u.washington.edu/~heer/ which is also very useful for Arabic computing resources. There were only two minor typos that were corrected below. Remember, if you have images turned off, you won't see anything below.
