From the uploader.. "FYI: The hotel reference is related to what she thought were the buildings on fire."

http://www.boingboing.net/2011/01/29/egypt-5-year-old-gir.html">Transcript from Boing Boing: "And by the way, some of your police officers removed their jackets and they're joining the people." Juju, who is 8, and from Saudi Arabia.

Hat tip to Sabrina for the find: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=439&topic_id=306505&mesg_id=306896

4. If an 8-year-old in Saudi Arabia is so thoughtful, so intelligent and
so articulate (in English no less), then I feel a lot better about the future of the world. She is the future prime minister or president of Saudi Arabia -- the very picture of female wisdom. Mubarak this is your mother speaking (when she was eight).

What a sweet little girl. I'm sure she brings her parents great joy.

6. No, she's the future PM of Arabia
. . . as the nation shall be called after it is no longer a fiefdom of the House of Saud.

9. Yes, I loved that little whisper supposedly to him
at the end. The girl has a sense of humor. And she's smarter than the world leaders who seem to have no idea how to deal with people demanding their freedom.

This is why I love children. They cut through the BS and generally see the difference between right and wrong.
