Finding funnies in Damascus is tough,
but buying milk? Hopeless. One
can’t find the silky stuff.
Yet Bakdash thrives. Not just to sell, per se,
pistachio-covered ice cream,
but bowls of hope — they say—
to sweet apologists who feel no qualms
sharing treats with friends before . . .
dropping off their car bombs.
