Prayers for the dead .

Thanks Lonely Bull.

The US Congress needs to lift the “human rights” restrictions on aid to Egypt, which under the secularist leader al-Sisi is fighting for its life against the anti-human Islamofascist cretins.

Thank you so much Obama and Hillary for your great accomplishments by leading up to the ‘Arab Spring’. Egypt now has constant terror, Syria in civil war for five years, Libya pretty much the same (except for the Embassy attack that has been forgotten), plus the pallet of cash sent to Iran and it’s nuclear not treaty, as well as your help getting millions of Muslim sex offenders to Europe.

Without progressive thinking like this, what kind of shape would the world be in? I’m in awe of your intellect and statesmanship.
