Maybe got tired?

Ibrahim al-Idrissi, 37...He recalls a day in 1982, at the General Security prison in Baghdad...


So he was 15 years old then.

Finally.

Someone with the right experience said the very pregnant thing--it's a joke--comparatively.

I was just curious, as something about the conversation entres nous caused me to recall a bit of "jabberwock"

so I searched for the "frumious bandersnatch" and found one.

he isn't banned, but that's all I know.

You find that odd? Then you would really find the Childrens' Prison odd.

Amer's wife didn't lose the baby. So the guard took a knife, cut her belly open and took the baby out with his hands. The woman and child died minutes later.

An atrocity of Biblical proportions. End times alert!

Watched a program on the Bataan Death March and Japanese concentration camps on the History Channel today.

Compare to that, the Iraq 'torture' is a prank.

It is nice to see the polls on the Arab websites are just as vague as the Western polls.

...Then Idrissi says: "What we have seen about the recent abuse at Abu Ghraib is a joke to us."

This needs to be shouted far and wide. I am watching Hardball at the moment(a weak one) and it is disgusting.

I have a tall daughter! ( Evolution in Action! )


And I take her grocery shopping and she fetches stuff off of both the tall shelves, AND the fridge!
