damn
At least the Koranimals didn't put panties on his head.
"The fact that I and the other Britons who were picked up and tortured were released had very little to do with any activity from the British government. The Americans got Mike Sedlak [a US citizen also arrested for the bombing] released within two months. We had to wait nearly three years. Why? Simply because our government is terrified of upsetting the Saudis. They'd rather help British businessmen sign arms deals with the Saudis than stop British people being tortured by them."
Why would this suprise anyone? Remember, when they deal with infidels, anything goes....just don't miss prayer 5 times a day.
Great post.
Sad.
Muhammad/s insanity
Fixed your typo.
When I read stories like this, I wonder if extraterrestial aliens have taken over the planet. The leaders in democracies make no earthly sense in the acts they take against Islamics, Fascists, and Communists. Among them. they seem to have killed a good percent of the world's people. Yet, they go unpunished. I find Bush's comments on immigration baffling to say the least. Who is controlling the leaders?
good tagline
never underestimate the availability of evil.
Actions like this have a way of coming back to haunt those who commit them. Who knows, the man's son may grow up to become a very powerful global move and shaker, and may exact level of vengence on S.A. and the U.K. that will be truly historic.
Everyone acts the way they are incented to act.
We trust people that we should not trust because they have oil and money; they fund terrorists to kill us and torture our citizens.
It works the same way with the Chinese. They are only play-acting being a civilized society, yet we let them run a huge trade deficit against us, expose ourselves by investing in their country and grant a facist state legitimacy (e.g. the WTO admission).
We get what we deserve.
Why anyone ever goes to that hell hole is beyond me. As for us in general, it is way past time to nuke mecca.
The House of Saud appears to be the root of all evil. But it looks as if their turn won't come very soon. We still need to deal with Syria and Iran first, and who knows what will happen to the War on Terror after Bush leaves office?
yup ,... who has the "splash day" photo of W holding hands with the grandpoopie????
And our soldiers catch hell for putting panties on some clown's head and laughing at his johnson.
Not. Helpful.
They can go and pound sand.
Now is 12:30 pm here - Lunchtime - I will be monitoring happenings here and in Indonesia to see if this takes hold. Updates will be on my blog.
The world is so bass ackwards now, the US and Israel are seen as the most dangerous countries in the world.
...who knows what will happen to the War on Terror after Bush leaves office?
The American people have short memories and like change, even if it is the wrong change. This means the Democrats will win the presidency in 2008. When that happens, the war on terror will end. We will pay ransom in the form of higher oil prices, buy more crap from China and soon be a has been major power.
I'm older and can hang in there. Tough luck for our kids in the coming decades.
