"72 Virgins? Wow! Cool!
What's a virgin?"
One down three to go?
Is this the first of the quartet or the second?
"He sure is ugly."
Back to PC Camp you go. Don't you know not to comment on someone's physiology or pigmentation?
God, he's ugly!!
"What was he doing in Zambia?"
That is his natural habitat.
The critical questions are: What was he doing in Britain and who let this undesirable element in?
Enoch Powell must be turning in his grave with "I told you so."
LOL!
Thanks.
No, he must've been at The Dome of The Crock..

The Los Angeles Times reported today that Haroon Rashid Aswat, a 30-year-old of Indian descent who grew up in West Yorkshire, was arrested last week and is being held in Lusaka, where both British and US anti-terrorism investigators have travelled.
