Well, my fellow Americans, it has finally happened.
The nation whose only noteworthy contribution to the world since WWII has been to unleash a wholly alien, frightening phenomena, the brain-boring syndrome aka Mad Cow Disease has finally succumbed to the ravages the collective consequence of its insipid, gut-wrenching cuisine has had on its cognitive capabilities, mental capacity, as manifested by this news item.
It's probably too late to renege on our Lend Lease Act with England but what the heck. America as always will go it alone and to hell with those fish and chips, pork offal eating Limeys.

Cue up the "Not this %$#@ again" pic, please...
The pinhead need to label properly, to not upset the "innocent" Muslims, or whatever.... It's like an illness.

aimless "death cult." Yep, aimless Kenney boy. 1350 years aimless. Practice prayin' five times a day Kenny, and don't bother gettin' off your knees between prayers.

The term "Islamic terrorist" will also no longer be used. Officials believe it is unhelpful because it appears to directly link the religion to terrorist atrocities.:rolleyes:
How low can they possibly sink?

This really enrages me to no end. At least I know that Winston Churchill is absolutely turning in his grave to see how his countrymen in a matter of only sixty years have turned into a nation of effete, pussy-whipped, girly-men.

Now the terrorists won’t hate England, or attack them, or anything......or...they might anyway.
Well even when the terrorists do attack England, the Brits can be confident that it’s not because they profiled, or labled, or prejudged THE TERRORISTS.

Thanks. Just what this silly story needs. Are people just turning stupid, or what?

We paid you back every last penny and the interest you charged us for your material Lend/Lease ‘help’, Yanks.
You gave us nothing, I say again NOTHING, for free in this regard.
I herewith make the honourable and notable exception of the blood of your heroes, who died protecting an ideal. Whose boots you are not fit to lick and who would find your comments regarding the Allies they died alongside puerile and highly offensive, as do I.
Kindly dissociate, in what passes for your mind, Brit people from Brit Government.

Greetings 5050 no line:
Thanks for reminding FReepers that our Brittish cousins also have their share of silly politicians too. Concerning Lend-Lease, you both are correct:
A total of $50.1 billion (equivalent to nearly $700 billion at 2007 prices) worth of supplies were shipped: $31.4 billion to Britain, $11.3 billion to the Soviet Union, $3.2 billion to France and $1.6 billion to China. Reverse Lend Lease comprised services (like rent on air bases) that went to the U.S. It totaled $7.8 billion, of which $6.8 billion came from the British and the Commonwealth. Apart from that, there were no repayments of supplies that arrived before the termination date, the terms of the agreement providing for their return or destruction. (Supplies after that date were sold to Britain at a discount, for £1,075 million, using long-term loans from the U.S.) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lend-Lease
Cheers,
OLA

If it’s “War against Cults”, that would be an option. Al Qaida seems to not hate the term “Terrorist”, but may be very uneasy with the term “cult” that would harm their image, portraying Al Qaida as an apostate of their original religion with delusions of judgement day and etc., in other words being portrayed similar to Shiite which these Sunni dominant terrorist group hates. It's the worst label given to any religion, becoming a joke of their community.

I guess I’ll be in the (probably very small) minority here but I never like the use of the term “war on terror” because its undefined and would never end. My concern is that it could indefinitely serve to justify extra constitutional excess for future administrations with no end in sight.
