Maliki has not accepted Mookie's stupid surrender terms yet.
Keep pounding them, guys. They've caused us a lot of trouble this past week...all of us. Make 'em pay.

The Greatest Happiness is to scatter your enemy and drive him before you. To see his cities reduced to ashes. To see those who love him shrouded and in tears.

Yes, he's seen Mook "surrender' before only to make trouble again and again.

Well, sure, isn’t that the way it always works - first the engagement, then the wedding?
