Whatever happened to,"WE WILL NOT NEGOTIATE WITH TERRORISTS?"

Fools don't think Muzzies lie( shar'ia law established in gaza, killed what 7 people for religious intoloerance in last week) so they can "hudna" their way around laws and kill more infidels; lax the immigration laws and import more folks that have no reason or order to naturalize into the country of emigration> FOOOLS, do not give them an inch!!
