I can't help it, maybe he was a Beatles fan...........Raheel Mahrus Uba-y-deeh,Raheel Mahrus Uba-y-dah,lordy how that jihad goes on!
Raheel stays at home and does his pretty face, and in the evening he’s a bomber with the band. . . . .

Other than oil, when do you buy a product from an Arab country? Never. They are too stupid and incompetent to produce a product than anyone would want to buy.
The oil is already there, and they must hire Americans or Europeans to drill and refine.
Their only product is murder.
Man, I have really GOT to move to DC!
Just kidding.
Maryland “Freak State” PING!
