I hope that the last thing his minds eye saw before he was given his just reward were the drooling demons from he** rushing toward him to drag him down with them.

May them screams from his inocent victums ring in his ears for ever and ever.

I was rather shocked that the obit/review on Amin in today's Los Angeles Times
actually admitted that this Muslim nutburger destroyed the economy of his prosperous
country, then went after just about any identifiable group, including Christians,
only sparing the Muslims.
And that it included the hideous death of about 500,000 innocents by Amin
and his band of Muslim thugs.

That's a REALLY incredible admission for the "Islam is a religion of peace"
politically-correct crowd at The Los Angeles Times.

The accounts of his prisons were stomach-turning.

His thugs murdered the Archbishop of Uganda under torture in the most vile fashion. Prisoners were made to fight to the death with hammers like gladiators.

I believe that a good part of that continent needs an exorcism.

Hmmm. In most cases, a pic like that would provoke pity from me.

But in his case, I just feel indifference.

I still hope he is in Hell.
