Norwegian Goats Milk Cheese(V = veg rennet, U = Unpasteurised, O = Organic) |
||
Gammelost | The name means 'old cheese' and it smells like it! It is made by maturing the cheese in a very damp atmosphere, which applies to most of Norway, then working the mould growth on the outside back into the cheese. It is actually not old but quite a young cheese as it only matures for about a month. Thought to date from Viking times, if you were English and they did not get you with a sword then their breath would kill you! It is blue veined and strong tasting if you can get it past your nose. Norwegians regard it as a delicacy and delight in feeding it to foreigners, going hysterical at their reactions of disgust! |
Another point is that Sen. Graham characterized this information as surprising. I doubt he would have been very surprised at Saudi or Iraqi involvement. He could, however, have been surprised at Pakistani or Chinese involvement. He might also have been surprised by an alliance between, for example, Saudi Arabia and Iraq.
I'm obviously just speculating here, but whatever it is would seem to be something beyond merely saying that there was some involvement on the part of Saudi Arabia or Iraq, since such has been widely rumored and would have been characterized in some way other than a surprise.
The Iraqi intelligence service is known to have a clandestine presence here.
While there is no Iraqi embassy in Washington, like Cuba, there is very probably a mission of some sort. Plus, there is an Iraqi mission to the UN based in New York -- always a good place to insert dark siders.
Never forget that the entire Royal family fled to Switzerland immediately after the 9-11 attack.
They feared we'd come after them.
Bingo! Ali Bubba-2's bestest Arab friends.
To keep from embarassing prominent American politicians and their families who are in business with them.
Yup,they know how to keep the poll numbers up,and how to keep the sheeple from noticing the bad economy.
Doesn't keep you from noticing it, though, does it?
I too think it is the Saudis-who have been deep in the business of keeping the terrorists off their backs by funneling money to charities which serve as fronts for Osama and his pig pen and other thugs from the similiar gene pool.
And I think the Saudi's know exactly what our higher up President Bush and his team know...and methinks that is why it was announced today that we will be using the royal airport for a base in our upcoming war with Iraq.
The Saudis have balanced their finances and livihoods - realizing that if our government releases what is known about their willingness to payoff genuine monsters in return for their peaceful royal lives going on unfettered, America will kiss um off, big time. Businesses, relationships, everything would go down the tubes.
So now the Saudis must face the wrath of their Wahabi whatevers as opposed to the wrath of America. Good choice.
No,it doesn't. Then again,I don't confuse the Republican Party with America herself,and I don't confuse Bubba-2 with Jesus.
Ya sure, and the Swedes, ya betcha...
Never forget that the entire Royal family fled to Switzerland immediately after the 9-11 attack.

They used their political clout to fly out while the entire civilian U.S. population was grounded.
