I totally agree with the 'Nuke em all' scenario. The murdering bastards deserve all that is due to them.

All 'do-gooders' have fucked the world by complaining about minor political issues. They just promote the type of incidents that we are seeing around the world.

I say 'round them all up' and ship them off to a backward country like the English did with all those convicts. My suggestion is Ireland, because it is full of illiterate, illegitimate bastards.

Now it is time for all those whinging bastards to be well and truly fucked, along with the terrorists.

ALL terrorist states - and those that harbour terrorists - deserve to be wiped off the map.

That includes Ireland.

please do not print anything written by this man ever again, it is obvious that he has the intelligence of a feminist flea. I find it pretty sad the only reason that this man expresses his view point is to get a reaction from somebody like me, well done on that front anyway.

On this nuclear story, i feel that it drips with the beautiful consistency of bullshit. But unfortunately such things as this would not surprise me as after all we are talking about the biggest mass murderer that america has within its borders. Remember this man has executed more people than any other governer before him, including one man with the mental age of a 7 year old.

Perhaps I'm wrong maybe he did survive and he is living under the alias of the guvnor

avoid stepping in bullshit it smells and it can stick to you
