Shopping in New York, where some terrorists wear suits and red braces
Here is a link to an interesting snippet from the pen of Liz Jones of the Mail on Sunday (UK):

1. EEK...
<SNIP>

The banker told me that things will only get worse in the New Year. The dollar will crash even further.

'I'm beginning to wonder,' he said, over a $30 glass of champagne, 'how history, in 200 years' time, will treat Osama Bin Laden. Maybe it will say he had a point.'

I don't believe he meant buildings should have planes flown into them, but what he said reminded me of when I saw Jeremy Paxman on Newsnight shortly after 9/11, pooh-poohing the idea that poverty in the developing world could have influenced the terrorists.

2. Not bin Laden
The terrorist who did the most damage to America is named George W. Bush.

Or, as we think of him here, Fuckface.

Chimpy Fucknuts.

He's bin Laden's hero, I suspect.

3. I think we can honestly accuse fuckface of having
killed a whole lot more innocent people that Bin Laden did.

Not that it's a matter of numbers, of course, since it only takes a single innocent killing to make a person a murderer, but what booooosh and his co-conspirators have done is death on a massive scale, destruction and impoverishment and suffering untold.

As I have said many times: I told a friend back in summer of 2000 that booooosh needed to be stopped, that if he got into the white house he would be the next Hitler. The little boy in Idaho or wherever he is notwithstanding, I have had no reason to retract my statement since then.

"Fuckface" is almost a term of endearment in comparison.
