We're the lowest of the low, the scum of the earth, the most wretched, servile, miserable, pathetic trash that was ever shat into civilization. Some people hate the English, but I don't. They're just wankers. We, on the other hand, are colonized by wankers. http://salem-news.com/articles/may222012/queen-vicky-ka.php http://salem-news.com/articles/may222012/queen-vicky-ka.php Tue, 22 May 2012 12:04:00 PDT My beloved husband, Ziad Jilani, was executed by Israeli Border Policeman, Maxim Vinogradov on June 11, 2010.

It is vulgar, it isn’t funny and if it has five good jokes in it, they appear in the two minute official trailer.

Instead, the world continued with the business of war as usual (and war is business). One of the most destabilizing forces in the world was created and sustained for 100 years before the USA took on nurturing it after WWII. I am of course speaking of Zionism. http://salem-news.com/articles/may202012/nakba-actions-mq.php http://salem-news.com/articles/may202012/nakba-actions-mq.php Sun, 20 May 2012 00:26:00 PDT The Jewish philosopher Maimonides ascribes circumcision to a moral order that, under the guise of religion and/or tradition, pretends making supermen.

Americans are convinced that they have a God-given right, or destiny, to expand the country’s borders from “sea to shining sea”. “The land of the free and the home of the brave” was conquered with complete disregard for the rights of America’s original inhabitants. http://salem-news.com/articles/may122012/american-bully-pb.php http://salem-news.com/articles/may122012/american-bully-pb.php Sat, 12 May 2012 20:58:00 PDT Victors’ celebrations harbor shadows that lurk in the soul as revelers dance in remembrance.
