I think the yanx are currently desesperately in need for realism. Wake up, yanx: everybody hate you, your money ain't worth a friggin' dam.
Your bosses are about to send you to die for them in Iran and if you dare questioning their senses, you might be called a bloody atheist. Today's Americans give God a bad name, which is quite a shame, regarding the fact there's no God to begin with, just some old greedy boyfuckers looking for too much rock and roll.
Maybe it'd be better for us all... I'm as atheistic as anybody should be, so I don't think we oughta swtich to Maho-fucking-met but I think your gigantic corporations shoul get the fuck out of this universe because it's just about inegalities and environmental catastrophes.
29 August 2007: In the weeks preceding the 2001 attacks on America, there were very significant financial warning signs that something big - and bad - could be about to happen. Huge surges in purchases of "put options" on stocks of United Airlines and American Airlines, the two airlines used in the attacks, and "put options" on Merrill Lynch & Co., and Morgan Stanley, stocks of two financial services companies hurt by the attack were noted. Put options are essentially "bets" that a stock or stock index will drop on or before a certain date; the larger the drop, the bigger the gain for the purchaser of the option.
Fast forward to the present day, and we have the same type of trading that took place in the days that preceded the 9/11 attacks - but on a larger scale. Nearly $1 billion of "put options" have been purchased, basically betting that Standard and Poor's 500 index will fall significantly by the third Friday in September. A large number of these options have also been purchased calling for 50% decline by September 21, 2007. For example, a 5% drop in the Dow Jones Industrial Average would be the current equivalent of about 670 points. A decline of 11% would equal about 1,470 points in today's market. Obviously, larger drops, such as a 50% decline, would cause an unprecedented market collapse. Money would be made for the purchaser(s) of the put options - but the same purchaser(s) stand to lose over $1 BILLION in the investment if the market remains relatively static through September 21, 2007.
The questions are: who can stand to lose $1 BILLION, who will gain in the wake of such a devastating collapse, who are the investors, and what do they know that we don't?
"In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Beneficent: A Message to our Muslim brothers in Iraq. Alsalam Alikom Wa Rahmat Allah wa Barakato. (Quran verse) Oh Believers, be pious to God, and never die but when you are believers in Islam.
We are following with utmost concern the Crusaders' preparations to occupy the former capital of Islam (Baghdad), loot the fortunes of the Muslims and install a puppet regime on you that follows its masters in Washington and Tel Aviv like the rest of the treacherous puppet Arab governments as a prelude to the formation of Greater Israel.
We need to reassure -- while we are close to the unjust war, the war of the bawds, America is leading with its allies and agents -- on a number of important lessons:
First, to be honest in intention that the fighting would be for the sake of God, not to triumph for nationalism or pagan regimes in all the Arab countries, including Iraq. God said in his book, 'Those who are the believers fight for the sake of God. Those who are infidels fight for the sake of the juggernaut. Fight the followers of the devil. The devil's cause is weak.'
Second, remember that victory comes only from God. We have to exert all efforts with preparations, stimulation, and jihad. God said, 'O believers, if you fight for the sake of God, God will grant you victory and make your standing firm.' Therefore, you are obligated to hurry up to ask for God's forgiveness from all sins, especially the great ones. The Prophet said, 'Avoid falling in the seven great sins, which are: believing in any but God, magic, murder, usury, stealing orphans' money, fleeing from battle, slandering believing women... besides, drinking alcohol, adultery, not obeying the parents, and false testimony.' You should be obedient in general.
Third, we recognized after fighting and defending ourselves from the American enemy that it depends on its fighting mainly in psychological war for the huge propaganda machine it has, and it also depends on the heavy air bombing. America uses these two in order to hide its soldiers' weaknesses, which are fear, cowardice, and lack of fighting spirit. These soldiers are totally convinced in their unjust cause and their unjust lying government. They also lack a just cause to fight for its sake.
They are fighting only to serve the interest of those who have the capital, arms dealers, oil owners, including the criminal gang in the White House. Adding to that, those who keep their personal envoys, Bush the father.
We have recognized that one of the best, effective, and available means to devoid the aerial force of the crusading enemy of its content is by digging large numbers of trenches and camouflaging them in huge numbers, as I previously referred to in my past talk of the Tora Bora battle last year. Such a great battle where the faithful achieved victory over all material forces. We did that by holding firm our principles, and with God's help.
I will recall one part of such a great battle to prove how much they (American soldiers) are cowards, in one side, and how effective are these trenches in depleting them from another side. We were 300 mojahideen (holy fighters). We were digging 100 ditches spread over an area of one mile only. The range is one ditch for every three brothers. To avoid grave human losses during the air bombing as our centers were exposed in the first hour of the American warfare in Oct. 7, 2001 -- to a heavy concentrated shelling, which then turned sporadic during the middle of Ramadan. Then on Ramadan 17, the shelling turned to a very heavy one, especially after the American command was certain that some of al-Qaida leaders are in Tora Bora, including the poor slave (talking about himself) and the holy fighter doctor Ayman el-Zawahri.
The bombing lasted 24 hours a day. No second passed without aircrafts passing over our heads day and night, as the headquarters in U.S. Defense Ministry with all other allies had nothing to do but to bomb and destroy that tiny spot and clear it fro
I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, find that, due to the unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States posed by acts of violence threatening the peace and stability of Iraq and undermining efforts to promote economic reconstruction and political reform in Iraq and to provide humanitarian assistance to the Iraqi people, it is in the interests of the United States to take additional steps with respect to the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13303 of May 22, 2003, and expanded in Executive Order 13315 of August 28, 2003, and relied upon for additional steps taken in Executive Order 13350 of July 29, 2004, and Executive Order 13364 of November 29, 2004."

The story is about a boy who lives in a cupboard (i.e. "in the closet"). His Aunt and Uncle are ashamed of
him because his parents were quite eccentric (i.e. "flaming") and they are deeply concerned and afraid that
he will turn out just like them. On his 11th birthday (i.e. roughly at the onset of puberty), the boy
discovers that he is actually a "wizard", different in both style and substance from normal people, or
"muggles" (i.e. "breeders"). The boy is groomed into his new existence by a large, hairy bear of a man who
shows Harry a hidden underground community of "wizards" living right under the noses of the general
population (i.e. the gay subculture). Harry's first trip to this subculture involves traveling through
"Diagon Alley", a play on the word diagonally (i.e. not straight).
One of Harry's first rites of passage in his new life is to select a wand (i.e. penis). The wand/penis is the
most important tool in a Wizard's arsenal (or arse) and so this scene is treated with great reverence and
mystery. While experiencing Diagon Alley for the first time, Harry also pauses with a group of other young
boys to admire a much coveted broomstick (i.e. long hard shaft of wood).
Harry's indoctrination begins in earnest when he is sent to a special school who purpose is to train him to
use his wizard powers safely, while still being able to live in a world full of muggles. Young students at
this school are forbidden from practicing "magic" (i.e. homosexuality) outside of the school (this is the
so-called "restriction on the use of underage magic"). They are also forbidden from using magic in the
presence of muggles, who might be frightened or angered by witnessing it, an obvious and heavy handed
commentary on gay-straight societal tension.
The students at this school are segregated by gender, a clear attempt to encourage homosexual relationships.
The most popular pastime at the school is a game called "Quidditch", which involves riding hard shafts of
wood, handling several types of balls, and trying to score points by successfully penetrating the hoop. This
activity is enthusiastically endorsed by school officials for obvious reasons. Harry quickly excels at this
new game and quickly becomes known for his above-average broom handling.
Harry spends a great deal of time with Hagrid, the man-bear who first initiated him into the wizarding world,
but also forms a close friendship with Ron, a fellow student (and first real boyfriend). The two also
tolerate the presence of Hermione, a female classmate who compensates for her lack of a penis by being a
better than average student. Together, this troublemaking threesome get into mischief on numerous occasions,
causing consternation and concern among the teachers.
Ultimately, the story is about Harry coming to terms with the tragic and premature death of his gay parents,
who both died from AIDS (personified in the story by a cliche evil villain named Lord Voldemort). Although
both his parents were struck down by the horrible disease, Harry himself was spared (though it did leave him
scarred for life, i.e. infected with HIV but not full blown AIDS). Harry desperately searches for a new
father figure to fill the void (either figuratively or literally) left by his father's absence. Harry first
clings on to Hagrid the man-bear, then later Dumbledore, a kind but haggard old pedophile, and finally
clutches on to Sirius Black, an old friend of his father's and Harry's godfather. Sirius has the curious
ability to transform into a wild dog (i.e. he is an aggressive top). Harry's father had the ability to
transform into a horse (a sly reference to penis size, lol horsecock). Harry himself has the ability to
communicate with snakes (i.e. a deep understanding and appreciation of penises).
Harry is further traumatized when one of his classmates, Cedric, is also cruelly cut down by Lord AIDSmort.
Harry attempts to warn the others that "Voldemort has returned" (i.e. AIDS is on

Whether (Bush|CIA|Mossad agents|FBI|NSA|UGA) did wtc or not, the neocons are VERY HAPPY with the power they got from that...
Any decent USian should now get up on his obese legs and walk to Washington to impeach the bastards and reclaim his freedoms.
