An Iraqi woman's lament


Come and see
our overflowing morgues and find our little ones ...
You may find them in this corner or the other, a little hand poking out, pointing at you...
Come and search for them in the rubble of your ‘surgical’ air raids, you may find a little leg or a little head...pleading for your attention.

Come and see them amassed in the garbage dumps, scavenging morsels of food...

Come and see, come....

See them being trafficked, raped, sold and finally killed by your brave boys. The “final solution.” Remember that one? It was not so long ago...Except this time it is carried out by the "greatest democracy on earth." …

To protect our little ones and safeguard the sanity of the world, THE MAD DOG MUST BE KILLED, removed from the face of the earth – OBLITERATED! You do not talk or reason with a marauding mad dog, you put a bullet in its head. Save the world and civilised society, NUKE AMERICA AND NUKE IT AGAIN AND AGAIN UNTIL IT IS COMPLETELY OBLITERATED -- UNTIL NOTHING REMAINS; NOT A COCKROACH, NOTHING! NOT A MICROBE TO CONTINUE THE CULTURE OF DEATH, DESTRUCTION AND MADNESS!

No other nation invades other nations today, not China, Russia, none! ONLY AMERICA’S HANDS DRIP WITH THE BLOOD OF MILLIONS OF INNOCENTS – the marauding mad dog, the killer beast, the murdering thief; the destroyer of civilisations, laying waste to nations.

If the devil existed and it had a home, it would call it AMERICA; the poison of the world! NUKE IT AND NUKE IT AGAIN AND AGAIN UNTIL IT IS COMPLETELY OBLITERATED …

There really is a time to kill and a time to refrain from killing, the time is approaching, the attacker will be ATTACKED and annihilated! There is no reasoning with a callous beast!
