I mean, the sign? "This fence is here for your protection. Do not approach or try to cross, or you will be shot." Grievious goodness.



"You have to understand the Arab mind, ... The only thing they understand is force" Gaah. Arrgh. Where did he get that from, his great-grandfathers diary? For *** sake.



As for arresting people because their relatives are suspects of crimes... time honoured. Did that Pearl Harbour movie happen to mention the fact of asiatic U.S.-inhabitants being put into camps for a couple of years?


*deap breaths, deap breaths*

O.k., difficult situation and drastic measures and all, but this still sucks.

dear gods, please don't let Bush II be re-elected.
