Hairy you are stupid as usual. You don't have experience in anything, i=
n politics you are worse, God is about to punish your great sin for agreein=
g to kill the innocents of IRAQ. you're an old dickhead believing in non-se=
nse.
I have holidayed/vacationed in Iraq. Travelled round extensively on
local buses and met local people. Also Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey,
Sudan, Morrocco Tunisia, Western Sahara, Indonesia and Egypt.
I have walked the streets of Babylon, Petra, Troy and Damascus,
explored Palmyra, camel trekked in the Sahara desert, visited the
Blue Mosque and stood on top of the Great Pyramid.
How about you?
