You know, jsm could have answered the fucking question and that would have been the end of it. But no, contrary Mary had to wade in YET AGAIN throwing his insecure weight around. Oh my God!! Somebody who didn't waste four years at university like I did is able to think for themselves. We can't have ...

Re: Ask an American
An IED is a glorified landmine. You tread on it or drive over the switch, it goes off. Getting a bomb to go off by itself at the right time and in exactly the right place during transit is a completely different matter.

Re: Ask an American
Since the attacks of September the 11th, 5000 US military personnel have been maimed or killed in Afghanistan, along with 20 journalists, 3000 contractors and 20,000 innocent civilians - the equivalent of 10 9/11s. Intrusive surveillance and mandatory airport pat-downs have eroded the privacy and di...

Re: The *OFFICIAL* Asda thread
After increasing their profit margin on multivitamins by many hundreds of percent, Asda's chief finance officer comes out in a show of faux sympathy for the plight of hard-hit families, blaming the government and the media.
