Just one more example of the insidious influence of religion amongst the impoverished and uneducated. You could draw a wide line across North Africa to the Eastern side of Asia and ask yourself, how would you like to be a woman there?

Belgians did well, neutralised the guy, British took the costly way of dealing with him, tear gas and arrest then trial and jail then let him out to do the same again.

I was worried about you Russ. But I reckoned if you were in a crush on a stairway, it wouldn't be you I should be worried about.

Bomb that went off like a damp squib, few with minor burns a few kicked around by others, sad times yes , lucky yes.
Lessons for all same as it was over here, keep your eyes peeled for suspect packages and get the feck out if you see one.

Volunteer at an animal sanctuary; it will fill you with joy , despair, but most of all love, unconditional love of the animals.

You could say most people are feckless and be absolutely correct.

It is only terrorism when it is not important western powers doing the killing. For example the Dublin and Monaghan bombs was not terrorism as it was ordered by the British Government while the attempted murders of some members of the British Govt in Brighton was terrorism. The really gas thing is that the dumb public have accepted that the non-terrorist one(Brighton) was terrorism while that state sponsored actual terrorism was not. This idiocy has allowed rogue states like the UK and USA to do as they please and moronic clowns to back them all the way. Next we will be hearing that the anglo-world powers were standing up for the rights of the Jews in the 1940's. Idiots love being fooled.

Dublin and Monaghan always called terrorism, no matter who the sponsor was.
