I'm not a fan of televised court cases. OJ burned me completely out.

Caught an Austrian tabloid page today: "Is a World War looming?"

(The article doesn't discuss the question, though.)

Yeah, I know...but instead of a weekend war with the same rote coverage, what we need is a nice, long televised criminal case in some stupid state somewhere.

Derspiess, garbon's got a bottle of Evian and some Mentos.  Go shoot him.

I'll be celebrating my 40th birthday all weekend, so I won't be in the mood to shoot anyone. 

LOL though at the Evian & Mentos.

Regime infrastructure gets 60-100 tomahawks from the US destroyers, the UK throws in 10 via a sub, the French....3 mirages patrol over the naval taskforce.  ;)

Syt and Zanza, the entire French military is away; this is your chance for Alsace and Lorraine!
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

There's a fine line between salvation and drinking poison in the jungle.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

So our World Wars would be fought for Serbia, Poland, and Syria?  How embarrasing.

So if this report about the chemical weapons unit commander carrying out the strike without authorization from his superior/Syrian defence ministry is true what might have been the cause ? 

A fuck-up, intentional decision by commander to up the ante, perhaps he was bribed to do it ?
