Do you guys remember that Islamic forum we invaded a couple of years ago? Gahawer?

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/12/29/abdulmutallabs-web-posts-_n_406083.html

QuoteThose posts, beginning in 2005, show a teenager looking for a new life outside his boarding school and wealthy Nigerian family.

Most of all, they paint a portrait of someone who seems lost and needs someone to hear him.

The postings seem hastily written and are replete with spelling and grammar errors. In one, on Jan 28. 2005, he wrote: "i am in a situation where i do not have a friend, i have no one to speak too, no one to consult, no one to support me and i feel depressed and lonely. i do not know what to do."

The posts were made to an Islamic bulletin board called Gawaher, which literally translates from Arabic as "gems" or "jewels," but can also be read as "essence" or "spirit."

If you were just a little more diligent in undermining that forum, maybe we wouldn't be losing our map tracker. Sheilbh, you can blame Jaron, Fireblade and whoever else lost interest in the "invasion.'
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. :)

CNN had some folks on from the Transportation Safety Administration mentioning the glaringly obvious, that the US doesn't handle passenger screening at foreign airports.

Oh man, if that's not the coolest thing ever.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Of course.  Though do Nigerians need to apply for visas in advance to visit the US or are they a visa waiver nation?
