One of the suspects was named as Singe Majeep and the other was called Mahouds roasting!
They were taken taken to hospital and made to eat haggis and recite ancient scottish poetry - it was a BURNS unit! (hope you guys can understand all that shit).

It is obvious to me that we have not been hit hard enough yet.

What scares me the most here is that some of those caught are Doctors.
I just don't get how someone who has signed the hippocratic oath can conspire to murder people.
If you can't trust a Doctor any more, then we are really in trouble.

Good point, Suse...btw, Gordon... I have some friends coming that way to perform in the Fringe Fest at Edinburgh, so I'm keeping all of you folks in that neck of the woods in my prayers.

What "media" are YOU watching? Every time I turn on the news, be it CNN or Fox or anything in between, this is all I hear about. *Well, that an certain Heiress's jail time...but believe me, there is no shortage of cover on the so-called "War on Terror". Just because people aren't running around in a panic and are simply getting on with the business of their lives doesn't mean we are uninformed. What would you have us do?

I know what you mean - but what about Harold Shipman?

OMG I'd put him to the back of my mind! I'd thought he was a one off, I suppose.
No excuse for murder, but in his mind did he think he was putting elderly and infirm people out of their misery?![]()
These are young Doctors planning to kill hundreds of innocent people. Is there a difference? Bloody Hell Gordon, you've really made me think now.![]()
All taken the hippocratic oath, all murderers. S'pose there's no difference?
All of them are making me think about this Country's views on the death penalty - but does that make me as bad?
Now my head is spinning.

Very worring times for both our nations.

Glad you were able to work it out, Susie. The best jokes are the ones that make you think a little.
But after drinking some coffee and waking up a little, I realize the thread topic is no laughing matter. Sorry.

The media and those on the left want us to pull out of Iraq, do they not? I sense the media and the left do not take the effort to eradicate terrorists and terrorism seriously, simply by watching their actions and listening to their comments. They would rather simply react to it and somehow control it. Which of course, will never end it.

Yep. That war in Iraq is doing a lot of good.![]()
I hate to point it out to the bumper sticker patriots out there. But, George W. Bush has more American blood on his hands as the result of this bullshit war than any terrorist organization. 3,588 dead Americans in Iraq alone. That is not to mention the number of dead Iraqis. But, they don't count, do they? Those 70,000 or so dead brown people. I am sure they were all insurgents or Al Queda. At the very least, they were probably Muslims and I suppose it is us against them. Yes sir! Your heroic president has more blood on his hands than anyone in this hemisphere. And for what? Do you believe that we are any safer today then they were on September 10, 2001? It will not be long and there will be another attack on U.S. soil. I wonder what the coward in chief (and his chickenhawk supporters) will have to say then?

Fair point - but Bush had to be seen to go after someone - what i never understood was why an act perpetrated by an arabic group resulted in a war against a muslim group. I no longer believe ANY news channel.

I had no problem with going after the Taliban and Al Queda. At that point, Dumbya had the support of the world. We should have stayed on target instead of getting bogged down in this never ending clusterfuck that we are involved in now. We have not achieved anything in Iraq that in any way justifies the cost in blood and resources.

So I guess we should just pull out now then? The cost if we do that is going to be a whole hell of a lot higher down the road than what we are paying right now.

Talk cost to the people who have lost loved ones over there! I'm sure it's not on the top of their list of issues. My husband has been in Tikrit for 8 months. His unit just lost a 26 year old. Bush is a fuckwad. IMO
Don't mean to offend this is just a very hot issue with me!
