Posted on September 23, 2013 by john

Posted on September 19, 2013 by john

Posted on September 16, 2013 by john

Al-Queda’s Newfound Chemical Weapons

Posted on September 9, 2013 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, the Iraq war was fought to keep chemical weapons out of the hands of Al-Queda, not to protect civilians from Saddam. The US government has shown conclusively, by past actions, that it doesn’t … Continue reading →
