@TheIxtlan it is so sad that you would give your voice to thugs and thiefs, I bet your religion doesn't support that :s

@Empire895 its already too late. Look up the history of the bolsheviks my friend. Look up the FACTUAL history of what the jews did to the Russian people{over 25 mil. killed,wonder why you where never taught that in school??} , enlighten yourself or stick your head in the ground. Either way, just wait and see what they will do to us.

Wow, shocker Aljewzero !!!! a nation controlled by N.W.O zionist jews is suffering from corruption. WAIT ............. NEWSFLASH............ the Earth isn't flat experts are now reporting that it may be round.

@OurFadedGarden Except the only difference is that the Egyptians have enough BALLS to stand up against their corrupt government. We are too complacient and coddled to care.....until it is too late..

@april231953 Not all americans are sliding away from your god, because they never believed in those religions to begin with.

@BayKingston I admit that what I said was an exaggeration, but if we keep putting up with the violations of our constitution we may be there one day.

@mour66 Spoke to my Lebanese buddy just now, he toohad no idea Mubarack had amassed $7 billion for his own fortune. While common folks spend 50-60% of their income for food. No excuse.
