This is dumb even if you disregard the matter of total casualties. Guessing it'll get an inordinate amount of attention from the dumbasses at Fox and their slightly dumber viewers.

So how many were extradited to the US and counted in the figures? Read the first article and it seems to be missing that.
I'm amazed the total convicted is so high. Other than Boston I'm struggling to think of many other terror attacks but 549 convicted is a lot. I wonder how many attacks have been foiled, our security services do a very good job.

Being a pathological liar seems to be a job requirement in this administration.
The conservative way of arguing is what gets me. They never enter into a discussion willing to exchange ideas or even listen to what the other side is saying. They think that if they yell the loudest, talk over you the longest and repeat something (truth be damned) enough that they win and their side is right.
It's like someone decided to narrate Lewk's posts.
Well, you can't exactly function as Trump's press secretary if you're not. How could someone with the least inclinations towards honesty even KEEP that job?Quote:

There was a really good article along similar lines recently on the BBC basically on the subject of "what happened to Trump's Generals?"Quote:
