    Het Westen is zeer zeer helaas verantwoordelijk voor veel meer burger doden in Midden-Oosten, ookal is het onbedoeld, dan vice versa. Oftewel, wij zijn bang voor hen en zij zijn bang voor ons. Wie compenseert trouwens? En de huizen in Raqqa ook, want vluchtelingen willen we niet

    Very alarming videos coming from Karbalaa tonight: Live ammunition, beatings, detentions of protestors. This guy is running helpless as he screams that others are being shot behind. It’s 3:00 a.m there

    I know, het heeft geen enkele zin om op elke ruft van Kleintje Groot in te reageren. Maar voordat iemand denkt dat’ie hij gelijk heeft: er is nul bewijs voor de stelling dat “fiscaal gedreven” is. Wel heel veel aanwijzingen dat inhoudelijke redenen dominant zijn
