well i doubt that it will happen, after all everyone knows how well respected the amerikkkan power is around the world .be honest we all need the imminent threat of waterboarding to keep us on the right track . and if it wasnt for their willingness to administer it to us , we might get some strange ideas about freedom

- McCain must have some inside knowledge on what the Zionist terrorists are up to - again. Because as sure as Bush is a plank, they will be involved right up to their necks.

Looking forward here for Lynne and Daithi to pop in and delete this.

>"honest we all need the imminent threat of waterboarding to keep us on the right track ."

Waterboarding? Seems tame compared to this article on 'The Scotsman':

http://news.scotsman.com/world/Gruesome-find-offers-hope-on.3878313.jp#2594537

Why do you whine about 'waterboarding', yet for some reason you avoid commenting on this:

"THE severed fingers of five western contractors have been sent to the US military in Iraq..."

I know that pointing out the gruesome tactics of the terrorists isn't helpful in an 'anti-US/UK/Israel' context, probably explains why you are shy to comment on that thread.

McCain should be more worried about the international terrorist, murderer, kidnapper, torturer and war criminal Bush. He is likely to start a war with Iran as his parting gift to the world; if for no other reason than to allow his business buddies to make a fortune out of the spiralling cost of oil.

Nah, Castro is just about dead.

Nice to see you posting at nearly 3:00 AM Scotland time, Guga. Why do you guys insist on pretending that you are Scots, then post during American evening hours?

Do you think you are fooling someone - other than yourselves?

#6 and #7 If you republican "nuke em' all" fanatics care to give me your phone numbers, or e-mail addresses, you'll find out where I am.

Incidentally, Bush remains the major threat to international peace and, as a terrorist and war criminal, he should be brought to justice (as more and more Americans are beginning to realise).

What do you mean you can prove where you are located by asking for their phone number and e-mail addresses? Due to the nature of my job and position held, I travel out very often by air and do not always stay in one place all the time. I can easily bluff my way through by just pretend to say I am staying in Australia or USA or Scotland. Then there are some other people who work as salesman who may travel a lot too. They can make up stories if they like by saying their location is in Scotland when actually they are staying in England or Dublin.

I dialed the number you e-mailed me Guga and I got "The Royal Edinburgh Hospital for Mental and Nervous Disorders" - although I forgot to get your room number from you.

I'll accept this as proof of residency, thanks! ;)

BTW, I see that you have to use your old straw man - the "nuke 'em all" caricature that you throw at anyone that disagrees with you.

The greatest threat to world peace is guys like you Guga, that rationalize sitting on their hands in the face of injustice or terrorism.

Guys like you are all the same - God forbid any money be diverted from you in an effort to make the lives of the people of Afghanistan or Darfur any better.

daffy is obsessed by the origins of scots posters . he's the disconnected foreigner on these boards . but its everyone else thats lost. what a joke you are fella . the clock is where it is wherever one is in the world . it dosent constantly refer its self to amerikkka , some sleep , some (try) to work . the idea that the rest of the world retires and then its amerikkkas turn , is just another illustration of how unsophisticated your analysis of the world beyond amerikkka really is . yrt thinking yank ,a novelty i know......

A thinking septic tank, that would be a novelty. These republican trolls think that all the Hollywood movies are true, and that John (Marion) Wayne won every war for them, from Thermopylae to Vietnam.

I take it Johnny is worried about his fellow US terrorists in their Corporate Military complexes in Washington. US Israeli state terrorism has cost the world trillions on false security.....too bad this money had not gone into medical reserach, we would have had by now several cures for most cancers and a number of other diseases.


Maybe the Mc Cain camp will again bring out the anthrax card as they did after 911 to scare the living sh_t out of fools in the population that have burnt out brains because of drug use and indocrination through religion.

I don't think obsessed is the right word, probably curious is more apt. I am too. I don't care where anyone lives, I do care if a person starts lying before that person gets to the "Comment:" part of the posting window. If they are, then one wonders if anything else that is said can be believed.

Well, the thing is, we know a lot about Scots, many, many of us being descended from them. Consequently, when a person like you comes along with your incessant blathering attempts to demean the US, it doesn't square with what we know about them. It is one thing to disagree it is quite another to be in the grip of a demented animus. That's why people wonder about your country of origin, all the Scots we've ever met have sane, then there is you, big difference, huge difference.

you know nothing about my country that wouldnt comfortably fit on the back of a postage stamp . BILLIONS of non amerikkkans around the world wish you only a speedy fall, if its painful for you to hear .thats only a bonus . animus is that not just another way to say deep and abiding anti-amerikkkanism?. guilty as charged nonuts,guilty as charged

Billions? Really? Billions? Oh my God! I am pierced! I may cry myself to sleep tonight now that I've found that out.

Just one thing, I noticed this in your post, 'you know nothing about my country,' you got that right, how could me or anyone know anything about your country when you won't tell us what your country is. As for Scots we know a lot about them because they settled a huge piece of what is now the US. I would say a good deal more Scots settled in the US than Americans have settled in Scotland.

Here is a description of a documentary film I saw about World War I. The piece was shot on the battlefield and showed Allied soldier climbing out of their trenches and assaulting the German lines. But, and this is what got me, before the first soldier sprang from the trenches, two guys in kilts climbed up and began marching up and down the line in front of the trenches playing bagpipes. Bullets were, as you can imagine, flying everywhere and here are these two Scots, like they were taking a walk on Sunday morning, marching, standing straight up like they didn't have a care in the world piping on their boys. Amazing. Talk about some juevos!

As for you, junior, who cares what you think or say. I do think it is fair to say the the 'Billions' you refer to is a figment of your imagination. You took a statistically valid poll, did you? Or did you take a poll of your drinking buddies down at the bar? My money is on the latter.
