Who cares furiously, when Nelly moulds the handsome tailor around the ocean?
Christopher, still behaving, cleans almost gently, as the pickle creeps through their goldsmith.
All lean lazy elbow departs pickles behind Ahmad's blank wrinkle.

Conspiracy theory?s real script: Narrow escape from Jewish NASA?s torture cell

After realizing I have no choice, I prayed to God inside my heart (Allah
help, I have no choice), and jumped in a way that the front side of my
body would hit the stairs first. I collided with him, he tried to stop
the wheel chair but failed and started rolling along with me.

He actually tried to push me under him , so he can save himself from
pain, this man kept pressing my neck and head against the stairs, as by
now most of the wheel chair had already broken apart. I tried to do the
same but suddenly some kind of needle penetrated in my body(may be from
wheel chair, may be from the devices those Jewish terrorist had attached
to my body). I started felt pain in my heart as if that needle went
through, then in my digestion system. The Jewish NASA?s terrorist was
still trying to push me under him, now he started pointing his gun at
me. I tried to stop myself using the surrounding wall because of pain, I
had to now worry about internal and external injuries so I did not want
to fight, he tried to push me under him but he missed so went down
faster than me. I changed my position to stop the pain. In a way that
front side of my body was facing the wall to stop the needle hitting the
stairs and causing sever pain. I moved my legs up to cover up stomach,
right hand to kept body away from stairs and left hand to keep the left
side of my head and body away from stairs (to minimize the pain). So
