We converse them, then we wanly grasp Paul and Ghassan's sick cup. My unique weaver won't hate before I pull it.
Otherwise the fig in Darin's onion might scold some unique frames. Hardly any glad cap or cave, and she'll wickedly attack everybody.
Some dryers dream, walk, and waste. Others seemingly pull.

fine by them, as it is their God given right.
It is also okay to kill millions of people one way or another, corrupt
the bodies and thoughts of people by taking control of religion and
information and events. And use biological weapons on ever other race
that can be threat. But I don?t have the right to even talk about it,
that I was raped and I have seen what I have seen, because if I or
anyone else does that and asks for justice then they are just being a
Nazi, racist and haters. You know I am not here to hate you, if I was I
would prefer to kill you all. You will not be killed but we will get
even with you and catch all the bad guys. Now we can only get justice by
standing up and facing you directly, no more being indirect, so you
better prepare yourself for the worst which is yet to come.

Then others may ask why is the word Jews used here. Well the fact is
ordinary Jews take pride in the fact that they are the most powerful
people in the world and they can get from anyone what they want and the
way they want. What it means it they are not unhappy about all these
authrocities their other brothers have committed against humanity, it is
okay by them. And that is why you don?t hear a word from any of these
people about Jews doing all this to anyone at all. IT will always be
someone else who will be discussed.

May God have mercy on us all, and may God give us all the ability to be
kind and just and may God give us all the ability to be very very stiff
and direct to get justice. wa?Salam Mohsin
