Mazars and Deutsche Bank could have ended this nightmare before it started.
They could still get him out of office.
But instead, they want mass death.
Don’t forget that.
Aaaaand...seems like a great time to reveal the UK's not-so-secret drone-assassination programme, as Syria is now on eveyone's mind again
UK forces kill British Isis fighters in targeted drone strike on Syrian city The Guardian 7 sep 2015
The British government authorised an unprecedented airstrike in Syria that killed two Britons fighting with Islamic State, David Cameron has announced.
The target of the RAF drone attack was Reyaad Khan, a 21-year-old from Cardiff who had featured in a prominent Isis recruiting video last year. Two other Isis fighters were killed in the attack on the Syrian city of Raqqa on 21 August. One of them, Ruhul Amin, 26, was also British.
Cameron justified the assassination in the sovereign territory of another country on the basis that Khan represented a specific threat to UK security, and that he had exercised the country’s “inherent right to self-protection”. He said the strike was not part of the coalition’s general fight against Isis in Syria.
Mostly young men judging by the pictures on the tv screen. Same tv shots have shown these young men angrily demanding buses (Hungary),and ferry documents (Greece). In one segment one young man on Lesbos said on camera, with some anger 'if this is Europe I want to go back to Syria'. It's not pc to notice this, but when populations need to flee en masse because of terrible danger, doesn't one expect a more typical grouping and perhaps some understanding that there might be some difficulty in accommodating them ?
Yikes! I am sure that will go very smooth. What would be the factor(s) for such a lopsided ratio?
There is no me. There is no you. There is all. There is no you. There is no me. And that is all. A profound acceptance of an enormous pageantry. A haunting certainty that the unifying principle of this universe is love. -- Propagandhi

Well. Who knows what they've been told. The Joad family was told there was milk and honey and lots of jobs in California.

Worth noting also that there is nothing neutral or representative about that sampling, the editing process, questions asked, stimulus responded to etc. Those comments are the ones chosen to be amplified by the outrage machine, I've heard many contrasting others elsewhere. Just sayin.

And be loved
