marguicha @marguicha (230334) • Chile 9 Nov 16

uath13 @uath13 (8192) • United States 23 Mar 11

With all the unrest overseas I have to wonder. Why do these guys want to remain in power when their people are trying to overthrow them? To me it seems like the riches & title wouldn't be worth the constant risk that one of my...

Hillary pushes "warless" world? Hey, war is a good thing!

Radicalpatriot @Radicalpatriot (665) • United States 2 Mar 07

So Hillary and her pals want a "warless" world. Not! Without war, ruthless dictators are never eliminated (Hitler, Mussolini, Saddam, Amin) and evil prevails over good. With war, evil can run but it can't hide, and is smoked out...
