  • I have visions of a LiveLeak video showing a pale-faced Bashar Al-Assad with blood over his face and bullet holes in his skull, accompanied by a soundtrack of massive snackbaring.

      Rubbish.
      The Libyan elections for a house of representatives just finished and the Secular Coalition seems to have the majority.

      There is a 2 week period before declaring the winners but it's a good start.

      Would you want to live under Gaddafi or Assad yourself?

      Anyway, let's assume these Arabs elect some crazy islamists, so fucking what? It's their choice and how does it effect your corner of the world?
      If they're not happy with their government they know what to do now...

      I certainly hope it does not end. I want it to spread, and let muSLIMS kill muSLIMS. Every death, makes the world a safer, better place to live.

      We should be instigating more of this (and probably are)
