...these trespasses against the sanctity of my hard drive are inconsequential compared to the residual effects of Snood.

The U.S. is also currently weighing the establishment of a forward base inside Afghanistan with an airfield for the resupply of a few hundred Special Forces troops...
...pseudo-intellectuals have eschewed the labor of informing themselves about other cultures and religions for the easy but shallow polemics and stereotypes reminiscent of 19th-century racist colonial literature. By perpetuating the myths of inescapable conflict and clashes of civilizations, they become the unwitting pawns of the Osama bin Ladens of this world who are itching for such a fight...
