Let's not get ridiculous. Tom Send a noteboard - 23/07/2011 02:10:26 AM
Anyone with a brain could see it was a terrorist attack. He would be getting ahead of himself if he blamed it on that radical mullah they're trying to extradite, but not to say it was an intentional attack as opposed to, say, a gas leak.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius
