Yes. The national security card is too easy to play – they can use it to justify anything and anything. Even, heaven forbid, mistakes and cover ups.

He’s a white Nigerian.

Nobody respects Italian democracy (corruption plus a new goivernment every 5 minutes) and I have to say, the Italian electorate have demonstrated why this is the case, by allowing such a contemptible man to be in charge.

Suaron – they are innocent until proven guilty. If you cannot prove them to be guilty via an open court, then as far as I am concerned they are innocent and should be freed with a public apology.

I hate Linux.

I tried it once, and it was very slooooow. It was nearly unusable in fact. And on the same system (Athlon 1Ghz, 384Mb) XP Pro works perfectly.
