U.N. Envoy ‘Worried’ About AfghanistanPosted on Jan 6, 2010

“Bugsplat” is the metaphor used by CIA and Pentagon motherfuckers to estimate the number of children who are blown to pieces with our approval and tax dollars.

Worried? What about fired up to prosecute the scumbag US military men and women who illegally break into civilian homes in the middle of the night and murder Afghan schoolboys? If you don’t bring these NATO murderers to justice, then you should that YOU will end up in the Hague, hypocritical insensate!
