Review Icon RalphTheWonderLlama reviewed 1991 Gulf War... in Middle East Turmoil:
A bullshiat war over a bullshiat issue. Kuwait, a "sovereign" country? Give me a break. Kuwait was carved out of the remains of the Ottoman Empire after WWI by the Brits. It was originally a part of Iraq, but the assho...er...British decided to make it their own little protectorate, and they did not give Kuwait independence until the early 1960s. When the towelheads in Kuwait doubled their petroleum reserves (by simply pulling numbers out of their ass) and then slant-drilling in Rumaila (under the border with Iraq, siphoning off Iraqi oil), Saddamn Hussein attacked and annexed Kuwait. The crap about Saddamn "violating" Kuwait's "sovereignty" is a bunch of nonsense. After all, a nation's "sovereignty" is simply a matter of convenience to America. Just ask Mexico, or the Cherokees.

Review Icon GenghisTheHun reviewed 1991 Gulf War... in Middle East Turmoil:
Today is August 8, and on this date in history, in 1990, Iraq seized the state of Iraq that was the ostensible cause of the following Gulf War. The seizure of an autocratic state by another autocratic state is a yawner. Yeah, Kuwait had oil, but you gotta sell the oil to make any money. The Middle East autocracies have not been shy about selling their oil

Review Icon ImaniLove reviewed Be generous to one another in As Africans people, we must need to.....:
I believe all human kind should do this, not just a particular race. God created a race which is human, and as humans we should work together and be generous to one another no matter what the pigment of our skin is!

Review Icon abichara reviewed Israeli prime minister Ariel Sharon... in Middle East Turmoil:
Has been comatose for the 5 years after a debilitating stroke, but no doubt his premiership ushered in a more aggressive brand of Israeli nationalism, especially in light of the country's major demographic challenges.

Review Icon irishgit reviewed Watch out for ANY implying remarks of ANY uninvited guests..(despite our weakenesses, we must give up young men)... in As Africans people, we must need to.....:
I think this may be the kind of logic that resulted in African tribal leaders selling off their surplus population and captured enemies to slave traders for a couple of centuries.

My head hurts from thinking what this really means. After learning who this list might have come from I think I have begun to understand. I think the items here may have been a little too deep for me to comprehend so I'll just stop here, no offense.

This listing is even more garbled than most stuff from our old buddy SuKings.

I think it's a good opportunity to point out the rating system of this list. I personally like the fact that two stars means "half no."
