The second, if it wasn't already clear, I can be pretty cold hearted at times. By the way, I'm not talking about this single case, for me it'd be the same for all .

Conspiracy theories, gotta love 'em. Doesn't really matter when the total number of victims of terror since 2001 is less than 5,000. Yet the victims of the war on terror is more than 10 times that already. If you catch my drift...

Iran air 655 could have been us, i wouldn't be suprise. but people in europe and the rest of the world seem to forget..maybe conveniently korean air flight 007

i could be wrong but i don't recall any terrorist retaliation from the south Koreans....


that said though this boycott Scotland thing is very silly. if you are determined to blame someone blame the gov i guess..not the people imo.

The evidence convicting him has always been questionable. Scotland are free to make political decsions, and im not boycotting Scotland. New Years is too much fun in the 'burgh.
