“I can’t imagine you’re advocating a Carthaginian peace.”

“Well, as a historian, I must remind you that the world hasn’t had much trouble from Carthage in the past 2,000 years.”

Film dialogue from “The Stranger,” released in 1946 and directed by Orson Welles.

I’m a fan of Pershing. Sure wish he was around. Can you imagine the stir?

Bin Laden should not have been accorded a “proper” burial. Evil does not deserve such treatment. Wrap him in pig entrails, etc and dump him. Bacon is too fine to be wasted on this creature.

A Conundrum. What do you think is more sacred? The place where the victims of the Trade Center were buried or the site where they died? Just another complication in the Regimes Narrative.

...the world hasn't had much trouble from Carthage in the past 2,000 years.

Apart from when the Vandals held it and sailed from there to sack Rome (A.D. 455).

In modern times, a quasi-native of Carthage, Tenn., has tried to cause the world a lot of trouble, but fortunately hasn't been very effective to date.

Jarrett makes my skin crawl. You only have to look at her to know she has a black heart.

Another alterative, more fitting for contemporary norms, would have been to bury bin Laden on land in a place where his visitors could be easily watched. It's the same logic as undercover drug cops opening up and working at a head shop. Makes the 'successors' easier to find.

Bin Laden, with malice aforethought, placed his head in the path of an American bullet. The American Soldier was merely firing a shot to scare away some pigeons. Bin Laden’s estate owes the United States for the price of one cartridge.
