The Christian will now be lining up against the Islamist in the ghettos of Europe. The only problem will be that the Government Of Germany, Italy, Britain And Swiss will be siding with the Sharia loving maggots sucking off the welfare system to keep them in power. Islam is votes for Marxists and terror for European white tax payers.

He mustard his forces and chased the foe until he managed to ketchup for a final a salt. The French fried them, they began to shake and then they received their just desserts.

I'm hungry.

I work for a French company. The French like word play. It is a favorite form of humor.

That said, I've been looking for a t-shirt: Where is Charles Martel, when you need him?

It doesn’t appear that Charles Martel suffered from any form of PC. Thank God for that.
