home and shot a woman dead. An off-duty policeman was shot and killed in a

 and the Surge goes on (cit. con dedica al pirla meneghino)
dovresti leggere il contenuto dell'articolo. 
spesso si legge di vere e proprie stragi di civili iracheni commesse dai
militari USA solo perche' sospettavano che fossero dei "militants".
E nessuno dice nulla. Da santini al balilla antola al mosley amalric che
frigna per quella merda della politkovskaja...
