My apology for my outburst. If he were mine I'd disown him.
Anyway on a more literate note:
The hand that signed the paper felled a city;
Five sovereign fingers taxed the breath,
Doubled the globe of dead and halved a country;
These five kings did a king to death.The mighty hand leads to a sloping shoulder,
The finger joints are cramped with chalk;
A goose's quill has put an end to murder
That put an end to talk.The hand that signed the treaty bred a fever,
And famine grew, and locusts came;
Great is the hand the holds dominion over
Man by a scribbled name.The five kings count the dead but do not soften
The crusted wound nor pat the brow;
A hand rules pity as a hand rules heaven;
Hands have no tears to flow.Dylan Thomas
He only throws words ... how bloody comforting. Hitler, Stalin, Mao, the rest of that lot only threw words too. Given my choice between Osama Bin Laden and Anyman in a stockade in Guantanamo Bay ... I'd let Osama walk free ... he is far less dangerous.
