It's interesting who we call terrorists and who we don't. If an Arab nation or organization had done this it would have been called a terrorist attack. Israel does it and people defend it.

Terrorist is a meaningless scare word for "people we don't like".

[Bernie] may be old, but he's still mentally intact.

Just cut to the chase and provide the education. If everyone has access to robust and adequate education then you don't need the test.

My childhood home phone number is more burned into my memory than my current phone number.
