#1 More on this from yesterday.

Could you post this again tomorrow, too? For some reason I find this just as enjoyable each time I read it.

#3 We watched, amused, from very far,
A pasha wield his scimitar:
He spun and slashed, but when he'd freeze,
There still were several thousand bees,
And every time he stopped to pray,
The bees redoubled their affray,
So in the end, as Allah willed,
His tombstone read, "A million killed!"

#5 But look at Muslims in the West, where somebody else pays the bills, and where most Jihadis come from.
