| #4 This should get Pakistani heads spinning. Because we don't give controllers to the Pakistani Air Force? But then the Pakistanis should recall that, however primitive, Yeminis are of the Arab Master Race, whereas Pakistanis are merely of the Master Religion, only of dilute Mongol (Moghul) blood, the rest of their heritage being no different than those despicable Hinjoo Untermenschen. |
