#1 I hear the evil Americans have figured out how to get long-term exposure to poppies to sterilize people, too. And figured out how to get olives to cause sterility. And fruits and vegetables. And anything but pork. And bread. And anything else I can think of, including Viagra.

#2 We've been shipping Pakistan paper to use for printing Korans. That paper also causes sterility. Well, actually, it causes their doinkers to retract into their bodies, but the effect's the same.

(And is it bad to read this story and chant "go polio! go polio!"?)

#3 If only we could find a way to introduce Polio to the "Clerics". Problem solved.

#4 This too is a CIA plot to get Pakistani children hooked on cocaine iron lungs in order to fund Bill Hillary Clinton's election campaign.

#6 I'm not worried. This is a self correcting problem.

#8 Darth, unfortunately, it is the little kids who suffer. If the clerics were the ones getting polio, I wouldn't feel bad at all.

#9 Actually, Rambler, the way the chilluns™ are shoved through the madrassahs in that neck of the woods (Afghan, Paki-Waki) like a meat grinder, it may be better for them. While I wouldn't wish polio on any kids, they're being brainwashed and bred to become future boomers.

#10 Yep. Just looking to sap and impurify their precious, bodily fluids. Don't mind us.

#11 Islam is a plot to get the world to smell like camel dung.

This coming from grown men who wear diapers on their heads.
