| Message | They want our children to be safe? One wonders how they hope to achieve this by: - Stopping our intelligence agencies from pursuing threats to the nation - Allowing potential terrorists to claim nationality whenever they wish - Replacing a well-trained professional military with volunteer riff-raff pulled off the streets Or perhaps they hope that every other country in the world will suddenly have a magical change of heart, and decide to unilaterally disarm themselves. Perhaps this is part of the SED's grand plan to turn the world into a heart-warming utopia with fluffy bunnies, rolling hills and flowers as far as the eye can see. (Peals of laughter on the benches of the right.) - Jens Harttgen, defence spokesperson for the Konservative Partei. |
