We shall always do our best to verify the accuracy of all items in these IOP newsletters/reports wherever possible [e.g. we often suspect that names of people and places that we see in the PMG sitreps could be typos; also the translation into English seems rather odd ~ but since we, sadly, do not speak Arabic, we have no alternative but to copy and paste these names from the PMG sitreps!] – please forgive us for any errors or omissions – Leslie and Marian.

Dear, dear Gaby, your comments are resplendent with the egregious smug of one with the inside knowledge, one who feasts daily on the blood of innocent children rounded up and delivered to you by the IDF drones and mutants in civilian clothing and full metal jacket alike. Your laws are not our laws, yet you claim ‘religion’ as a tax dodge. Your time spent in the salon with the wittering of hairdryers and the crunch of woman’s weekly as you idle the hours away must surely have dulled any of those human senses you seemingly purport to possess, hence the ‘yawn’, oh charming bot of the week.
