Pathetic, they'd rather make themselves look like a pack of fools by blaming 'Bahamian terrorists' that state the truth: it's always been men, ages twenty to forty, from the mid-east.

Could be wrong about this, but according to all the maps, the Bahamas is not located in the mid-east.

They'd rather indict their own mothers than call it what it is: jihadist terrorism.

Of course, these are the same Belgian whizzbang authorities who recently mocked anyone who warned that Belgium was ripe for a terror attack, and laughingly dismissed any possibility of same.

Your post has a familiar reek to it. Haven't you posted this previously?

Why post it again? It didn't play well the first time, why do you believe it will play well a second time?

Why make this the fault of Mr. Izmirlian, when clearly it's the chicoms and the PLP who are engaging in their usual chicanery?

Izmirlian is the fall guy? Isn't that what the bad guys always do in a Constructed Fraud, blame the target, the guy who loses his money, the one whom they fleece?

You're a journalist, y'say? Where can we find a sample of your other writings? On the walls of the caves?

Yes indeed, sheeprunner12, it is most ironic, now that you mention it.

Thank you for kindly replying to my post. Long Island sounds like a wonderful place, would love to visit it someday.

Assistant Commisioner of Police, Lawrence Whitfield Major, was a valiant hero.

He courageously exposed drug lords, including Carlos Lehder, who by 1979 had stolen Norman's Cay to use as his drug running base in the Bahamas. Both Lawrence Major and Norman Solomon evinced spectacular bravery when they went ashore at Norman's Cay to confront Lehder and his goons, at great risk to their lives.

The incorruptible Commissioner Major was relentless in pursuing drug dealers and their product; this during an era when Luis 'Kojak' Garcia was corrupting officials left and right, to protect his lucrative marijuana smuggling enterprise.

Lawrence Major is credited with the single largest cocaine seizure in history, having discovered half a billion dollars worth of the white powder in the Exumas. During one of his many solo forays, armed only with a revolver - and this was long before cell phones and other reliable long distance communications by which to summon backup assistance - Lawrence Major discovered and seized the largest haul of marijuana ever, a literal wall of bags of the stuff, six feet high and two miles long, up at Black Rock.

This defense ship surely bears the namesake of a valiant warrior in the fight against crime, drugs, and the cynical monsters who purvey them.

The PLP survived the 80s, but the Bahamas almost did not.

When a cancer invades a body, doctors always recommend excising it.

Kudos to MP Smith for speaking truth to carcinoma.

Not to worry, Reuters is a thoroughly left wing 'news' service, not always reliable. The media are working triple time to push castrogonia as the new Heaven on Earth, when in fact it's still the same old, third-world, communist basket case gulag.

Castro has a long history of wooing suckers, er, sorry, investors, whom he treats in predictable manner, as he outlined in his quote, below:

"Yanqui businessmen are fools, adventurers and piratical idiots. Of course we shall trade with them, and then take what is theirs, and kill them."
- 'Dr.' Fidel Castro-Ruz,
ca. 1995

Bravo, Dr. Rollins.

The 'Medical Model' dictates, when the doctor diagnoses cancer, he removes it to save the patient.

This is why many of us read the Tribune, because you tell it straight.

Komrade Tal -

Thank you for nicely illustrating the "Straw Man Fallacy" by which the respondent raises an unrelated issue to deflect from the topic under discussion.

Precisely where in my post did you see any reference on my part to the PM or for that matter, the DPM? That's right, you didn't see a reference to either individual because I didn't make one.

Beyond all that, so what if I did make reference to the PM, DPM, or Isabelle the Witch whom I was told lived out at The Caves fifty five years ago, when I was very young? People are allowed to speak freely both in the United States as well as in the Bahamas, aren't they? Isn't that what makes the free interchange of ideas and of opinions so enjoyable? Thank you for taking time to read and kindly reply to my post.

You's, we's, and the mastermind, hatching plots in the back seat of a car. You can't make this stuff up, and if you went to Hollywood and presented it as the idea for a film, the producers would say, 'wow, great movie, but no one would believe it'. Yet there it is, on video, all true. Thank you for reading and kindly replying to my comment.
