[mukto-mona] Re: {PFC-Friends} Re: ICC to Investigate Israeli War Crimes



He was asking you whether you got any Einstein or Niels Bohr like true ass-kickers in your clan? As for handling virgins, intelligent people would prefer to have a real one in his bed than dreaming about 72 virgins after blowing up himself with no dick attached to body. Is that how you handle virgin or brothel ladies?

Ha ha ha, now it's clear that this Gujjo is a true CS of Zianist, he doesn't have any bloody knowledge that the true Jewish hates these Zianist and they don't have any contributions to the society other than sucking blood out of ordinary people. Bustards are only jealous of 72 virgins when they can't handle one Virgin without viagra in this life???
