that, and in terms of political disscusion, the election is over and/or it's been done already
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I know this might come as a shock to you, Mr Kumquat, but there are other countries in the world, and they have elections, too!
For a political discussion, how about this:
Yesterday, insurgents timed three explosions to go off in quick succession.
This had the effect of killing loads of people with the first explosion (a busstop, I think), then a car bomb went of a few minutes later, killing and injuring the medical staff who were attending the scene. Then a third bomb went off.
I find it indefensible that these people (who aren't killing themselves, these were vehiclar bombs on timed / remote detonation) now target doctors and nurses.
