One down, two to go

One down, two to go — Sarkozy, the first of the three war criminals is down and out

    I hope the world stands firmly against all the other war criminals and hang them as a lesson for the coming new rulers.

    talking about the political issues, from my perspective, i do hope the future can become much quieter and more peaceful than ever before. Based on the whole situation from the passing years, people around the developing countries suffered variety of painfully hurt causing by those powerful countries. Whatever the original intention is for launching such inhumanity, immorality military move, those behavior just disappoint the citizens all around the world.
