Subject: Re: Boycott China - please read - your life may depend on it
Ha ha ha, that's funny.
You US guys are so obsessed with military potential, everyone is willing
to invade you :)
And, to the pseudo-fascist guy who wrote in the first place, remember

To the rest of you, sorry for this rant :)
Un saludo,
Alex.
