Source: BBC

6. Much of the world knows it, but it's a "secret" here in the US media.

Hi Bernie! :hug::hi:

time. You can do better! Be direct, take out CEO's! Skip the suicide crap that only gets rid of buidings and innocent civilians. You picked the right group but failed MISERABLY in dismantling it. If you're still alive, do it RIGHT!
