NOT ONE WORD OF THIS STORY in English, rabs. Not one bleeping word. So it means people not fluent in Spanish are simply up the crik without a paddle on this story. How unexpected it is that it contains explosive, wholly unacceptble, unconscionable material. Probably just an oversight our corporate liars forgot to include it for US readers.

Rabs, this story HAS to get to LBN, one way or another. It concerns the Pentagon, CIA, the US government and most clearly SHOULD be available for US Americans, not hidden, and covered up by our filthy corporate liars.
