We'd better go farther than that to show 'em we mean business. We should tell 'em they're *ALL* dead meat, but if they release the hostages--and I mean *RIGHT NOW*--we'll kill 'em quickly. Otherwise it'll be slow torture, and we'll force them to watch it, too. Ahh, the Fuehrer would be proud... Actually, the most ingenious solution (as opposed to the final one) I've heard is for the US Gov't. to insist that Israel release all its Shi'ite prisoners--to the US Marines. -- *** *** JE MAINTIENDRAI ***** ***** ****** ****** 25 Jun 85 [7 Messidor An CXCIII] ken perlow ***** ***** (312)979-7753 ** ** ** ** ..ihnp4!iwsl8!ken *** ***
