I got access to a top-secret preview of the inquiry:

- Israeli military flawless, doing great job at ethical cleansing

- Any questioning of this inquiry is Hamas

Kirjakauppa ja sivistys ulos, tilalle arveluttavissa oloissa tuotettua halpatavaraa. Käsittämätöntä, että Helsingin yliopisto teki tällaisen valinnan. Onko yliopiston uusi motto "Raha sivistyksen edelle"?
