My fellow Duranians:

After my discussion with Larry Johnson last week, which I posted here on theduran.locals, I wrote to both Alexander and Alex to explain the following which I have decided to share with you all too.

I did some more research on the Tomahawk BGM-109 A, as well as most of its variants and wanted to explain to you that Tomahawks are no longer nuclear capable if they are the ground based versions which have been discussed at length by the Duran, as well as many other media outlets.

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"

I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad !

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

Hope to see you all asap.
