We were so poor as kids. I didn't even see a bathtub, running water, hot water, commode - we didn't have any of that.

Why do they murder and why do they hate us? Because all of them ... 80 years of history, they all want to conquer the world, they all rejected Jesus and they're all famous for murder. Nazis, Shintoists, Communists and the Mohammedists. Every one of them the same way.
