#3 As the girls were shot, they shouted "There is no God but Allah,"

Words fail.

#5 Would someone please ban HEU? It has nothing to contribute. Not even sarcasm!

#6 I think the above indicates HEU was indeed being sarcastic with his "North Korea/Best Korea" post yesterday. Also, that he's not a North Korean stooge, protectively wandering the internet looking for enemies of the Kim to insult.

#7 Yesterday was the first time I noticed HEU. I'm mildly interested to see how the HEU story will develop. Will continue to be enigmatic and restrained in his posts?

I predict one of three developments. He will continue on his current path for a while, then get bored and drop off. Or he might suddenly morph into a troll or a sitepest and get super-annoying. Or he might tip his hat with some sort of agenda which will come to dominate his posts. A more unlikely, but possible, scenario is that he will become an interesting regular. That would be nice.

The image that he posted today seems familiar somehow. Maybe part of a series of similar ones with that sort of background. I don't remember where though; it seems like quite a while ago.

So far HEU reminds me of one of those TV poker players who wears sunglasses.
(On a tangential note, WHY is that considered appropriate in a poker game anyway?)
