You're friends, family, our fellow citizens, and nothing could change, not even faith.

We are Jerusalem AND Damascus, and you are as every much an integral part of our nation as any Christian. I value you all more than you could possibly know."

"More and more people are infected with VODAIS everyday. They claim discrimination and demand that the government gives them the same support we give to those unfortunate crippled and deceased souls. Well, do you know what I think? Unlike the people that our generous government afford social security, they have chosen their own fates and as a result they must live with the consequences!

In fact, not, only are they a threat to themselves but a threat to others! VODAIS can spread through air and water; statistically the average infected person affects one hundred other people a day! VODAIS cannot be allowed to infect the populace, no matter what the cost! Starting today, all VODAIS infected citizens shall be quarantined in internment camps!"
