Syria

[KateLMead]

So we are getting involved in the Syrian massacre, regardless of the good and bad factions on both sides. Are we totally crazy, after all the years in Afghanistan the conclusion is that risking the lives of our forces is a waste of time.. The poppy fields that B'Liar wanted rid of are producing more drugs than ever and the biggest recipient is the UK... Many of our forces are now addicted and living homeless sleeping in shop doorways with little help.. I am a staunch supporter of the Forces charity shops. Now we learn that due to the strength of the terrorists our government wants "To Have Talks"
We destroyed Iraq.. "Thanks to B'Liar" leaving thousands dead and as many dispossessed and a civil war to cope with... Heckles are rising again in the Falklands.
Where else do we have our troop? ( someone fill me in please!)
We are a minnow in a pool of despots, the sooner we realise this the better..

Like Cyprus, Kate? Whatever are they doing there. As for Syria no one seems to want to put any blame on the wretches who armed the rebels in the first place, like that Hague if the truth be known. OK, Assad`s is a tough regime but with the Sunnis and the others at each other`s throats they are not likely to get a better one any time soon. It was however peaceful enough when I last drove through but that was in daddy`s time,
so what has changed, just the Arab Spring perhaps. Intervention does not do any good like Iraq where bombings are almost daily now and thousands died just so then yanks could murder Saddam.

My brother was in The Regiment pederito, he says and I quite believe that the SAS could have got rid of Saddam at the drop of a hat.... but that was not what B'Liar and Bush wanted.. B'Liar has become a mega millionaire hiding all his millions of £'s of assets world wide where they cannot be traced. He has become rich on the destruction a fine academic race of people, causing thousands of deaths in the process and getting mega rich on the proceeds of oil contracts he sells to the likes of S.Korea.. PEACE ENVOY?.. that title is the laugh of the century..

One thing in Syria passed by with barely a whisper the other day....... One of the freedom fighter cum terrorist groups - those we wish to arm - aligned itself officially with Al Qaeda. It put out a press statement saying so.

I could be wrong, but I am pretty sure that it is the same Al Qaeda we are supposed to be at war with.

[pederito1]

They did support one of the Al Queda`s once I think, just like Saddam when he was fighting Iran which included setting on a nuclear pathway also if I remember right, Pol Pot.

I wish to goodness that this country would stop copying the USA and keep poking its nose into the affairs of other countries.

This only leads to war, and the destruction of our soldiers.

And as for Blair - the very mention of his name makes me feel sick.

I watched the programme on Syria last night and was reduced to tears, those poor men women and children, the lust for blood on both sides is frightening.
Could this happen here in years to come? in my opinion it is "more than possible"!! As they are dying they praise God!! Oh dear oh dear!!! Terrified children damaged for life.. What is the answer, where yesterday I felt we should not get involved today I am in a quandary..
