Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over?

"The Bush administration is planning to use nuclear weapons against Iran, to prevent it acquiring its own atomic warheads, claims an investigative writer with high-level Pentagon and intelligence contacts."

Emm. I mean, I know that just because some head honcho Pentagon dude allegedly says its on the cards, doesnt mean its going to happen. But... em, lads, did it ever occur to you that you dont rule the world?



Oh yeah, if you were wondering who this journo posting this is, its Seymour Hersh. He broke the My Lai massacre and its cover up and won a Pulitzer. This might be for real.

Yeah, we don't. But it took you guys a long time that you didn't either.

Us guys? Irish people? We never really had much of an issue with this as far as I know.

Maybe you mean the English? Well, I would say that some of what the English have done through history was a bit dodgey. But, the thing is, this doesnt really make it OK for some other country in the world to do whatever they like to whomever they like for all eternity.

Right now I am not worried about the UK. I am worried about the US being run by a mentally ill man, and dropping nuclear bombs on countries.

Bunch of loonies playing at running the world according to their own warped sense of right and wrong.

Political leaders claiming they take their advice directly from God.

Truley a case of the lunatics running the asylum, the way i see it.

It happens every time some one gets control for of a powerful country for a length of time. They get arrogant and driven by their own ego for "more power".

Bush is just 1 example, but it's happened throughout History.

Oh dear, America up to it again though we did help in Iraq so we cant blame the Americans entirely.

Its crap that the government is elected by the people to look after the country and look after the peoples best interests. Yes you could argue by bombing Iran they are stopping a future threat to mankind but their are other more less violent means to do this. And like the UK im sure theres alot of issues within the country that need to be addressed like imigration...poverty...health issues...crime rate

Its like a card trick in my opinion, make the people look one way with one hand and then take with the other hand and deaden other issues

Does this mean war with israel is also on the cards?

The chances of America declaring war on Israel are as great as me beating Valentino Rossi on a lap of Mugello! :P

hehe

Seems secret israeli nuclear weapons programs are OK, but Iranian ones aren't. Watched Jack Straw on tv with Andrew Marr this morning. Was hoping he'd ask him the difference between the two but it never happened. My wait continues.
