Too late for that, I'm afraid; they're just playing for time. The season for banter has passed and our next move will be proper ****housery.Quote:

Yes. It's almost as though appeasement encourages aggressors to be more aggressive, isn't it? If only there had been any salutary examples of this phenomenon in recent history from which people could have learned.Quote:

Perhaps the idea is that the Chinese and/or the Russians ought to do the marching, not us. Either way, the Norks are about this close to having a proper capability, so there's really nothing left for us to talk to them about.Quote:

Must be Trump.
Where were the WO again? Was it in Washington, DC? Must have been, cos it's all down to Trump.

University of Life. School of Hard Knocks. That's where you want to take your learning.
My uncle (God rest his soul) was your actual professor of your actual modern history in one of the biggest universities in the British Isles. I once saw a seagull sh1t on his head and he rubbed it in, thinking it was a raindrop.Quote:
