Bombing is number 2 in American foreign policy after failure of bribery and subversion on countries that can`t land one back on them of course. I wonder how much arming the rebels against Assad, in an attempt to have him toppled ie murdered like Saddam and Gaddafi, is responsible for the present Middle
East situation :?: :?:

We're certainly not geared up to go to a conventional war. But Nuclear? Our subs that Corbyn, the Lib Dems and the Greens are trying to remove are enough, even in their current limited form, to devastate half the cities in the US. Nobody is going to attack the UK head on with that capability floating around the oceans. Not even Russia.

As for the insurgency and 5th columns, I've already floated the point that there are enough loosely controlled weapons and ammunition that IS trained people coming back to the UK could case a pretty serious civil war like the did in Iraq. Knock over a few banks, etc. Their main issue would be that, unlike Iraq, we would be able to close our shores and they would not be able to resupply from without no matter how much money they stole. So we would have a short nasty and thoroughly ruthless little war and "disinfect" a significant problem in the UK.

Hopefully the IS already know this. Then again, my military trained part hopes they don't.

There is little doubt that one day it will turn into a full-blown war, and as Suff points out, there is Kim just itching to get in on the act. Recently N. Korea has fired missiles 1,500km into space and one 1,000 km into the Sea of Japan. Kim is getting near to ballistic capability, all he needs now is a warhead.


Frank I have been saying "We are at war since Blair destroyed Iraq turning the country into rubble, killing thousands of innocents"
And a very close friend a Muslim stated that there will be "world three by the year 20020," he was not wrong in my opinion, the world is in chaos, and our dear friends prediction has been proven to be correct.

He stated this in the company of my dear late husband in the year 2000.
