So my cunning plan worked!

Going to war on more dodgy intelligence and what happens when they don't show up

The more I see and hear the more I think we should have nothing to do with it and am grateful to corbyn for asking the questions no one else bothered to in their rush to war but to be fair why would politicians wait, precious few have combat experience and it won't be their children coming home in body bags. Wasn't it Einstein who said something like the surest sign of insanity was to repeat the same mistakes over and over without learning anything. |
^This ..
The air stike option seems more a political response than a military one. Cameron's problem will come when one of our jets are shot down and the pilots captured by ISIS. Noone is talking about this scenario ..
UK energies are better spent in helping the Kurds and the Iraq army fight ISIS. More importantly, the UK can have more impact on the war by working on UN sanctions for Saudi Arabia and Iran who finance the conflict. They can also go after the **** who are buying the ISIS oil and close these operations down.
