No Military Intervention On Syria From The Uk

[Born Hunter 17,751]

we`ve already dispatched tornados to Cyprus--------just in case..

 

Typhoons in an air defence role. Our Cyprus base is a bit close to Assad's military assets to leave unprotected. A couple of Tornado's were ripping over Lincs yesterday before the MPs voted, no doubt gettin in a bit of practice.

 

The yanks are perfectly capable of handling this alone, they only wanted a coalition to give political support, militarily they are more than capable.

As a piece of technology, it's awesome. Just a shame that mankind's emotional and spiritual evolution hasn't kept pace with science.

Its about time we stopped Fighting in Wars that dont directly effect our security.

Its all a smokescreen by Goverments to keep the price of Oil high, Grab more Oil.

To give us something to worry about so that the Bigger picture at home is Ignored.

 

Stop Interfereing in Hostilities abroad

Stop ALL Foreign Aid

Sort out OUR Economy ,

Thus sorting out our

NHS

ROADS

RAIL

SEA DEFENCES

ARMED FORCES (no cutbacks on equipment)

ILEGAL IMMIGRATION

the list is endless and the 7 billion per year Foreign aid we give away should be spent at Home.

Then how much would we be saving if we wernt Fighting on Foreign shores and throwning bombs around ect.

 

This country could be put back on the right track within two years.

Stop being RACIST

It seems to me that Cameron badly misjudged the public mood and massively over-played his hand. He is unpopular and wanted his 'Falklands moment', but I'm for once, proud to say that democracy clipped the wings of war-hungry politicians ! I also think this has made it more difficult for Obama to act - other allies may now be more willing to stand back. I am not, by any means a pacifist, but I'm glad this has happened because........

 

1.There is no solid evidence that a chemical attack actually took place.

2.If such an attack did take place, there is no solid evidence as to who were the perpetrators.

3.A world super-power is already involved - pressure must be put on the Russians to reduce or stop military supplies and support to Assad.

4.The Arab League should be playing a much more prominent part in diplomatic measures.

5.It's difficult to see what could actually be done........Syria has s200 SAM missiles - a more than adequate air defence system - as well as a large and well-equipped army that isn't going to turn tail and run easily.

6.Assad, far from being the demon of the Middle East, has many allies. The Iranian 'parliament' was broadcast chanting "Death to America" the other day,for instance.

7.Before we give any material support to 'the rebels', we should have a firm idea of who 'they' actually are. Hezbollah,al-Qaeda and other Jihadi groups are involved, on both sides of the conflict. We could well be supplying our enemies !

 

Sorry for going on.............
