It wasn't 'thoughts' Nicky,they had intelligence and proof.

Evidence of WMD? ..Oh then drone away!!

Terrorists can dislike and attack other terrorists, that's why there's so much turmoil in the middle east...

how did it tiurn out as it was your labour party who was in charge of the UK?

You think your conservative party wouldn't have followed the same path when only 2 voted against it and 146 for it? That's cute.

The Iraq war and the current Iran situation are completely different. For one thing there is hard evidence that Iran ARE developing nuclear weapons. There is hard evidence that they are a terrorist state

Ahhh some sense. Why is it that the same people who are so vocal about the way this country conducts itself, but are now doing their best to portray Iran like they're some kind of innocent victim.

There were comparisons drawn between the female imprisoned in Cyprus with Nazanin Ratcliffe, who's imprisoned in Iran. And how it's all Boris's fault. It's not. It's the corrupt, archaic regime in Iran.

they were not in power and the PM was labour person Tony Blair

not a great time for the labour party tbh and this is their legacy

that isnt cute, its real and dangerous

:skull:

They are expanding the nuclear program because Trump and the US backed out of the deal (that Iran absolutely were sticking by), and Iraq were also sold as a terrorist state with the US government falsely linking them to 9/11 repeatedly. No one is saying it's the same situation. I'm saying the situations are irrelevant, because the US has a history of doing the same **** around the world regardless of the situation.

As you're referencing a post I made, without quoting me :smug:, then I feel free to address this without any tears needing to be shed. I didn't say it was Boris' fault, I said he put his foot in it and made her situation far worse as Boris' words were used at her trial.

I swear Trump could **** a cat and people would defend it, saying it was a terrorist cat or something like that

He's a feline womaniser.

I read in the Guardian yesterday that Iran’s “half-million-strong armed services are the
most potent military force the US has faced since confronting the Chinese People’s
Volunteer Army more than 60 years ago in Korea”. I don’t think so. That was a conflict in
which perhaps 2.5 million people lost their lives. What the West is dealing with here is a
hostile regional power that has literally got away with murder and never reciprocated any
goodwill we have shown. We have let it run rogue for too long. Mr Trump won’t thank me
for saying it, but he has just struck a blow for the rules-based international order.

And I swear Trump could kill Satan and still be the bad guy.:hehe:

The irony of that post is that of course 95% of the forum dont care what he does they hate him as he is rich, white old and American

:joker:

He launched a drone strike to kill someone in a country America wasnt at war with.

He's most certainly not the good guy.

As is Bernie Sanders, but I don't dislike him. I have a problem with trumps sexual assaults, locking kids in cages, trying to ban muslims, his penchant for white nationalism, attempting to take health care away from millions of people. Not because of skin color, wealth, or nationality.

well you must be in the 5% slim....

Hunter-killer drone struck at 230mph


[ Qassem Soleimani, 62, was targeted as he was leaving Baghdad airport in his car
A near-silent US MQ-9 Reaper drone launched the laser-guided Hellfire missile
Soleimani was under near-constant surveillance by US, Saudi and Israeli forces
He had survived several assassination attempts over the past two decades]

Personally I haven't portrayed the power structure in Iran as innocent, the people are the victims... Let's get that right.
I have every right to criticise how this country conducts itself let's also clarify that.

I drew comparisons because the people we have in power cannot be trusted with delicate negotiation...they have bulls in a China shop mentality. And are so obsessed with their own power and importance that they are putting the world at risk.

:clap1: :clap1:

Mike Pompeo has expressed disappointment with European reaction to the US killing of the Iranian general Qassem Suleimani, suggesting that the UK, France and Germany had not been sufficiently supportive.

The US secretary of state compared the European response unfavourably with US “partners in the region”, a likely reference to Israel, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, which Pompeo had consulted after the Suleimani assassination.

“I spent the last day-and-a-half, two days, talking to partners in the region, sharing with them what we were doing, why we were doing it, seeking their assistance. They’ve all been fantastic,” Pompeo told Fox TV. “And then talking to our partners in other places that haven’t been quite as good

why would Israel be happy about US causing possibly more trouble for them from Iran :conf:

You see this was for me the reason we were extracted from Europe.. ( there was a 'referendum' yada yada) .. we are aligning with 'partners' like SA, Israel and UAE. Except do we really want to, this response suggests not. Shiz just got real.. it will be both interesting and terrifying to see which way we go.
