Wait a min.... what puffing of feathers?
I was against strikes and I still am, how does that make me gloating or puffed up about innocent people being at risk or killed?
Why do I get the impression I'm subtly being accused of something here.... don't skirt all around the houses Ammi please I would appreciate a bit of honesty as to who is getting the full on finger wag.
The airstrikes sicken me, the realisation by some that they could have made a bad situation 100 times worse sickens me, misinformation sickens me.
Of course there's no way this could be aimed at anyone in particular really, that said I think that those who were against initially are totally justified in criticising what was agreed that day and there should be no shame in admitting they feel it was the wrong decision based on the reports so far.
