- Go to Iran better be careful
Yes, wislon, that is a fact. So we can't fight Iran with any type
of major ground action until we have totally bombed them into submission.

The UK is running out of soldiers
Check the forces websites - the government are still cutting back and we are spread very thin around the world.

On the Iranian stuff, you are right but there are one or two things I will want to bring if I may. The Europeans, that is an overstatement. What is masqurading as representatives of the continent are three countries. France Britain and Germany. Anyway Britain joint the lot half heartedly because Jacque Chirac and Moboutou Schroeder had carried out a smear campaign against Britain because it supported the overthrow of Saddam who was the friend Chirac and Schroeder. I think Germany has changed since God Blessed them recently with a nice leader and Britain shall always be with America now in Iraq on next in Iran and Syria. As concerns Iran, a ground offensive will take just 30 days or below to drive the mullahs away. No body wants to die for dictators.

Fantastic comment my friend. Already Nigeria has paid back $ 6 billion being part of her debts to the Paris Club. It was a deal agreeed with creditor nations. I think this falls in line with your philosophy. But Nigeria is richer than all subsaharan countries excluding ofcourse South Africa that is the richest on the continent. What should be done to those other nations with no possibility of ever paying? That will be what I will be attempting to treat today. And I hope that you will read it and I will be gald to read what your thoughts are. Once gain thank you and Remain Blessed.

Thanks for the comment kiwi.
Europe stood on the sidelines and watched as Saddam thumbed his nose for years on UN sanctions. From a legal standpoint the first Gulf War was never ended. Iraq never complied with the wishes of the UN. Iran will do the same. They will only bow to brute force. And the US is the only player in the game with a little help from England willing to do that. The US can't fight another ground war. Iran knows that also. They are playing poker in that the Europeans won't fight and the US can't fight. Someone is going to have to flinch. I don't think sanctions or diplomacy will ever work in the Middle East. I wish they would, but they have never worked before and they probably won't work now.

Oh joy to the world lol. Seriously, the Europeans are not being weak they are being realistic. Do you honestly think the US could do that and not provoke the Shia in Iraq? If the US touched Iran the insurgency in Iraq would be worse than it is now. More troops of every creed would come home in body-bags. A recipie for disaster.
