That's exactly what we should have done (imo). I guess you must feel different. Sort of like a world policeman or something. That always works out well in my experience.

Easy tiger

It's just illegal isn't it. Where was the provocation from Venezuela or Iran? There was absolutely none, this is simply about the US wanting to send a place into chaos in order to effect regime change as usual, and Israel wanting to stick it to another of their sworn enemies. It stinks. And...

Possibly the drone was launched before the puppet spoke though, to be fair to you. Must have been a close call between the chicken and the egg.

It wasn't, it happened around midnight last night local time. The feckwit announced the UK was joining the illegality earlier in the evening. We should have kept right out of it and Starmer has put more lives in danger by his actions, not less.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15604741/Strong-explosion-heard-near-RAF-base-Cyprus-reports.html Akrotiri hit by drones apparently, after Starmer authorises use of base. Quelle surprise.

I nearly bought a car there once. I mean I'm as in the dark about the likely degree of response as everyone else, I'm only guessing that any western asset in the area will now become a legitimate Iranian reprisal target. As PV says though, the piracy prize for the US far exceeds even all the...

I think a lot depends on the next few days. If Israel continues to attack repeatedly then surely they must be Irans major focus for retaliation you would think? I think Iran has already struck at the nearest US bases in Bahrain though, so I doubt the US will get away with this scot free...

I served at Akrotiri during the war with Iraq. The yanks basically turned it into a forward operating base for them. They lengthened the runway for their bombers, built tented villages, basically took over the place as is their way. Iran is a much more powerful beast than Iraq. 100% the...

No need to get offensive sunshine. I've had more patriotism in my little finger than you had in the past, just because it isn't there any longer doesn't mean you can open your trap and gob off. Well you can of course, but is it advisable? I'm not so sure these days. Someone less mannered...

President Putin to you, oik. I'm only joking with you. Maybe I'm old fashioned but I prefer to live in a world where we aren't all divided and killing each other to make a few old men rich. Each to their own though, believe the BBC if it makes you feel better or morally superior. I couldn't...

You'd be surprised

I bet Venezuela wishes it had tried that one now

They are kind of a bully to be fair. I'm also aware this is not the most high level political argument ever. Difficult to take sides, it's not a football match is it.

Hopefully nobody! Let individual countries resolve their own issues surely, no? I can see we will never agree about this already haha

100%. Going to be interesting watching the narrative explained on the British Bullshit Channel later. Might have to watch it for once. Won't they be conflicted? On one hand they hate Trump, but on the other this sort of stuff makes for good TV.

This is exactly why I try to avoid the political sections of football forums. Who made America the worlds policeman.

The wife is out there at the moment, just texted me that she saw a fireball in the sky earlier. I guess it is only 150 miles away so seems believable. You could see the bases as legitimate Iranian targets if the US aggression continues. Time will tell whether it escalates to that level but...

The West should be nowhere near it, why it is always them f***ing up the world.

No dramas at all, made me laugh 🤣 At 57 years old I think they've done a pretty damn good job of tidying me up, they certainly had a job on their hands!
