Re British armaments. We seem to have some "bad apples" in the system. By that I mean people in high places of management or as government officials. Totally incompetent. They have to go first and quickly.

i.e. we need to fix the disease not just the symptoms

The problems with our armed forces go much further then that of course.

One has to ask why meat is imported from Argentina, sodden with foot and mouth disease, while army bases in the UK are surrounded with farms that cannot sell their sheep for even 50p a piece? The recent "foot and mouth" debacle (which started from army canteen food) was covered up of course and senior officials tried to blame the source of the disease on remains of exotic Chinese food. The incompetence was so rife though, that lie was blown open.

(this btw has been the proven link. The story has been buried, I have the original links on FADG thread, cant find them just now)

So, screw Saddam H. We have a germ warfare carrying enemy within are own country. Destroying are armed forces and our very way of life. It's called the British government and the the attendent civil service.

I am also alarmed that the likes of John Major has been given a cushy little number at the Carlyle group. The Tories now show how the British government really works. Several senior ex ministers and the party chairmen are now placed correctly. In jail. John Major is the guy who stage managed the countries "Mad Cow" disease.

There has to be several more elections and British Political parties destroyed before this nation can go and fight any war.

The British government cannot even help the many casualties from the last war there.

The British Army needs to put a squad of snipers in the visitors gallery of the Houses of Parliament. It can take out a good number of the Nations enemies that way. They need to also visit the board rooms of several British Companies...

Iraq is just a diversion from the real issues imho. That plus "the butler did it" news in the UK.
