Do you mean this post of mine where I asked the question huck?

No, it was the one where wanted too bet me she would gone by year end, all proceeds to go to the children's trust.

Please don't take offence, I like people making predictions, but IME they are generally miles off

Are you as sure about that as you were the Conservatives winning by a street a few weeks ago?

 

I'll have a friendly bet that she doesn't see this year out. Looser pays a tenner to the children's trust.

You are indeed correct. My apologies. I note that you prediction in a previous post was miles off.

A bunch of cowards ?  What you gonna do ? roll your sleeves up , put your gum shield in and say bring it on nuclear war head ?

For sure, my predictions are just as far off as everyone else, thats why I  tend not to try these days.

 

I've no idea how things will pan out, I do know that all through my childhood the end of the world was about to happen, yet I'm still here at the ripe old age of 47, so I'm thinking things will work out, just as they always have before.

NATO: US, Britain and France had "no option"

Jens Stoltenberg, NATO chief, said "before the attack took place last night, NATO allies exhausted all other possible ways to address this issue to the UNSC by diplomatic and political means.

"But since this was blocked by Russia, there was no other alternative.

"I am not saying that the attacks last night solved all problems but compared to the alternative to do nothing this was the right thing to do."

 

Would NATO have enough evidence before them or are they winging it too?

I'll face up to our commitments and face that mug down.  I wouldn't be crying that it might end in a nuclear holocaust.  Cowardice is failing to act on account of being scarred of the consequences.. bravery is standing up for your rights no matter the cost..   

 

This bombing raid on Syria is a shot across the bows of Putin's meddling. his move next, lets see if he has the bottle to act..

What are " our commitments " ? If there was any way you could avoid a nuclear holocaust ( assuming , god forbid , you were in charge )  would you take it ? or would you say fuck it lets stick it to that " mug "
