  1. sure, but bear in mind I'm not an international security expert so for every 1 of my ill-conceived suggestions there'll be 100 good ones. remove the demand by supplying their customers increase pressure on the countries who turn a blind eye to the routes they use operatives take out key personnel in that process operatives take out nefarious customers until the risk is not worth the reward manipulate markets so legal purchase of oil is more desirable those are some ideas off the top of my head that would lead to fewer innocent people losing their lives & less senseless destruction of natural resources and as I said I'm no security expert. I'd wager that there are people on here, who also aren't security experts, who could come up with better ideas than bombing the shit out of an oilfield to make fat rich white men richer and fat angry poverty stricken white men feel powerful.
  2. Are you serious? Those are the only 2 ways to stop ISIS's oil revenue streams? Jesus you're bloodthirsty.
  3. Of course they want more countries the corrupt aresholes. Fingers crossed the FIFA that emerges from the investigations by the Swiss & US authorities will be sufficiently different from the current coterie that we'll see real change and the end of this kind of self-serving bullshit.
  4. That's what I'm talking about when I said diplomacy. Strangle the life out of ISIS revenue streams, foster good relations with the civilians by providing sanctuary, security and support. Or y'know justify those £800,000 missiles you've got cooped up in a warehouse somewhere, by annihilating an oil field.
  5. Who mentioned diplomacy with ISIS? And of course we have time. What's the rush? There will be terrorist attacks whether we blow shit up or not, so why not improve our security & try something that doesn't cost the lives of innocent civilians which will undoubtedly swell the ranks of ISIS and their ilk?
  6. It's not a binary state though is it? The options aren't Airstrikes/Nothing. There are an unfathomable number of options available to us.
  7. It's bonkers though. The enemies we want to fight, will not be defeated by conventional warfare. It's wetwork and diplomacy and policing and long-term plans. Fucking childish to just expect blowing the shit out of an already devastated country is going to do anything but foster further resentment and animosity towards the West.
  8. Bit of a prick? How? You're the one backing Airstrikes that your own dear leader has said would be fruitless. You're just blindly drinking the Tory kool-aid and reciting the party rhetoric. It's pathetic. "Bit of a prick"? Christ, draw a line down your scalp and you and a bellend are indistinguishable.
  9. Imagine being comfortable with the murder of civilians just because it'll make relations with Russia a little warmer. smh Your "best PM in my life" stated that Russia bombing syria wouldn't work & would only radicalise the region further. How are our bombs different? Do they cough awkwardly, apologise, and then vaporise hospitals?
  10. The gays? fwiw, the most frustrating thing is that this club would be so easily to run well. It's already got a global brand you can sell to sponsors, it's already got a loyal and populous support, it's already got a core of top half players*, training ground is of a high standard and has a large catchment area to find young talent in an area that is passionate about the sport. *who are mostly playing shit at the moment, admittedly.
  11. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-northamptonshire-34933345 I got to "The former special constable " before any sympathy abandoned me. Anyone sitting at 50mph in the middle lane deserves to wake up in an Eastern European ice bath, two haphazard lines of stitches around the small of their back and a cactus up their arse.
  12. Christ, that'd be the worst thing for trans-Atlantic relations since [ insert your submission here]
  13. You reckon they'll get John Carver to replace him on Monday Night Football?
  14. Not sure the detector will pick them up mate, but crack on regardless.
  15. The good guys dress in black remember that, just in case we ever face to face and make contact
  16. I can understand the reservations, how does little Miss ParkLife feel about it? If she's excited and if you & Mrs P are reassured after plenty of research on the company, what's the harm?
  17. Faked. Jet fuel can't melt steel beams.
  18. It's really hard to shelve my contempt for Sissoko, but his form makes dropping him out of spite impossible.
