Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Perhaps, the Arab League is more reflective especially as it is closer to their homes.

There seems a general way to change what is happening in Syria and REGIME CHANGE.

(It is bloody stupid not to accept this and hypocrisy or lying to say that this is not the ultimate aim.)

The problem is how to do it, avoiding the probability of increasing the death toll and destruction of infrastructure and the cost of supporting a destroyed "social" structure and avoiding replacement of government with what we think "worse".

Also, if we "invade" Syria (sending in missiles is and invasion) we have to accept responsibility for the peace and that means "feet" or more "feet" on the "ground".

This is why it is necessary to try and develop an "international armed police force" under the jurisdiction of the United Nation in one way or another to intervene effectively in future areas.

HOW????????

Utopia - will never happen!

RICHARD BACON has given all the answers the ARAB LEAGUE should take the lead role then we could support them
but alas we know they will do nothing they want the christen countrys to do their dirty work

the silence from all these muslim leaders speaks VOLUMES are they MUTE
and can only speak to attack the west

would like the answer to the question

Paddy Pantsdown on Sky News this morning looked like he was about to burst into tears and talking drivel - along the lines of what was the point now in having a military force in this country.

countries against the uk

Russia
iran
Pakistan
india
china
yemin
Egypt
Iraq
afgan

Skinny.

Utopia - will never happen!

Agreed, but you can move nearer to it.

As a little boy I can remember many saying that Everest will never be climbed.

Then along came Hillary.


(The nice one.)

LOL Fred. Was he a bloke aswel?.

not one muslim country as spoken about taking action over Syria
does that not speak volumes

cnbc

the arab league do not want to take any action

Tanker,

I would suggest, that if one "asks" the Arab League for help, rather than telling them what they "SHOULD" do, they may be helpful and constructive.

(A long time ago, when I was told by somebody what they thought their "rights" were, I often asked whether their rights included mine. )

Ironies of history: last time a UK PM was defeated on a war motion was 1782, when MPs voted to stop fighting American war of independence.

Parliament made a good decision in 1782?

I knew they had done it sometime, or other.

8-)

Not since 1956?

I feel better as the MPs don't just follow the media.

why are these muslim leaders silent why do they not help their brothers
or do they only speak to attack the west .
the muslim leaders are happy for wars it gives them POWER that is fact they love wars

Don't forget the Labour rebels.

It is the first time since the 1956 Suez crisis that an opposition has failed to support Government plans for a deployment of the armed forces.
