High Spirits - hilarious. Keep the day job though, unless it involves comedy writing...
Question is, if we don't adopt a moral standpoint, on what basis are we intervening, and how will our intervention improve our security? As previous posters have noted these are very valid questions given our on-going commitment in Afghanistan and recent involvement in Libya.
I must admit I get very uncomfortable when I see our boys apparently acting as judge, jury and executioner, on the basis of some pretty threadbare evidence (witness Chris Terrill's on-going Channel 5 documentary on the Marines deployment in Afghanistan).
High Spirits will probably now call me a bleeding heart liberal.
