Glad to see a few more deserving individuals receive some kind attention and a special delivery. :ok:

Breakfast today: good news of the pre-emptive killing [not "assassination" which is usually reserved for important people].

LB to Mrs LB "I bet by lunchtime there will be predictable howls from the lefties".

Ticks box.

Please can we have one every breakfast, Prime Minister?

Well done, lads and lasses.

CoffmanStarter, That was quick!
Helmsman: "WTF did all those virgins suddenly appear from?"

On one hand we have the Prime Minister David Cameron saying;

"I am not prepared to stand here in the aftermath of a terrorist attack on our streets and have to explain to the House why I did not take the chance to prevent it when I could have done,” "

While on the other, we have the voice of the people, celebrity Jamelia on Loose Women saying;

"Killing anyone does not solve a problem"


I think I prefer one persons outlook on the future, than the others persons knowledge of the past.

A thought.

Some UK Laws are universal, to wit tax and sex.

In UK guns, such as AK 47 or RPGs are banned to British citizens. Make that law universal.

Equip drones with loud speakers and an Anne Shelton song - lay down your arms and surrender to me. The alternative to be Hellfire or Brimstone.

although some footage has been released to the media, it has not been verified as the actual strike in question.


would it be possible for the MOD to release the REAL thing??




I'd like to crack open a beer.....and have a good f**king laugh.




p.s, JIHADI JOHN...."keep watching the skies".

I would like to think that every time one of these slimeballs uses his iPhone, he risks receiving a Hellfire in response. Back to the original post, great result, a few more such achievements would not be to the detriment of the planets O2 depletion.

I've never understood why governments do this stuff then admit it. Just do it and keep quiet. What are they after, a shoulder to cry on because they had to do something nasty?

I think the only questions to be had are,

To the PM, why did it take so long for the Govt to get round to allowing HMF to 'deal' with the terrorists in a fitting manner.

And to Harriet H, taking your recent remarks in PMQ (when the 'hit' was announced) please explain what YOU would do if in power (lol), why and do you actually want to defend the country or just watch it all go down the pan?


Well done all and sundry involved, next one please.

FWIW, I do like the old 'think of doing something nasty to the UK' and in the course of time someone will quietly rock up and your existance on this planet will abruptly end. 'They' then quietly melt back into the background... Problem solved.

Of course there is the alternative of a few gunboats coming over the horizon one damp and cold morning, followed by 30 mins of 'fire for effect' onto the errant individual/house/village etc and retire for tea 'n' biccies empire stylee...

The only problem I have with using Reapers is that we don't get the chance to wrap the buggers in pig skin and bury them upside down, arse pointing at Mecca.

Couldn't agree more Dan.
Same should have applied in N Ireland.

And a note saying "No virgins for you then"

The Guardian leader, of course, takes the view that the country should not defend itself unless every action is publicly debated, scrutinised and democratically approved by honest working people. it quotes:

Yasmine Ahmed, director of Rights Watch (UK), said: “There is insufficient information in the public domain … to know whether the drone strikes that killed three individuals in Syria, including two British citizens, were done lawfully.

“These strikes set a dangerous precedent for UK government activity. The UK government can now kill at will with no oversight. If the only oversight for these actions is internal confidential government legal advice, which the British public never gets to see, that is no oversight at all. To take military action in the name of the British public and not fully inform the public about the legal basis for doing so is undemocratic.”

Ahmed said Rights Watch (UK) would support the families of the dead men if they wanted to bring legal actions for compensation against the government.

The problem with any detailed investigation by Parlaiment or the courts is that it will be very difficult to have a meaningful discussion without revealing our intelligence capabilities and that our our friends. I think the Prime Minister was right to announce these deaths and I hope it will have a corrosive, cancerous effect on ISIL. As was pointed out elsewhere, gone are the days of large ISIL convoys of Utes with black flags flying. That's just too vulnerable.

Guess the UK has the death penalty again.

Why is it that those who forever spout on about their human rights do not care a jot for the rights of everyone else?

"Who said whoosh ?"

Crump.

Job done !

Turning the Other Cheek ?
 

Re: Bleeding Hearts for an ex-ISIL (Good Riddance, say I !)

Seems that today's RAF is not immune from this egregious notion. My eye was caught by this link (copied from another of my Posts, about January on another Thread: it was an extract from the D.Tel. 9.1.15). "Combat Report" (Bold Text mine):

"The pair have said that one of their proudest moments to date involved helping to foil a rocket" (RPG ?) "attack on their base at Kandahar airfield in 2010. There was a high threat and the base was expecting an imminent attack after some men were spotted in a nearby ditch, setting up to fire a rocket at their accommodation block. They took the aircraft out to 15 miles from their position in the ditch and came down to low level, approaching at more than 500mph and as close to the Operational Low Flying minimum of 100 feet as possible, passing directly over them before heading into a steep climb. The rocket crew immediately scarpered in a truck and the pair felt they had made a tangible difference to protect their colleagues.
The intention is to always use the minimum force required to provide the effect needed by the guys on the ground".

Am I missing something here ? This was in 2010, and there was a war going on in Afghanistan (as we have 453 good reasons to remember). This is the enemy, and he is making ready to kill you (or some of your comrades) if he can. You are airborne in one of the RAF's most powerful weapons. You have a 27mm cannon.

You buzz him off (as I used to shift a flock of goats off my strip before landing). So that he can come back later and try again ? (Better luck next time ?)

Danny42C. :confused:

Who on here has a bleeding heart for ISIS - I suspect, nobody.

As for the the 453 good reasons not to forget - I'd like to think we will never forget.

But I am equally concerned most are forgetting the 763 that died fighting the same scum in Northern Ireland and when you add up the suicides/accidents the figure is in excess of 1100.

Nobody on here has a bleeding heart for terrorism - I'm just disgusted governments locked up British soldiers for what Mr Camoron now calls Article 51 justification.

Clearly we are all rejoicing in the extermination of these sub human scum. But two is a small but important first. I would like to see death on an industrial scale delivered to them, so we can all have a good laugh.
