This isn't going to end well!

I’ve a feeling ever bigger & more dangerous cleverer drones will sadly be our future much as sky fi films have always predicted

Maybe? We can only guess its scary

A flu released from a Chinese lab brought our country to a halt for 12 months, didn't see bombs or bullets defeat it.

Didn't exactly help the Chinese iether, did it. They should have got something from the Ukrainian Bioweapons lab to use instead.

Chinese haven't done bad, the soaring inflation in the West which Covid caused, meant we are more reliant on their goods.

They won a war without firing a single bullet even got rid of Boris for us with the Covid parties lol.

Not long to wait Brian. 2029. Skynet. If the world doesn't end before then that is the year. At least it will solve the problem of no sale of ICE cars from 2030. And even MInette will not have t worry about farmers being net zero by 2040

Much of the world will see the obvious Western hypocrisy in making Putin a war criminal whilst supporting the undoubted war crimes of Netanyahu, nothing ever changes!

Let's ignore the facts lol. Ask Boris how he feels about Covid, he lost his job.

So you don't even know the difference between chemical warfare and biological warfare, yet can confidently predict the future of warfare?

Have you been on the bag tonight? Stick to drink it just destroys the liver.

Drugs don't work. they just make it worse as the song goes .

That the best you got?

D-. Must try harder.

When you see what Rhodesia has become was he not right.
I had understood he was prepared to agree to a gradual extension of the franchise and that some black voters always had the franchise. I stand to be corrected on this if I'm wrong. I had also understood that Smith was well regarded by many black people in Rhodesia. I am not sure if I am correct in any of this but await your response. Rhodesia ceased to exist when I was very young but i have recently developed an interest in it due to the music of John Edmond

It's really a case of you can never say never. Israel will always prevail against the Palestinians but they will always live in fear of them doing the same again because of the level of hatred they create. I reckon it's time for another course of action which means like it or not talking. We were in Zimbabwe a couple of years ago and visited a school and in the chapel were pictures of all the ex pupils who were killed in the bush war. No doubt if your son was killed you'd want vengeance but I reckon time heals.

Seen any news from the ICC about the Hamas leaders and the events of 7/10? Me neither. You won't find them on the FBI most wanted list or Europols either. Weird that.

Question for Dan & Swarfmonkey and anyone else who knows these things? Now that they've gone in, how long, realistically, is it going to take the IDF to find and eliminate 40000 terrorists?

Anyone that they kill will be called a terrorist regardless, how could it be different.

We know that's not true already, which is really my point. If realistically it's a 12 month job, what's the plan to get those women & kids to safety and give them a bit of shelter and some decent grub?

They are not going to do that

More the kind of question my older bro would be at home with, but one thing I do know is this (using the aftermath of the Munich massacre as a template). It may take the Israelis 20 years to track down and eliminate those who organised it, those who executed it, and those who funded it, but they'll get them all eventually.

Hi Bri. So, if your are making this comparison I assume you can remind us all of the time when before the hostilities, the Ukrainia’s ventured into Russia and tortured and killed 1 and a half thousand Russians?
Of course you can’t as you are continuing to make your usual pointless criticisms
BTW, for what it’s worth. I don’t support Israel killing 2 million folk in Gaza

Each case should be judged on it's own merits & for the West to support Netanyahu doing every bit as evil as Putin is total hypocrisy & makes the West a laughing stock to so many countries we don't agree with.

A lot of them will melt away to Iran or Syria once the frying pan gets too hot. That is the nature of guerrilla warfare. Israel may well use air power to try to smash any vehicles or people on foot at known border crossing points or post surveillance over known choke points- that will depend on the terrain and topography. It's the same kind of thing the USA used in Afghanistan, at least in the earlier points of their invasion.

How did that turn out for the Americans.
