    What part of good manners and civility don't you understand? Seriously I won't treat you fairly if you behave poorly towards me.
    And in any case it was justified under the right of self defence.
    And that's why I give up on you. If you can't be bothered then why should I?
    If you actually read 1441 then you'd know that it also relates to it's preceding resolutions which also back the case for military action.
    I actually doubt if you're from Kazakhstan
    And I've seen nothing but simple mindedness from you.

    And?
    We're talking about international sanction of the invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan.
    No there was legal framework for it.
    What?! Our actions in the Balkans averted a genocide.
    We didn't arm them. Yes we gave Syria's rebels non lethal aid in the form of trucks, solar batteries and communications equipment. Not rifles or rpg's.
    And it was the same for Libya as well.

    I'm not going to accept being bombarded by wikipedia links as factual information mostly because it's unreliable.

    :) you insulted me in multiple posts, the moment I respond in kind (barely) you whine like a spoiled baby...What is it with you brits, living in glass houses, throwing stones and complaining when broken glass hurts you?

    Please quote a single word in the resolutions authorizing the British military to invade a country half the world away. TIA

    And that's all, about his awareness related with geopolitics ...

    About his opinions, what I can say is that he sounds a postmodernist with a kind of sense of guilty for what UK did in the past. Curious state of mind. He was part of that system and that system acted like all the power systems along the entire human history.

    Personally he is entitled to his opinion and he can become a nice anti-imperialist, but I don't share this and I think he is a bit out of context.

    These posts are very insulting and indicate that you are a bigot of the first order ergo I've no obligation to treat you with a sense of fairness or civility.
    Please explain to me the point in debating anything with you if you're going to behave this poorly?
    And as I said it's justified under resolution 1441 and it's preceding resolutions as well as the right of self defence.
    I'm not going to do the work for you.

    Thank you. That's what I've being trying to say about Craig Murray but so many people treat his words as if they are gospel.
    Well unfortunately that's the fashion nowadays.
    What people fail to realise is that human society isn't a case of absolute right and wrong; It's a great big grey area but there you go it's just easier to use a black and white mentality.
    Everyone has the right to an opinion and to express it as long as they're willing to be respectful.

    I'm starting to wonder if Roosevelt was following the British in WWII when he bombed Germany. I say this because I noticed their gross indifference towards human life... even the lives of their own men. One fallen British pilot in WWI was going to be court marshaled and shot because he left behind his machine gun.

    How can honesty in admitting one's lack of morals make them morally superior. Wouldn't that be an oxymoron? :confuse:

    Do you have sources to back this up? Or is this just another myth you like to throw around like the one where there was a vote in the US for german to become the official language?

    Aha, a tacit admision that Israel and US are [Rogue State, Danger to World]

    Throwing stones while living in a glass house implies you are as bad as the ones you critisise. Therefore British are bad but so are US and Israel :applause:

    Craig Murray has been outspoken since before he was bounced out of his ambassadorship he's nobody's fashion victim. Be more respectful of his opinion.

    If you live in a glass house you shouldn't throw stones. Period. The outcome will be identical whether you throw stones at bad guys or good. Duh.

    Then you should know Irish whiskey is better than Scottish whiskey :alcoholic:
    But if you are patriotic you might ask for a Scottish whiskey when you happened to be at a bar in Ireland?

    - - - Updated - - -

    I googled the definition of the phrase and -
    Definition of people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones in English: people (who live) in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. proverb You shouldn't criticize others when you have similar faults of your own.

    the scottish are the masters of very strong liquor, contrary to popular thought about the irish, we all bow to your wisdom. the irish are more into their lighter ales, which for me is no major issue. If you want to see the damaging affects of strong liquor look no further than alex ferguson, his aggression, his pre- mature dementia and his nose.

    The similarity is based on the perception of people in glass houses, of course they criticize because they think others are at fault, that doesn't not mean their perception is actually correct.

    You made a freudian slip. You [subconciously] admitted US/Israel are rogue states which are dangerous to the world. Period. :roflol:
