This is not looking very good.

NOTE: Keep the discussion to a safe level if you wish to post.

Uh oh is exact my words

Cheers Theis

Hmm, this wont last, Bad Katahu.
No comment really, but we all see the final result of it.

Purely political.

I'll stay out. Yes, Doug I really will!

Ben, for once Doug isn't around all the time you hold back?

Respect man, respect!  ;)

You wanted me to post a load of "rot" then? I'm not.

Trouble in the middle east!? your kidding?!!?

This sort of thing has been going on since 1979 chaps Maybe if you spent more time reading and less time watching rather second rate news channels......

Yes but its been a while since the leader has made remarks like that. Plus other recent events.

Nah it is just a long time since there has been such a slow news day that they journos have felt it worthy of filling a short slot.....

I feel so sad...  :'(  :(
Please give me some more of the "happy-stuff", Katahu.

Well call them "Happy Pills" my man.

EDIT: As for the news, just letting you guys know. I remember back in my early days I use to post links like these to certain news sites. Now, for some reason, I'm no longer in the mood to post such anymore .

*Kat pops a tablet of happy pills*

Officially, this will be my last post of such things in the news. Well, unless the news becomes rather... interesting...

[NEWS FLASH]

Reporter: Reports are just coming in about a crazed English man flying a spitfire in an inverted position at extremely low altitudes and flying under various bridges. The FAA hasn't commented yet on how to capture the pilot as the Spitfire appears to be highly mobile and can flight back like hell if provoked

Nah it is just a long time since there has been such a slow news day that they journos have felt it worthy of filling a short slot.....

True, but considering the various other things they could have reported on. I mean they have banned a local fly past of 2 spitfires on the 11th of november citing danger issues, despite it having occured god knows how many times in the past. Now thats a real story. LOL.

Happy stories don't sell papers Craig
Oh and the FAA will never find my secret lair

Yes but its been a while since the leader has made remarks like that. Plus other recent events.

This is an incredible statement to make. Just imagine if Israel had said the same thing about Iran? - You have to remember this is just the Leader spouting what is the Govornment line, and has been so for years, from the "revolution" in fact. (1978iirc ?)

These people need to grasp the concept of peaceful co-existence!

It also depends on how you quantify what the real world is. Remember you are talking about an area of the world where civilisation was born. It is also the religious centre for at least three major religions.

The UK has a shorter civilised history and the US are still babies in comparison. Who is to say that how they behave is wrong? We are judging them by our standards - who is to say that they cannot judge us by their standards?

As for placating them and reducing the middle east to dust - do you have any idea how many Christians, Jews and Muslims around the world that might object to their religious centres being reduced to dust? A short answer would be approximately over 2 billion.

The middle east is a hugely difficult situation made even worse by western interference. It is a cross roads in the world and wherever you get a cross roads you will have people trying to control it.

The Afghanis poked the USSR and the vietnamese poked the US. Both times the major player lost dramatically. Again we call them nutters but what standard are we using?

For every picture/tv report etc you can show me showing Iranian nutters I could show you one of us western nutters. Including both of our respective "leaders" .

I would be very interested to understand the true Iranian peoples perspective but I fear that in their culture and society they may very well be prevented from expressing it.
