What A Bunch of Mugs

The Labour Government has announced that they would be sending around 650 members of the Black Watch to one of the most unstable parts of Iraq. A place where the local population has been enraged and radicalised by the heavy handed tactics of the US Army. The PM says that they will be home by Christmas. Some of them will . In boxes.

Leaving the humanitarian issue aside that our troops will be covering for an assult that will kill thousands more civilians it is the most stupid action of any British Government since we stumbled into World War One. Weren't our boys going to be "Home by Christmas" then too?

The Labour Party has been suckered into supporting George Bush's government two weeks before an election when his poll ratingsd were falling. God! How Karl Rove must be laughing. What a bunch of limey suckers. It will be scripted into Bush's stump speech within the hour. "Look-I told ya' We are not alone!" will be the refrain. So, if George just wins and takes the world to the edge the Parliamentary Labour Party can go to bed thinking. "It was us that won it for George".

I just feel really ashamed that I did my bit to help them get elected in 1997. I wish I hadn't bothered.
