In Plane Sight

I hope that this time, even David Cameron will face facts.

If we are at war with IS, then we are at war with Turkey, with Saudi Arabia, with Qatar, with Bahrain, with Kuwait, with Oman, and with the Emirates.

But we are at war alongside (indeed, for) Assad, alongside Russia, alongside Iran, alongside Hezbollah, and probably alongside China.

So, in the light of these facts, are we at war with IS? That is not a rhetorical question.

  1. I think you're referring to Obama.

    Obama: 'we will win and groups like Isil will lose'

    ""Obama again criticises Russia. He says Russian strikes against moderate opposition only bolster Isis, which he refers to as Isil. He reiterates the need to move away from Syrian president Assad in the Vienna talks.""

    1. He hasn't long left. Then it will be Her, heaven help us. But we can cross that bridge when we come to it.

  2. She will be Democrat leader (the fact she's female and a radical feminist guarantees that).

    The Democrats have now become the first party in the wotld to have a system of Affirmative Action for choosing Presidential candidates.

    Their last one was chosen because of his skin colour and this one because of her gender.

    1. She'll be President. It is now part of the Constitution that the Democratic nominee becomes President.

      So much so, that the Republican Party plays the whole process entirely for laughs, with joke candidates only.
