The neocons want to abolish the RAF.
Colonel Collins is a signatory to the Henry Jackson Society, which calls for a single EU defence "capability" under overall American command and run by the Germans, although that role might now have passed to the French in these days of Sarkozy. There will be, we see, no room for the RAF in that "capability".
But by choosing to serve operationally in the RAF, Prince William has put the kibosh on all of this for anything like the foreseeable future. He has thus proved that he is a real chip of the solidly paleocon, and therefore socially rather conscientious, old block. This Kingdom and Commonwealth are doubly blessed, to have two such splendid future Kings.
"The neocons want to abolish the RAF."
ReplyDeleteYou mean, one neocon wants to abolish the RAF, and was unable to get his piece published anywhere except an online magazine nobody reads.
If one of them says it, then they have all said it. The beast may have many gobs, but it's still just the one beast.
ReplyDeleteAnd it's not the number of readers where things like The First Post are concerned. It's who they are. Just look at who writes for it. And I don't mean me!

ReplyDeleteWhy, do you write for it?
Occasionally.
