Yes Julie but you want a Utopian situation and that isn't going to happen.

Actually ... leaving out the usual mud pie throwing antics over Zionism, scumbag party or Stalin ... UJ has got a point.

Except for one thing.
Principles, and sticking to them cost money. Billions of mega bucks and fawning sycophancy is at stake.

Where would the West be without the rich Saudis.

The Saudis have been buying up London since the 1970's. I doubt anyone has got enough dosh to buy it back now. Houses and apartments for £43million narrows the market right down

Re: European Union arms embargo on Saudi Arabia

Hello you have lost me there .
What have Jordanians got to do with anything ?
No one is bombing them,
Indeed we give them a lot of arms.
Of course they are human beings and some very nice ones too I know as I lived there for three years.

Re: European Union arms embargo on Saudi Arabia

Guess who these people are ? Having a holiday in Turkey.





Can't really call them people:

They are : The terrorists of Jaish Al_Islam who came out from the E.Ghouta after the surrender deal.
The salaries of its terrorists were paid by Saudi Arabia and other Gulf countries. These Terrorists had killed more than 12 thousand civilians in #Damascus with its missiles and bombings.

Re: European Union arms embargo on Saudi Arabia

from the beginning of time when it was pronounced that Ishmael would be a leader of great nations but they would also fight each other like wild donkeys of the desert - and so they do - once allies in Islam now sworn enemies - Shiite fight Sunnis to the death - sometimes in the same town - same street but on different sides.

I suppose when you think about it maybe selling arms is not a bad thing - if the aim of Islam is to take over UK and elsewhere - maybe killing a few thousand [well not us of course - we sell they kill] improves the odds of surviving an Islamic onslaught??

Isn't that also a police tactic when called out to stop local fighting - let them kick shLLte out of each other and then we go in and pick up the arms and legs??

ps: oh by the way Julie before ya get too upset with it all - this event and similar ones was decreed by your god and my god and everybodies god - he/she said it would happen and so it has and as someone said once even Hitler went to heaven!!

oh and if ya an atheist you still have a god - you just need new specs !

I tend to ignore you but WTF are you on about.

But choses not to reply when your drunk and your spelling and grammar goes out of the window.

But this time I did but am a bit bored.


How about putting your point over when sober.
