    Ohh and that makes it ok does it? So our troops get sent into a war based on a tissue of lies and spin, badly kitted out, but that is OK because they died for that nice Mr Blair. Blair is a w@nnker through and through and his lasting legacy to this nation should be the complete and utter **** up he and GW have made of Iraq. Personally I'd send Blair out there and see how he likes facing down heavily armed people protected only by his charms. The slimy grinning fecker!
    Come on guys ... You know we benefitted from this war. You have to look at the long term.

    Who cares if a few thousand Arabs died ... There are more of them in Bradford.

    I think you guys did not look at the national interest. Ok, maybe the yanks get more than us ... but the nevertheless, we are getting a bit of the pies.

    I'm not complaining ... As long as there's profit to be made. Small price to pay for it. I'm like Tony, will never let my kids join the army. I will let all the others die for me. After all, that's what taxes are for.

    Alf, I'm working and I haven't got time for all the mumbo jumbo. If you've got something to say, can't you just say it?

    What really matters is that Tony has a nice smile, says the right words, and manages to sound sincere.

    16. Yu / Enthusiasm

    above Chên The Arousing, Thunder

    below K'un The Receptive, Earth


    The Judgement

    Enthusiasm. It furthers one to install helpers
    And to set armies marching.


    Change at the beginning means:
    Enthusiasm that expresses itself
    Brings misfortune.

    Change in the third place means:
    Enthusiasm that looks upward creates remorse.
    Hesitation brings remorse.

    Change in the fifth place means:
    Persistently ill, and still does not die.

    Change at the top means:
    Deluded enthusiasm.
    But if after completion one changes,
    There is no blame.

    Who created the dodgy dossier? Not only did it squeak the vote for war through our parliament, but the so-called "evidence" within it was also used by the Americans to justify invasion!

    If Blair hadn't concocted that dossier we would not have been involved, and if he had told Bush the UK would not take part in the invasion, the Americans would have had no allies and it would probably never have happened.

    I preferred the US of A Irak ... As it shows my ignorance about the whole region.

    Absolutely SallyAnne. The violence in Iraq has got absolutely nothing to do with our presence in Iraq.
