There are certain times that your current situation means you’ve lost an argument.
Face full of tear gas, bruised testicle and queuing to sign on the sex offender’s register? That date didn’t go well.
Sitting upside down on the side of the motorway, whilst some one shouts “run it’s about to explode.” Then you should have gotten your brakes looked at.
Some arguments by the very nature of the immutable laws of the universe are failed arguments. McDonald’s isn’t healthy, Tesco’s are not benevolent they want to rule us all. So why this rather gnomic introduction to Dr S’s usual aimless witterings. Because Dr Sardonicus would like to make one thing to Mr Blair clear, in the highly unlikely chance he should read this blog.
You only have enquiries after you lost a war. If you’re in an enquiry you messed up. End of.
Alexander the Great never deffended killing all them Persians, Churchill never had to defend D Day, even Thatch got a free pass for the Falklands. For heaven’s sake no one really cares anymore. You’re not going to be EU president, or Pope or chairman of the Mickey Mouse club or what ever stupid job you thought you’d earned. You’re not going to prison take pleasure in that.
The only truly sad thing about Chilcott is that you’re supposed to have a comission after the war is over. Liking eating a big sandwich at the beach you’re supposed to wait at least an hour before invading another country.
Because half a mile from Chilcott the continuing war on Afghanistan is being planned. And in the office next door the future invasion of Iran is being planned. Is there a map with little coloured flags to make sure each country is liberated in strict rotation? If you got the maps mixed up wouldn’t that be a shocker! You’d end up invading Mongolia at the same time you were pacifying it.
Except some countries really don’t need to fear liberation all that much. Congo seems quite safe as does Sudan and Georgia.
I wander why that is?
Maybe it’s just a bit unsporting to invade a country that’s having a civil war that kills millions, selling it’s oil to China, or being used as a parking lot by the Russian army? Is the world that cynical?
Does the Pope’s bear wear a silly hat whilst crapping in the wood?
