Morgoth Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Does the US-UK imperial axis really want to ignite a new Great War? Goddamn somebody break up the NATO already. Rain makes everything better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgon Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Rumors like this are immensely beneficial to forcing the Ghaddafi loyalist into giving up, or giving a lot more than they would otherwise consider in a permanent settlement. Also remember that the scope of the any military engagement is quite small in comparison to Afghanistan or Iraq. It might be best to just get it over with. I mean we know from the start that there is no political will to occupy and do nation building afterward, which might well prove to be a healthy attitude.

Morgoth Posted July 11, 2011 Author Share Posted July 11, 2011 Nation building? What are you talking about? The NATO under US leadership went into this war thinking it will be quickly over, but it turns out the situation is getting more complicated and they may send in ground forces. Things then get really ugly, and there's no way out withing many years. It's just that those imbeciles in DC and elsewhere don't learn. And they don't have the capacity to admit it, because there's nothing worse for Hillary Clinton & Co to admit that they politically lost a war. Rain makes everything better.

Rosbjerg Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 I have to say that I've seen some surprisingly good journalism from that channel as well. But there's also a lot of EU and US bashing too, which seems a little propaganda'ish. Fortune favors the bald. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malcador Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 (edited) RT's slant is a bit too much at times, just have to sift through/ignore it. Isn't this thing more due to France and UK, though ? So..the US is engaging on some grand scheme to start WW3, hm, good to know. Edited July 11, 2011 by Malcador Why has elegance found so little following?

C'mon, pay attention. *sigh* Id love to pay attention to your inane rambling but you fall on your face right out of the gate. Lets review: The NATO under US leadership... So lets start out easy, whats wrong with the above statement? Thats right, we arent leading this one. Now lets examine this piece of work: It's just that those imbeciles in DC and elsewhere don't learn. What, pray tell, should we have learned from the actions of France and the UK on this matter?

I think that I don't want to partake of this discussion. I do however like making side notes of the informatory and often humorous nature. I hope you won't hold that against me.

Morgoth Posted July 11, 2011 Author Share Posted July 11, 2011 You can turn and twist it whatever way you want, France and UK are just the little lapdogs. It is an US lead mission (war).

No, NATO went into this war unwilling to commit to anything but air strikes, well knowing that their part in it would only be to provide the rebels with the advantage. In this case the lessons of Iraq and Afghanistan which are in fact first in everyone's minds are preventing a quick solution. Ghaddafi forces are tiny compared and would quickly crumble.

Morgoth Posted July 11, 2011 Author Share Posted July 11, 2011 Over three months of bombardements and Gadaffi still has not relinquished, that's some dip**** military doing their job there. Could be indeed the demilitarized UK RAF (Austerity measures, of course) that can't get anything properly done. Rain makes everything better.
