Silvio, jeez you are amusing. I see, from your comment, that you have not read the dictionary, nor any grammar text. However I guess your general thrust can be accepted–kill the dictator! Confucious (check your dictionary again–spell check?) had many informative sayings. Never read the one you quoted. As far as I know, a good leader bets on his own horse–himself.

In reply to Harry Purdie. More like a lemon, Redoute. That's really yellow. Ever try to 'blow your own horn' while sucking a lemon? Doesn't work. Wonder whether Kevvy works (wifie keeps him) as he blows his own horn.

And for those of us here who know absolutely nothing about military affairs, I will just tell them that this part of the Med is going to be so congested with military aircraft that civilian aircraft have been told to expect delays or even sent back to their point of departure.

With Qatar and the UAE participating in the UN effort to stop Gaddafi butchering his people we could have at least offered some facilities to them and we would have expressed our willingness to be part of this bloomin’ world rather than showing everyone we live in cuckoo land.

In reply to John. If history is forgotten, it is bound to repeat itself. Read up about life under Labour, John.

This is the first time I am diametrically opposed to the stand taken by our PM. I thought he would be the sensible man and politician that I always thought he was.

This stand of being neutral in the face of a UN resolution, no less, means that I have to give up on my country when it comes to foreign affairs. To me this is the end.

I don’t want to even waste my time anymore trying to put forward my argument against this neutrality clause, that was shoved down our throat anyway. My last bastion of defending what is right and logical in foreign affairs has failed me. I can’t believe I’m writing this, but I know I am and I’m not feeling ashamed at all.

We are the armchair critics who know just what to say
We are the brave and valiant – we’ll lead you all the way
We shouted “Hail to Caesar” up to a week ago
We now rush to condemn him: he’s weak and he is slow.
We are Ta’ Bendu’s army – we bleat and we walk tall
We rub it in profusely – we think we know it all.

In reply to Claude Sciberras. Last time round all it took was a phone call from the less senile one and the attempted bombing that was to put an end to this dictator went down the drain...
