Whatto! Peeps....
It might be the arrival of this weeks BIG MOON....
....but I sense that something darker is afoot.....
....something sinister......
....something that will ease those rusted wheels of commerce.
For despite my protestations
I find we are now AT WAR with Libya.
The beginning of a potentially long and drawn out 'intervention'....
...where we try to control their sky....
....by firing countless Cruise Missiles at them
aiming (of course) at so called 'Safe Targets'
which we are assured have all been 'properly researched'
(not like the Governments Weapons of Mass Destruction dossier then?)
....and in the process
we promise not to kill any more civilians than Gaddafi has already.
And so Britain
teetering on the edge of Bankruptcy
gets involved yet again...
...all 'perfectly legal' (this time)..
says Cameron
and Gaddafi says it's going to be a 'Long, drawn out War'
and promises 'revenge' on the West
for our acts of 'terrorism' against Libya.
If this all sounds very familiar...
...that's because it is.
We had fifteen years of enforcing a 'no fly zone' over Iraq
until patience finally ran out
they could see the oil burning
but didn't yet own it.
Deja Vu
Tallyho!
