John Reid became the first senior Cabinet figure to admit Britian's
foreign
policy was turning young Muslims to terrorism.

The Home Secretary's remarks end at least three years of denial by the
Government that the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan have been a key
factor
behind the alarming rise in Islamic extremism.

The most stubborn refusal to accept the argument has come from the Prime
Minister.

And this in a 'right wing' paper !

So...the sooner you surrender, the safer you'll be.

Who do you want us to 'surrender' to ?

Wow...you are easily confused.

I see you have no answer. No great surprise.

Let me ask you again......
Who do you want us to 'surrender' to ?


Mohammed.


Which one ? There's loads of them.


And no daft 'cutesy' comments this time ok ?


Having recently shown you to be a daft idiot
prone to making false accusations I'm not inclined
to treat you worthy of serious conversation.


You're so detached from reality I frankly don't care.


toopid can't grasp reality.

We had a window of opportunity to be successful in Iraq. That window is
long gone, as in likely well-closed by 2004.

It's like an (American) football team that forgot to put its defense on
the field for three quarters of the game. Suddenly, the coach realizes
his mistake. He gets 5-6 guys and throws them on the field. Some of
them are offensive players playing roles brand-new to them. None of
them are prepared for what is going on in the game. The coaching staff
is muddled and confused.

Now that the score is about 156-35, toopid worries that we may have a
mess on our hands and that we can't surrender. He just can't quite
grasp that his coaching team of bushie, rice, rummy, cheney, et al,
screwed up the game plan so badly that there is literally no hope of
recovery.

toopid confuses ideology and wishful thinking with reality quite
regularly, in case you haven't noticed...;-)
