The cost of the Afghan war so far-438 UK troops have been killed at a financial cost of $26.6 billion to this country.God alone knows how many Afghans have died.I just thought this might be of more importance than the wherabouts of Southover Queen

A cheap dig, Nixon! I don't deny what you say is true, but don't expect us all to wear sackcloth and ashes at this festive time and think of nothing but your particular agenda.

War is a terrible thing but it is natures way of culling. Lets face it if the millions of people from all nationalities who have died in conflict would have lived it does not take a mathematician to work out how overpopulated this planet would be.

So true Pope, it's a bit like pyramid selling. If all the men who died would have lived to have children and they in turn had children its mind blowing to think of the end result.

Can't you see from the name he uses "Nixon Scraypes", i.e. Nicks and Scrapes? He just wants to be abrasive and wind people up? Take no notice.

The idea was not to be abrasive,if it was I would have called you a prat or something equally insulting. I was trying to point out,clumsily perhaps, that it is easy to say that war is natural when someone else is at the sharp end. If you think about the amount of lying the government had to do to justify the Iraq invasion it wasn't that natural after all.One thing Afghnistan,Iraq,Libya,Syria and Iran had in common was independant central banks not controlled by the World Bank/IMF/BIS cartel. They were not in debt like we are. It's a nasty game they've been playing for a long time and as long as they can keep us calling eachother names we'll never notice what's really going on. Weapons of Mass Distraction are deadly.
