Hi
Great board. Should have said 'hello' before posting but just dived in.
Nice mix of people on here.
I'd like to think the neo-cons may learn something about how the world now sees America and hope that the American majority get some un-Foxed news.
I'm willing to be convinced I've got it all wrong and that Rumsfeld etc have my best interests at heart - not happened to date.
FWIW I'm a Brit, socialist cynic, care about the environment & the future but enjoy shooting, have some military experience, believe war (as a last
resort) can be just but must be conducted with a long-term (not re-election) objective in mind. Using all available force just because you can is the
coward's response, I believe. Bombing innocents / invading small islands etc just for approval ratings is unforgiveable IMO.
Like: Mark & Lard, satire (remember that), the BBC, John Peel (RIP), Clause 4, the EU, the people of the World, indie bands, folk music, the greater
good, tolerance, and society.
Hate: Racism, WTO, US $ politics, Neo-cons, Zionism, gung-ho armchair generals, ignorance, passive acceptance of news-mangement, Rupert Murdoch,
Sky/Newscorp, Alistair Campbell, Man United (rags).
By the way CTID is 'City 'Till I Die' and refers to the greatest football (Socca) team on the planet: Manchester City FC the true home of
Manchester football.
'Stand up if you hate Man U, Stand up if you hate Man U...' All together now
