Britain Prepares to Attack Iran
Defense Ministry Expects US to 'Fast-Forward' Plans for Attack
by Jason Ditz, November 02, 2011

With Defense Ministry officials saying that they believe the US may soon “fast-forward” plans to attack Iran, Britain’s military is stepping up its own preparations for such an attack under the assumption that they will join in on the war.

(continued)

Just thought I'd bring this up because the airbase down the road from here is putting the AWACs & fuel tankers through training flights more than usual the last couple of weeks. :smoke:

But I will be thoroughly annoyed if I get obliterated in a nuclear cloud. Bloody annoyed.

Nick Clegg was over at Waddington today, passing on Bibi's orders by hand I assume? Expect fireworks. There's three big birds in the sky this afternoon and you very seldom see a complete flock of awacs up in the air together like that round here. These are the ones used in most foreign adventures. Just hope they have'n't gone for a early real run? I need more tins of soup. :smoke:

Actually there's no such place as Camembert (scuse spelly above) - its made in Normandy and though I am tempted to suggest you do bomb it because it isn't all that different from horrible parts of England, they do make nice cheese and cider there..

Some heavy off-topic denial happening here. It's only double the price of oil and all that goes with it...like hyper-inflation. Nick Clegg is just passing on the orders. He's a responsible man who'd never jeopodise your lifestyle for the sake of his ego. :dp:

Why don't you just shut up for a bit and maybe look for a good news story and surprise everyone?
