    As expected.

    This isn’t going to end well.

    Obama doesn’t want to do anything…he’s too busy courting friendship with the Islamic world. I think he thinks if we’re nice to them, they’ll be nice to us.

    What is so wrong with that? The aggressive stance hasn’t really worked either has it?

    As Alan says, what would the UN do? The West has had its fingers burned in Middle East before and continues to do so and as many have said we should be pulling out of Afghanistan. Do we really want to get involved in another conflict of indeterminate length? The recent pictures from Syria are truly heartbreaking but the only solution would appear to be a military one. Is that what we want?
    We saw similar pictures of children from Halubja in Iraq and look where we ended up with that one.
    We, as part of the human race, have a duty to protect thos vulnerable sections of societies which are being repressed but our ability to carry out our duty is tainted with a history of poorly planned and executed operations that have, in many cases, made things worse.

    It might be a dated thing but an event that attracts 125 million viewers isn’t going to stop anytime soon.

    You don’t have to be interested in football. Let me try another question then. Do you say Scotland should stop entering the Rugby World Cup because they have never won it? Of course not. Not winning is a poor excuse for not entering.

    Well out of the “big 5”, Italy, Spain, France, Germnay and the UK, the UK has done all right.
    Spain hasn’t won it since 1969 and France since 1977. I wonder if they all moan about not winning.

    England hasn’t won the World cup since 1966. Do you think they should stop entering because they haven’t won it recently?

    Simples Jim…we are there to supply £££££££££££££’s to help not fill the non democratic/wasteful/inefficient/completely forked EU eurofailure financial black hole…:mad:

    And that has what to do with the Eurovision song contest exactly?

    Good old British thinking though – we don’t want to play any more because we always lose.
