    Well I have flat feet so unfortunately I won't be seeing any action. However I will be seeing plenty of action back home as someone has to entertain all the lonely war widows :cool:

    Great idea. I can't possibly see how anything could go wrong.

    I'll start:

    FRANCE, YOU'RE A BUNCH OF ****

    Just got a reply from France. Of course you have to read that out loud in a comic French accent.
    "Your mother was a hampster and your father smells of elderberries"*


    *Oh Monty Python, you've done it again.

    I'm older than Minecraft goats.

    But what happens when all the scumbags get wiped out?
    Do we then become the next "scumbags" in line??
    Wave the white flag and have a party!

    i think the idea your looking for is pogrom.
    clear out the gettos, halting sites and other undesirable areas,
    get them all working in a nice secure camp somewhere undercutting those busy Asian kids making runners for nike,


    a fantastic idea says i fantastic ......

    Seems to be working for America...

    Wars also focus the nation to one cause. That way people find something to do with their lives than just sitting on their lazy arse moaning all the time.



    Not really, the US is running an annual deficit of about $1.04 trillion yet continue to spend about $1.08 trillion on defense, and these are only the figures we know about. They currently have a national debt of about $16.8 trillion (although this is thought to be about a fifth of the real figure). To say that war is good for America is like saying malaria is good for toddlers.

    And that's just the economic picture, forget about the PTSD and mental issues destroying the lives of war veterans and those around them.

    Think of the positives.

    Total 100% employment for our young men.
    Massive kickstart to manufacturing across Europe.
    Huge boost for agricultural nations.
    Worrisome youths learning some discipline.

    Now I appreciate there are some downsides but it would give Europe the shot in the arm it needs.
    What say you to my masterplan ?.
    If we have decided to go ahead with this Plan, henceforth known as the "Rabidlamb War on Economic Stagnation" - and I can see no downside whatsoever- we need a quiet spot to have the battles rage on. No point messing up perfectly good cities and stuff. I vote it gets held on Canada. It's aboout time they got a taste of steel.

    Oh c'mon, they have small little phones that not only make calls, but also allow you to watch movies, play games, and surf the internet. You honestly don't think they have advanced boot technology that a flat-footed person won't be able to have a proper fit?:rolleyes:

    Maybe so but I think I can serve the country much better by being a stay at home gigolo.

    Captain Bullshít to the rescue once again.................

    As the wise Carl Pilkinton once said:
    I call bull****!

    And on the war, yes, I agree, we should go to war against the banks!
    It will be a dangerous affair with them throwing "grenade mortgages" at us!
    we'll have to fight back by throwing all that copper shrapnel we have lying around at them.
