    How about nuking Ireland. It's where Jedward and the more deadly Twink originated.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,800 ✭✭✭Senna


    What do you mean "we", we aren't capable of nuking anyway.

    A cheap attempt at creating an 'outrage' thread. Fairly tiresome.

    I'd rather a decent discussion about the continent. The increasing amount of the countries who are casting off the shackles of Soviet style socialism; and the obsession with Havana as opposed to London.

    A continent with the largest GDP growth in the world. Huge investment in infrastructure. It's a very exciting continent. I'd rather see that and the new realities.

    If you nuke Africa you'll put Trocaire out of business.


    And we can't be having that now, can we.

    They do "people only" ones...just saying like. Not that it's a good idea. Or even an idea. Or good.

    Who will sell us the nukes?

    We meaning the west.

    The west meaning the western world.

    The western world being a collective term for all the first world developed capitalist countries.

    Do you remember all that money that the Irish government gave over in development aid during the last boom? You'll be glad to know that some of it didn't end up in the hands of despotic government officials in Africa. There is the nebula of a hugely exciting IT industry in Ghana. Amazing solutions to local problems.

    No surprise that Ghana decided that socialism wasn't up to much.

    Nope, it was developed by lizard men in a secret organisation in Ballyfermot.

    Neither.

    The OP is on the case.
