Britain’s armed forces are making contingency plans for a possible military strike against the Assad regime to deter the “abhorrent” use of chemical weapons, Downing Street has confirmed.

Amid expectations that David Cameron will announce that parliament is to be recalled later this week to discuss the Syrian crisis, No 10 indicated that Britain and the US would not be bound by the findings of the UN weapons team which inspected the Damascus suburb hit in the chemical attack.

In a sign of the increased pace of activity, the prime minister’s spokesman said plans for a military strike were under way. The spokesman said: “I am not going to get into details on any specifics. All I would say is it is reasonable to assume that our armed forces are making contingency plans.”

      ‘Not bound by UN’ Yes, I suppose the warmongering demons like the UK, US, France, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, israHell, Turkey, Oman and Bahrain are the main countries that don’t need mandates or laws, just blood to appease their higher masters.

      All conspiracy theories aside. For all that wish ill will apon the innocent, my sentiments exactly, “shoot him again”.
      Author is unknown for sure. Could be a housewife or a Journalist in California, could be your neighbor or closest friend. I Agree with it either way.

      Thought you might like to read this letter
      to the editor. Ever notice how some people
      just seems to know how to write a letter?

      This one surely does!

      It applies to all those who have lost something because of 9/11 and because of the hate that others have of the U.S.A, and other FREE nations in the world. Every soldier that has paid the ultimate price for FREEDOM. Not just U.S. soldiers……all Soldiers who died for the sake of Freedom. Including Israel and it’s soldiers and also New Zealand and it’s soldiers.

      THIS ONE PACKS A FIRM PUNCH

      Originally an E-mail to an editor I believe….Not sure?

      Although IT WAS WRITTEN.

      “Are we fighting a war on terror or aren’t we? Was
      it or was it not, started by Islamic people who
      brought it to our shores on September 11, 2001
      and have continually threatened to do so since?

      Were people from all over the world, not brutally murdered
      that day, in downtown Manhattan , across the Potomac from
      the capitol of the USA and in a field in Pennsylvania ?

      Did nearly three thousand men, women and children die a horrible, burning or crushing death that day, or didn’t they?

      Do you think I care about four U. S. Marines urinating on some dead Taliban insurgents?

      And I’m supposed to care that a few Taliban were
      claiming to be tortured by a justice system of a
      nation they are fighting against in a brutal Insurgency.

      I’ll care about the Koran when the fanatics in the Middle
      East, start caring about the Holy Bible, the mere belief
      of which, is a crime punishable by beheading in Afghanistan .

      I’ll care when these thugs tell the world they are
      sorry for hacking off Nick Berg’s head, while Berg
      screamed through his gurgling slashed throat.

      I’ll care when the cowardly so-called insurgents
      in Afghanistan , come out and fight like men,
      instead of disrespecting their own religion by
      hiding in Mosques and behind women and children.

      I’ll care when the mindless zealots who blow
      themselves up in search of Nirvana, care about the
      innocent children within range of their suicide Bombs.

      I’ll care when the Canadian media stops pretending that
      their freedom of Speech on stories, is more important than
      the lives of the soldiers on the ground or their families waiting
      at home, to hear about them when something happens.

      In the meantime, when I hear a story about a
      CANADIAN soldier roughing up an Insurgent
      terrorist to obtain information, know this:

      I don’t care.

      When I see a wounded terrorist get shot in the
      head when he is told not to move because he
      might be booby-trapped, you can take it to the bank:

      I don’t care. Shoot him again.

      When I hear that a prisoner, who was issued a Koran and a prayer mat, and fed ‘special’ food, that is paid for by my tax dollars, is complaining that his holy book is being ‘mishandled,’ you can absolutely believe, in your heart of hearts:

      I don’t care.

      And oh, by the way, I’ve noticed that sometimes
      it’s spelled ‘Koran’ and other times ‘Quran.’
      Well, Jimmy Crack Corn you guessed it.

      I don’t care!!

      If you agree with this viewpoint, pass this on to
      all your E-mail Friends. Sooner or later, it’ll get to
      the people responsible for this ridiculous behavior!

      If you don’t agree, then by all means hit the delete
      button. Should you choose the latter, then please don’t
      complain when more atrocities committed by radical
      Muslims happen here in our great Country! And may I add:

      Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering, if
      during their life on earth, they made a difference in
      the world. But, the Soldiers don’t have that problem.

      I have another quote that I would like to
      share AND…I hope you forward All this.

      One last thought for the day:

      Only five defining forces have ever offered to die for you:

      1. Jesus Christ

      2. The British Soldier.

      3. The Canadian Soldier.

      4. The US Soldier, and

      5. The Australian Soldier

      One died for your soul,
      the other four, for you and your children’s Freedom.

      YOU MIGHT WANT TO PASS THIS ON,
      AS MANY SEEM TO FORGET!

      Hi zues,

      You seem like you need to blame the muslims for some thing you think they did or are doing. You seem to have forgotten Galipoli. The British sent the young Aussies to the deaths. The British had a bounty on an aborigines head of one guinea in Western Australia until 1938. Those mugs who went to Vietnam did not die for me they died for the lie that was the Gulf of Tonkin False Flag and “all the way with LBJ”. You want to see some carnage, just go to YouTube and see what our great ANZACS did in Vietnam, in Borneo. They did not die for me. Maybe they died for you. What the Australians Army did in Dili whilst wearing the UN colours was and is to this day “Genocide”. Is genocide fighting for me? I yes, those Timorese that got slaughtered for the Timor Gap Oil and Gas, they died for me. But hang on, they were civilans What about Bali? Did those Aussies who were not in any army die for me? They were killed by proxy for Howard who sent Aussie troops to Iraq without senate approval, and Aussies took to the streets to demand he follow Aussie Rules. Bali was to stop the Aussies in Aussie from demanding he follow Aussie Rules. What about Pine Gap and North West Cape? Look mate go get yourself a hot cup of tea, some penadol and have a lie down.
