Yes It would be funny if it wasn't so pathetic.

The problem is , this Mudcat pantomime is being played out in the country as well!

USA/UK politicians are busily spinning the disaster they have created, to provide cover for troop withdrawals and to avoid collateral damage from the media.
Using exactly the same tactics as Bruce and Teribus.

At the moment the vast majority of people are full of righteous indignation at being lied to, and at the sheer incompetence of our respective govts.
But memories are short, maybe these tactics will prevail and our leaders will move on to maim and kill in another land.

But there is a chance that the stench of this "war" will stick in the craw of the American and British people, and make them scrutinise their leaders more closely; and more importantly scrutinise the road down which we are travelling....Ake
