Sonia Poulton 'SEND THE CHILDREN OF MPs TO THE FRONT LINE IN SYRIA'

by **Tony Bennett** on 27.11.15 14:41

Sonia Poulton and someone called Colin Glen do not think we should send British forces to bomb targets in Syria.

As it happens, neither do I.

Remember Iraq. (And Afghanistan. And Libya.)

But Sonia Poulton is so uptight about it that she recommends that the children of Britain's MPs should be sent to the front line to die.

To me that is just saying as others do that politicians the world over would think twice about starting wars if their own children had to go and fight them.

I may not agree with SP's statement of sending MPs children to Syria, but I would clearly state that any MP can resign from the Government and join military fighters to fight in any campaign in Syria should they so wish to do so, but do they not hesitate to send other peoples sons & daughters to conflict situations?
Just as in previous conflicts, the "Commanders safely tucked away in the Bunkers back home" issuing orders to be followed and if orders disobeyed "Shot Dead" by your own side, or sent before mlitary courts as cowards, possibly suffering with PTSD?

To me it's just tweeting bollocks that has as much importance as discussing nail varnish shades.

My take on all of this is nobody should have to die for the sake of Government agendas no matter what part of the planet we live on geographically.
To send anyone to war to slaughter numerous innocent human beings over resources, land grabs, money & to embed the psychopaths into positions of so called power and control. All military as far as i'm concerned the world over should lay down their weapons and go home. Until that happens we will have useless neverending wars that no one ever wins in reality. The only reason i can see to keep these bloody wars going is because people enjoy killing each other, and that will be to their detriment. To kill another is to destroy yourself, so don't do it.

Remember Weapons of Mass Destruction?
They will probably find those with "The Untold Story...."

Of course.

We were lied to.

We are always lied to and manipulated to form our opinions.

Basing opinion on Government information is not a good idea.

They don't think twice about a lie to get us to agree.
