why do "too many cooks, spoil the broth" come to mind when i see this article about Syria. Its like watching 4 or 5 of your friends play fighting and wading in to join the fight while their right in the heat of it and totally not expecting to get punched on the face and knocked the fuck out... Of course everyone's gonna deny hitting you when you wake up.

It could be Syria retaliating when they blocked the convoy carrying aid and other supplies saying it wasn't safe and they went ahead with it anyway (or at least i think they did)
The problem now is that aid convoy has been used as a tool to either end the ceasefire or increase tensions between the US & Russia who brokered the deal on the ceasefire. Everyone is pointing fingers at each other but only one party is the guilty one.

Syrian Army declared ceasefire over before the air strike. Also, we bombed the Syrian Forces during the ceasefire.
It's all one monumental cluster fuck with no end in sight.

The world needs to create another Liberia.

Or maybe the world didnt need people messing with things that didnt need messing with in the first place... As one person either on this forum or somewhere else put it... cameron pretty much opened up 'pandora's box' by doing it. Blair started the ball rolling but we slowly but surely managed to bring the heat down on that a few levels... Terrorism was still happening. but nowhere near on the same level as they are right now. Even the Taliban are fighting Daesh! the West and the Taliban were never going to see eye to eye but I believe that we had some level of co-operation with them where we could both eventually come to live at peace. Then comes Cameron and obama and destroy whatever stability the middle east had and now random terrorist attacks are happening almost all over the globe.

Like some people have said before... You'd think we'd learnt our lesson from the Invasion of IraQ but we have learnt nothing. It is not the UK's job to play 'world police' and we have to stop this. On a side note -- any military action that the UK takes part in is usually heavily debated in parliament before and action is taken so lessons have been learnt somewhat.

Speaking of opium, Ive been told that many many many moons ago that my family used to own a fair amount of land in Hong Kong -- They were farmers & fishermen and used the land for agriculture as well as fish farms. Sadly My great great great great great great (great great great great great great...) grandpappy was a bit of a gambler and opium addict and lost most of the land through debts... We still have land, but its not enough to grow anything on and most of it has had property built on it

I knew we were bad but i didnt realize what a huge cartel GBDRUGSRUS was, and for how long

from wiki

Imports of opium into China stood at 200 chests annually in 1729,[1] when the first anti-opium edict was promulgated.[2][3]and by the time Chinese authorities reissued the prohibition in starker terms in 1799,[4] the figure had leaped; 4,500 chests were imported in the year 1800.[1] The decade of the 1830s witnessed a rapid rise in opium trade,[5] and by 1838, just before the First Opium War, it had climbed to 40,000 chests.[5]The rise continued on after the Treaty of Nanking (1842) that concluded the war. By 1858 annual imports had risen to 70,000 chests (4,480 long tons (4,550 t)), approximately equivalent to global production of opium for the decade surrounding the year 2000.[6]

Hemp is different to cannabis, they are distinct strains with unique biochemical compositions.

Hemp is different to cannabis,

hemp is the male plant cannabis is the Female plant
Police will bust you for growing both/either unless you have a license

""Quote from wilki""

Hemp or industrial hemp (from Old English hænep),[1] typically found in the northern hemisphere, is a variety of the Cannabis sativa plant species that is grown specifically for the industrial uses of its derived products.[2] It is one of the fastest growing plants[3] and was one of the first plants to be spun into usable fiber 10,000 years ago.[4] It can be refined into a variety of commercial items including paper, textiles, clothing, biodegradable plastics, paint, insulation, biofuel, food, and animal feed.[5]

Although cannabis as a drug and industrial hemp are both members of the species Cannabis sativa and contain the psychoactive component tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), they are distinct strains with unique biochemical compositions and uses

Industrial Hemp (iHemp) is made up of varieties of “Cannabis Sativa” that contain less than 0.3% Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). It is an annual broadleaf plant with a taproot and is capable of very rapid growth under ideal growing conditions. The female flowers and seeds are indeterminate, meaning that there are both ripe and immature seeds on the same plants at the time of grain harvest.

Royal Navy used to execute Mutineers and convicted Felons
with the BRIDPORT DAGGER ( Navel slang for the Hangmans noose Suspended from the Yard Arm ).
Bridport in Dorset was once one of the Royal Navy's Rope making Factory towns and many a Farm in Dorset Grew Hemp for the Royal Navy
