... and as soon as we've finished dealing with Gaddafi we can turn full attention to sorting this out.

PS - Gaddafi wont require his cell at the ICC so Assad can have that !

An oil refinery outside the Libyan town of Zawiya, just 50km (30 miles) west of Tripoli, has been taken by opposition forces, according to reports.

A Reuters news agency reporter said rebels were in the complex and there was no sign of pro-Gaddafi troops.

If confirmed, it would be both a strategic and psychological blow to Colonel Gaddafi's supporters, the BBC's Matthew Price in Tripoli says.

Pro-Gaddafi forces have lost territory to the rebels in recent days.

That's what we do, is it, "sort things out"? For some reason you seem to get a particular kick out of predicting that superior British firepower will solve everything. Does that make you feel superior yourself, or does your view of the world simply involve making everywhere else just like Derbyshire? Actually, I can see you as Governor of Kandahar or somewhere like that in the 1850s, you usually sound like one of George McDonald Fraser's oafish and jingoistic caricatures...

Let me tell you this, and listen carefully. We can't even sort ourselves out.


Who the fuck made us the world's policeman anyway?

One of my Eyre ancestors was once Governor of Jamaica, does that help ?

He'd turn in his grave if he knew his descendant was the forum clown

Ah. An Eyrehead, then.

Yes - my ancestors were (like me) huge achievers (perhaps because they did some work and didnt live of ... oh, there werent any benefits then were there?).
Those who didnt work hard starved to death !!!!!!!!!!!!

As well as the Governor, we also have Archbishops (note - plural), people who worked for the Monarch, loads of Colonels and Lt. Cols, we didn't really go in for the Navy (but the one who did became a Vice Admiral !), and more Knights (inc "of the Garter") and Baronets than you can shake a stick at !

..... and before he became Governor of Jamica, he spent some time in Australia.
Veritas may be interested to know that Mount Eyre, Lake Eyre, and the Eyre Peninsula are all named after him.

I cant really seen a mountain, a lake or a peninsula being named after an apologist for looters and theives can you ?

Or perhaps its those that have never achieved anything that just egg on and support these rioters - as they have zilch to lose ?

We only have your word for it that you are personally a "huge achiever".

I think it more likely that you are simply attempting to bathe in the reflected glory of your purported ancestors. The reflection, by the way, is not exactly the same thing as the original. Your words make you sound more boastful than personally noteworthy, though this is hardly a new development. Whatever, it might be best if you didn't "bathe" in anything that originated with the "Vice Admiral", a colloquial term dating back to the C17th for someone who pissed under the table, fouling the stockings of his drinking mates. I can see how the lineage has progressed from one who gives to one who takes.

Just as I thought ... NOTHING to brag about !
No wonder you and some other posters here as so like-minded !

(Try as hard as you like I'm not going to produce "evidence" simply to convince someone who I neither know nor care about. Your opinion matters not one jot to me - nor ever will.

I've already stated that I dont bandy confidential info on the internet as security is very important to me).
