Britain will not start World War Three over Ukraine, David Cameron says
The Telegraph ^ | 30 Jul 2014 | Christopher Hope

Posted on 07/31/2014 5:42:03 AM PDT by McGruff

The Prime Minister compared Russia’s behaviour in Ukraine to Germany’s before both break out of the First and Second world wars. Mr Cameron said then that Britain was “not about to launch a European war, we are not about to send the fleet to the Black Sea”. But Mr Cameron said the West had to draw a line or Russia would start to put similar pressure on European Union countries on the eastern fringes of the Continent like Romania.

I don't think anyone suspects the UK of starting a world war over Ukraine. The question is, has Russia already started it...?

Britain HAS NO army, navy or air force.

They have been cut to the bone.

Their military is a joke.

They won’t be able to cash that check...

James Blunt (forground) is the now famous British pop star who flouted Wes Clark's insanity. He was leading Recon into Pristina when he saw the Russians already holding the airport. Clark ordered him to take the airport at any cost and Blunt said no.



He doesn't look all that tough but he grew up military and has done time in some pretty hot spots.

I don't think I'll ever get over Estonia and Poland.

Arthur Neville Chamberlain was a British Conservative politician who served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from May 1937 to May 1940. Chamberlain is best known for his appeasement foreign policy, and in particular for his signing of the Munich Agreement in 1938, conceding the German-populated Sudetenland region of Czechoslovakia to Germany. Too bad it didn’t stop WWII...history repeating itself...

I don’t think I’ll ever get over Poland or Estonia or Macho Grande for that matter. Those wounds run pretty deep.

Great Britain hasn't seen the likes of David Cameron's manliness since the days of Neville Chamberlain. Remember Chamberlain's famous “peace in our time” gaffe?

What our British cousins need is another lion like Winston Churchill or lioness like Margret Thatcher. The current crop of Labour and Conservatives are a bunch of wussies. Those who aren't wussies are Dhimmis for the Muslim invaders. Some are both. Average Brits are totally screwed.

The world’s “police force” is led by an empty suit. The world’s slipping into anarchy. WWIII is on the horizon.

Dunno. They are part of the same team, though. I feel like Ezekiel 39 is around the corner. And Luke 21. Etc.

WWIII started in 1991 when the 1960’s radical leftist in this country re-declared their “civil” war against the US.

The radical leftist decided to use muslim terrorist as their proxy fighters which took their re-declaration of “civil” war against the US global.
