A profound act by the British Parliament. That vote put the notion of democracy back on the table. The Arab League does not support an attack, the UN Security Council won't give him any backing and Obama was not putting his neck out without Congress making a decision. The French announced this morning they are not attacking by themselves.

It's early days but thanks to the British MPs this may be a definitive moment for the planet. Decisions on behalf of corporations and the MICs are not as sacred as they were in 2003.
Unilateralism is on trial and it's all in the hands of ReTHUGs in the House.
That said they may give Obama the votes and the rest of the world will turn against the US even more. George Bush's Iraq was the icing on the cake. This is a delish Western clusterfuck that the entire planet needs big time.

I did hear something about PM getting ripped up in Parliament, was prob too hungover to get details before I left..

So, should I start hiding my US passport again, like I had to do when Bush was around?

Looks like trouble for us come Thursday - shouldn't be more than a depression. Could be big trouble up the line.

should be able to post sans context.



After all, we're only given so much time in a life, may as well waste other people's.



that said, the link you provided actually had a modicum of contextual detail. I don't watch much TV, but I know exactly what the poster is talking about and the context. It was a modest time waster, but not nearly so much as often happens on DU.

But I wish we could enforce it. It might take riffles to do it, though.

They'll tell us to "Get a room!" malaise. What they don't know is that we'd plot the revolution in that room.
