It seems that the US and its cohorts are determined to remove Assad, and Assad, Russia, Iran and probably China too are just as determined that he remains. The solution entails rockets, missiles and cyber wars between the main protagonists on a global scale.
In light of the above and in anticipation of your next question: yes, I do believe the next series of Loose Women will go ahead as scheduled.
I'm against the warmongers. You are for them.
"War Is A Racket." US Major General Smedley Butler said that. You can read his reasoning for those words here: https://www.ratical.org/ratville/CAH/warisaracket.html
By the way, he is the same Smedley Butler who was approached to lead a coup to overthrow the US government, but he blew the whistle on them. That's some history that will never receive the Hollywood treatment because the kind of people who were behind the plot are running Hollywood and pretty much everything else in the US today.
As long as the Loose Women are ok, happy days
Ooosh
I think they are just trying to get across the seriousness of some of these things, I don't think they live in fear, not in the way it might come across, I hope not anyway.
Almost like a Doomsday Prepper isn't living in fear but need to let the rest of us know about how serious the next end of the world is whilst building an air raid shelter and stock pilling 40 years worth of Bake Beans? It's a familiar scenario.
Some people are scared and panicky constantly, others aren't. I'm just glad I've been dealt the hand that means I'm not. After all if something is going to happen what's the point in worrying about it?

You couldn't be further from the truth. I'm Corbynesque when it comes to war, but as you said I'm complacent about another World War. It's done me alright for all my life so far, you on the other hand admitted you wished you didn't know what you (think) yhou know the other day. Who's winning in that scenario?
Some fair comments there. But I can assure you I'm out on the lash most days minus a gas mask and tin hat. Returning to Butler's book, I think he sets it out very well. It's why the US has been in perpetual conflict for so long. Everyone else collects the bankers' and corporations bills. It is indeed a beautiful money-making racket derived from misery.
This afternoon I'll be doing the Prince of Wales, then across the road up Westgate Street for the City Arms, Queens Vaults and The Gatekeeper. At the former I like to hang about in the outside area earwigging conversations and spread some doom and gloom amongst startled locals. It'll need to brighten up a bit by 1pm, though.
PS: This coming Friday's set to be a big, big day for the shiny stuff.
I only made it to the Prince of Wales today, it was raining a bit hard. I suppose you've been there? It's great how they managed to keep many of the original features of the picture hall. Was going to try Kiwi's too but it was wall-to-wall dosser types in there. Still, the fish and chips in Dorothy's in Caroline Street were tasty.
