Sunset on Brittania

With the tragedy of oncoming events rapidly unfolding, it will be said that this is not the time to raise delicate matters. When is the right time? Later, when those wonderful defenders of democracy can ignore every sensible syllable uttered?
Admiral Sir Alan West praises the restraint and discipline of the unfortunate 15 taken into captivity in Iran. But what a strange message it is sending to he Iranian nation. If the contention is that the sailors were within Iraqi territorial waters is correct, then what use is there in issuing them with weapons? What use is a helicopter if it cannot protect two patrol boats and their crews?

And where is the BBC film of the incident? Was the BBC crew on board the chopper or with the parties on the boats? It has been two days and no-one is asking these questions. It has been two days and not a single government spokesman has made a rational appearance within the media.

And what is a female doing in the party? According to one of the last party to be taken into custody in Iran..."it changes the mindset having a female along?"

An oppo of mine recently finished 22years in the Andrew and was muting his intention of going back in. He committed suicide instead. Another desperate soul that the politicians ignored and Navy failed to monitor.

The picture above is the Cornwall in sunset. Say No More!!!
