    World War IV.

    But sadly ‘The World’ has not yet made up its mind about who is on which side and the western media is predominately staffed by douchebag quislings, anyway. What a fucking mess!

    WW1 – a disaster but ‘we’ won.

    WWII – diabolical but ‘we’ won

    WWIII – the Cold War, the Waiting Game, the USSR imploded and ‘we’ (therefore) won by default.

    WWIV – who the Faqawi?

  34. Thanks Dan smile I try hard, some day I’ll have a tenth the readers as this blog….
