ITV programme last night was quite good, much of it is a rehash of other stuff but well produced and neatly done. Guardian review

ITV Player linky for those who missed it.

Copied from someone else I know who watched it:

In World War 1, 10% of the casualties were civilians
In World War 2, 50% of the casualties were civilians
In the Vietnam war, 70% of the casualties were civilians
In the Iraq war. 90% of the casualties were civilians

Money can't buy happiness... but it can buy bacon which is close enough.

I watched parts of it ,but I got the message when I switched back on and i heard a recorded conversation between Nixon and Kissinger, Nixon actually was in favour of using nuclear weapons , I suppose it must have been veitnam Kissinger was against it straight away and Nixon said something like"you got a problem with nuking them Henry? why?" scary !!
but you and I weve been through that and this is not our fate.
So let us so let us not talk falsely now.
The hour is getting late
FROM 2004,TO DO WHAT THIS CLUB HAS DONE,IF THATS NOT GREATNESSTHEN i DONT KNOW WHAT IS.
