It's a position japan have also considered. It's not ridiculous. It just means we don't use nuclear weapons but we do safeguard jobs. The submarines do have other uses rather than just wiping out cities. | |||

"Hi is/was for scrapping Trident. Fair comment, that's his opinion. Then someone whispered in his ear, that it would put approximately 20000 workers out of a job. Most likely 20000 Labour voters at that. So quick rethink, keep Trident, just don't arm it. Me thinks the inmates are running the Asylum. " No that's impossible, he's a man of principle | |||

I'm not saying I agree with him, but I am enjoying a very different perspective on things, it makes you think." If he stood for election on an anti Trident platform and won, then I would respect him and the decision. However the only purpose of Trident is as a nuclear deterrent so if you take away the deterrent you might as well take the subs as well. He seem to want his (or McCluskeys) cake and eat it. | |||

Keeping submarines (which are basically useless as anything other than an attack craft) deployed but unarmed is stupidity of the highest order. You may as well commission a few frigates which would be a damn site cheaper and a lot more useful than subs with no weapons. | |||

"Lost plot one. So some people are against Trident and others in favour. That is a fair argument and no doubt each side would stand their ground and argue their corner. Personally I would be in favour of it but would respect (although argue against) the views of people on the opposite side. Corbyn however seems to think that it is a good idea to keep the submarines (at a cost of untold billions) but disarm them and either keep them tied up in port or send them around the world on a what would be nothing more than a sightseeing jolly. Imagine the future scenario under a Corbyn government. First officer runs from the comm's room to the bridge "Captain we have a message from Downing St. It says the UK is under nuclear attack and we have to respond. "Do we have the launch codes No 1" says the captain. "yes sir, all correct" comes the reply. The captain thinks for a moment and calls the sub to action stations. He opens his secret orders and checks all the codes himself. "OK No 1 this is it" he says as his finger hovers over the red button. "Fire one" he shouts as he presses it. "Email gone" comes the reply from the comm's room as a few billion quids worth of kit sends the Kremlin (or whoever) a nasty letter. Lost plot two. He now thinks that the west should open negotiations with ISIS. IZAL. Darth. Dirch. Dodge or whatever their name is this week. To negotiate what exactly? Seeing as how their only reason to exist is to either destroy us or convert us to their medieval death cult, what do we put on the table? "We'll give you a million or two converts if you back off from blowing us up"? Or how about "we'll give you 10,000 infidels who you can crucify, behead, chuck of a building, Etc. if you promise no more machine gun attacks? Or maybe he wants to just give them Israel on a plate. Even though I fundamentally disagreed with him on almost everything, I thought at one time that Corbyn was a breath of fresh air compared to the usual stuffed suit career politicians. Now I realise that this guy is one serious nutter who has really lost the plot (if he ever had it) " He has not lost the plot, the missiles are the expensive part of the system. They are also American. We basically lease them they are not an independant system. It seems sensible to me to refit the subs for conventional warfare. Keeps the British jobs and then benefits conventional armed forces. They are then actually more useful. We would still have the capabilty to make a nuke if required. | |||

"I'd rather we have the warheads and not use them, than need them and be beyond fucked to arm the subs due to an attack from any other world power with the ability to nuke us. And don't be so sure it won't happen if we disarm the subs. Especially with sanctions on Iran being the way it is and the world in apparent meltdown To have them is prevention. Anyway, this is a Swingers site. Lets talk about hot women. LMAO " I really don't see this argument as valid. Yes the world does seem to be exceptionally chaotic, but then again this is nothing in comparison to WW1 and WW2. I really do not see how nuclear war heads deter another nations from launching their own. After all, most conflict has and will be over resources. So dropping a nuke to obtain another nations resources is pointless, not only because you irradiate the land but also as any nuclear fall out will effect the aggressors land and nation to some degree. Therefore any nuclear strike, by any nation is ill thought out and counter productive. | |||

"well the subs are the best part of 25 years old so they were going to have to be replaced anyway so whatever was going to replace it is going to be a large part of the cost of trident anyway.... no one on any side didn't say they would not have to be replaced... the debate was what they would be armed with.... i don't see the point of a nuclear weapon, because it would be a ballsy move for anyone to basically use one and say "well we are going to destroy the earth" so from a purely practical stance the non nuclear weapon is the more threthening as it is more likely to be used" Fabio, you strike me as one of the more rational people who doesn't see the point in nukes. In all seriousness, why do you suppose other countries have gone to extreme lengths to obtain / try to obtain them? (North Korea, Pakistan, Iran, Israel etc) I mean, if they were pointless, why would North Korea sooner starve 10% of its population to death than give them up? Genuinely interested in your opinion... | |||

Another government can easily decide to retrofit the warheads anyway. " And what happens when a Trident sub launches a ballistic missile armed with conventional warheads? It is automatically assumed the warheads are nuclear and the opposition immediately launch a retaliatory strike. 3 minutes later when the opposition realise the missiles were only conventional they can email the remains of Whitehall apologising for the mistake and we can all have a laugh about it. I don’t think so! | |||

" like our aircraft carriers with no aircaraft one of which will go strait in to mothballs just as much economic sense " The secret of 'informed debate' is to be ... err ... 'informed'. Sadly you seem not to be. So exactly how would we fly any new F35s off the carriers right now exactly? They aren't finished yet or did you miss that bit? And ever thought the F35 programme and the carrier programme are sort of related to each other timewise? And as for your nonsense about mothballing the PoW I guess you weren't paying attention when it was announced at the NATO Conference in Wales in 2014 that it will be brought into full service like QE? It was only Labour who had the concept of building two carriers and then having to mothball one. The SDSR10 actually looked at equipping PoW with CATOBAR but it was too expensive, no delivery date and no reliability promised hence reverting to F35B aircraft. SDSR2010 also delayed the decision on active service which was announced in 2014. It will be launched later this year and commissioned in 2019. We WILL have two fully operational carriers only 50 metres shorter than a US Ford Class carrier. | |||

" or scrapping 30 of the latest surveillence airplanes just as they were comissioned only to start heavily investing in new surveillence planes five years later" Oh dear god not another Nimrod lover. Look the MR2 was past its sell by date, first flew in 1967 and a flying death trap. It was a very old aircraft based on the bloody Comet for Christs sake. And that wonderful idea the Nimrod AEW3? Started in the '70s and binned in the '80s and why we bought Boeing E-3 sentrys. And as for the Nimrod MRA4? 9 years late and £ Billinos over budget and NONE flying. It couldn't even get an air certificate and the bloody wings wouldn't fit! 3 were built but hardly worked. They couldn't even make the air refuelling systems fit as each fuselage was different!! And lest we forget the reason we HAD to bin the Harrier, Ark Royal and the Norod MRA4 was Labour's crashing the economy and we had 'no money left'... Or did we forget that bit? It was not a free choice situation. Harrier or Tornado? Give me the Tonka every time. So yes 5 years later we are now buying a proven flying aircraft fully fitted and operational. Something the Nimrod would never have achieved. So what exactly IS the problem? | |||

And lest we forget the reason we HAD to bin the Harrier, Ark Royal and the Norod MRA4 was Labour's crashing the economy and we had 'no money left'... Or did we forget that bit? It was not a free choice situation. Harrier or Tornado? Give me the Tonka every time. So yes 5 years later we are now buying a proven flying aircraft fully fitted and operational. Something the Nimrod would never have achieved. So what exactly IS the problem?" the problem is the money is better spent than on this kind of arms race bullshit. | |||

" It's not ridiculous. It just means we don't use nuclear weapons but we do safeguard jobs. The submarines do have other uses rather than just wiping out cities." Well here is a wake up call. The Vanguard and their successor Trident carrying submarines have just one solitary purpose: Ultimate destruction. And it is the fear by others of retaliation by using these hugely lethal machines that we preserve our safety. The clue is in the words 'Nuclear Deterrent'. So if Mr Corbyn will never hit the button why maintain the current subs let alone build new ones? And sorry but those jobs and the skills and engineering ability will just have to go and be lost forever. Seems to me those are two VERY good reasons why Mr Corbyn should never be let anywhere NEAR Downing Street. the man is a fool and a National Security liability! And the real stupidity is that HIS policy is not LABOUR policy. What an utter clutterfuck of a political party aspiring to govern ..... | |||

"Balk all you want at the mid-twenties student who approves of Corbyn, but you cannot deny that he has reinvigorated political debate in this country. " I'd say he's a source of comedy gold rather than reinvigorating debate. In the same way that Robin Williams wrote some of his best materials thanks to Bush! I mean the guy puts a vegan in charge of farming - even Yes Minister didn't think of that one! | |||

" Fabio, you strike me as one of the more rational people who doesn't see the point in nukes. In all seriousness, why do you suppose other countries have gone to extreme lengths to obtain / try to obtain them? (North Korea, Pakistan, Iran, Israel etc) I mean, if they were pointless, why would North Korea sooner starve 10% of its population to death than give them up? Genuinely interested in your opinion... " well if you think of the 5 countries that won't sign the NNPT (nuclear non-proliferation treaty) you named 4 of them... india and pakistan have never trusted each other...... same with iran and israel....... and we know north korea is a case where they don't trust anyone.... so its a race to a weapon no one will ever use..... which seems to make no sense | |||

"Scrapping Trident is a no win situation for him. His decision to agree to build the replacement but without the nuclear warheads keeps everyone happy. Another government can easily decide to retrofit the warheads anyway. And what happens when a Trident sub launches a ballistic missile armed with conventional warheads? It is automatically assumed the warheads are nuclear and the opposition immediately launch a retaliatory strike. 3 minutes later when the opposition realise the missiles were only conventional they can email the remains of Whitehall apologising for the mistake and we can all have a laugh about it. I don’t think so! " why would anyone think there would be a nuclear warhead on a missile if they have already been scrapped? | |||

"Balk all you want at the mid-twenties student who approves of Corbyn, but you cannot deny that he has reinvigorated political debate in this country. And as for Trident, there appears to be certain baby boomers and generation x'ers that think that nuclear disarmament is somehow dangerous, or indicative of weak will. But firstly, have you actually thought the Armageddon scenario through? In case of a massive attack on the United Kingdom, nuclear retaliation would do nothing to prevent our demise, merely make sure we have our revenge. And as for the deterrent argument, echoing Mr Corbyn's view, nuclear weapons have no place in the majority of conflicts taking place in the modern world. Isis, Al Qaeda, Al Shabab, Boko Haram, and god knows what other militant groups out there, are unaffected by these weapons." I think your second and third paragraphs hit the nail on the head. No developed nations will fire nuclear warheads. The current conflicts of the world are spread over large areas of land. There is no one target which could end terrorist and militant conflicts. | |||

If that's the case, I simply revert to the final paragraph of my first comment. The majority of the modern world's conflicts do not take the form of massive attacks launched by one nuclear state against the other. Besides that, no developed state in their right mind would consider launching a nuclear strike. Forget deterrents put in place by the target country, a country that launches a nuclear weapon in this day and age would effectively be blacklisted by the rest of the world, or at least, the large swathes of it in alliance with one another. | |||

"Is Jeremy Corbyn and the Labour Party for real! Looks like the Labour Manifesto right there! Return to secondary picketing. Keep trident subs but not their weapons. Do deal on Falklands. Understand Isis "strong points" Jeremy Corbyn is a delusional idiot and needs to go, he is making Labour look like an amateur political party! I won't vote Labour as long as he is leader." A lot of people seem to be picking up on the IS comment now. Which is fair enough. I just want to know though, how do we deal with IS? Because dropping bombs keeps them on the defence - but may provoke mass terror attacks across Europe, and it risks civilian lives and infrastructure. "Boots on the ground" would put a number of soldiers lives at risk, arguably be propaganda fodder for IS. Then of course there is the cost of post-traumatic stress disorder in soldiers or actual injuries. Or we can attempt to talk - heaven forbid we actually attempt to talk and in doing so it may actually put pressure on a terrorist group which is already suffering internally ddue to many who join suffering prejudice due to race, cultural group, nationality an gender. Admittedly there is always going to be a committed core who will not be swayed but you deal with them after when hopefully their cause weakens. Either method comes under attack, and all methods are not going to resolve the issue immediately. I'm just wondering, how would fab members deal with IS? | |||

"The nuclear deterrent is also known as the doomsday scenario If everyone has them, they know that using them will mean retaliation and with that an escalation resulting in all out geothermal nuclear war. Nobody wants to be responsible for that so nobody will use them. If one side unilaterally discarded their wmds, it would mean that the other side would be able to use theirs with impunity. This is why the SALT treaties between USA and USSR were so important in slowing down the arms race. In an ideal world there would be no need for a nuclear deterrent We don't live in an ideal world. " But we now have other multinational agreements such as NATO. If one nation attacked a hypothetically non-nuclear Britain, then surely, unless Britain was at fault other nations under NATO would retaliate? In an ideal world yes, I'd say keep them, it's an insurance policy just keep them safe. But we have a government cutting away at services that help our own people. If we can't affor to put more money into say, the NHS then we can't afford nuclear deterrents in my opinion. Not when we are in NATO and politically close to most Western European nations. | |||

"well the subs are the best part of 25 years old so they were going to have to be replaced anyway so whatever was going to replace it is going to be a large part of the cost of trident anyway.... no one on any side didn't say they would not have to be replaced... the debate was what they would be armed with.... i don't see the point of a nuclear weapon, because it would be a ballsy move for anyone to basically use one and say "well we are going to destroy the earth" so from a purely practical stance the non nuclear weapon is the more threthening as it is more likely to be used Fabio, you strike me as one of the more rational people who doesn't see the point in nukes. In all seriousness, why do you suppose other countries have gone to extreme lengths to obtain / try to obtain them? (North Korea, Pakistan, Iran, Israel etc) I mean, if they were pointless, why would North Korea sooner starve 10% of its population to death than give them up? Genuinely interested in your opinion... " . Because we keep invading everyone! Would be my answer. My answer to why we keep nuclear weapons would be, it keeps us at the big table and gives you a veto on any motion brought up!. The point being they don't save you from being attacked by irrational people who live next door.. (Look at Israel). But they do keep you from being attached by rational people (think US and Russia during Cuban crises). The trouble with nuclear weapons is not the people who currently have them but the maniacs who might get hold of them. And every year the knowledge of building them becomes easier and easier. In reality your stuck to withholding material to build them and that's pretty hard to do, so sometime within 20 years or so we're really going to have to sort out either the problems or the maniacs | |||

Tbo they are just ruthless thugs hiding behind religion to justify there cause, and these kind of people can't be reasoned with. In reality gaddaffi was right all along, take him out and there would be this uprising. Britain should have kept there noses out and never have interfered with Libya. That's my opinion anyway. | |||

"Is Jeremy Corbyn and the Labour Party for real! Looks like the Labour Manifesto right there! Return to secondary picketing. Keep trident subs but not their weapons. Do deal on Falklands. Understand Isis "strong points" Jeremy Corbyn is a delusional idiot and needs to go, he is making Labour look like an amateur political party! I won't vote Labour as long as he is leader. A lot of people seem to be picking up on the IS comment now. Which is fair enough. I just want to know though, how do we deal with IS? Because dropping bombs keeps them on the defence - but may provoke mass terror attacks across Europe, and it risks civilian lives and infrastructure. "Boots on the ground" would put a number of soldiers lives at risk, arguably be propaganda fodder for IS. Then of course there is the cost of post-traumatic stress disorder in soldiers or actual injuries. Or we can attempt to talk - heaven forbid we actually attempt to talk and in doing so it may actually put pressure on a terrorist group which is already suffering internally ddue to many who join suffering prejudice due to race, cultural group, nationality an gender. Admittedly there is always going to be a committed core who will not be swayed but you deal with them after when hopefully their cause weakens. Either method comes under attack, and all methods are not going to resolve the issue immediately. I'm just wondering, how would fab members deal with IS? . Kill everyone one of them, then kill their families.. I know your thinking that sounds harsh! But I'm a realist. They want you dead or converted to Islam... Take your pick! Kill their families...I'd say that is a tad extreme. I mean what if one individual commits to IS and the rest are simply supporting in order to avoid execution? I can understand your logic - ensure a plants roots are dead, but really? I don't think that line of though exercised through murder has any place now.. It it's a workable proven solution. Israel have used there policy to great effect with their jihadists, every suicide bomber has their entire family's houses knocked down and every benefit removed!. I would just take it one step further. Don't get me wrong if you'd have put me in charge 40 years ago, I'd have spent 10% of world GDP educating everyone in the world to a high standard. Would have solved most of the problems but not all!. Let's face some facts. Most of the 911 crazy fuckers were well educated well paid people, mostly doctors and engineers, you wouldn't stop them, they take every word of the Qur'an literally, hence the crazy shit, but you'd stop them having a big following I'd say extremism is down to personal or small group interpretation of the Quran. Not taking it word for word - if that were the case IS would have a greater impact here in the UK.

I'm giving you a workable one!. Personally you can go and hug them to death or submission... I'm just saying the evidence is against your solution. Here's a thought, have a long look at isis tactics.. like, beheadings, setting fire to non believers (like aid workers), sex slavery's, killing your mother, getting your five year old to excute people, genocide of non belivers... Then ask yourself where these ideas come from?. Then I would suggest you read the Qur'an or the bible for that matter!. | |||

"So correct me if I have misunderstood the principle here, but from what I can see is its a bit like:- mr corbyn - "I dont want our soldiers shooting people so we wont make any weapons" union leader - "but that will mean the people that make guns are out of work and they vote for you" mr corbyn - "OK we will carry on making the guns and issuing them but we wont give them any bullets" yes, I think thats about it, Pink Floyds Brain Damage lyrics spring to mind at this point. " Excellent reference! | |||

"The nuclear deterrent is also known as the doomsday scenario If everyone has them, they know that using them will mean retaliation and with that an escalation resulting in all out geothermal nuclear war. Nobody wants to be responsible for that so nobody will use them. If one side unilaterally discarded their wmds, it would mean that the other side would be able to use theirs with impunity. This is why the SALT treaties between USA and USSR were so important in slowing down the arms race. In an ideal world there would be no need for a nuclear deterrent We don't live in an ideal world. But we now have other multinational agreements such as NATO. If one nation attacked a hypothetically non-nuclear Britain, then surely, unless Britain was at fault other nations under NATO would retaliate? In an ideal world yes, I'd say keep them, it's an insurance policy just keep them safe. But we have a government cutting away at services that help our own people. If we can't affor to put more money into say, the NHS then we can't afford nuclear deterrents in my opinion. Not when we are in NATO and politically close to most Western European nations." Do you honestly want to leave defence of the realm in the hands of France and Italy? | |||

Also a few nukes in the hands of one nation, closely allied to a nation without any, is in my opinion a shared deterrent. | |||

That's exactly the reason why imposed killing their families!. It's not a belief in genocide, it's a practical solution, that's born out of proof, its worked in Israel/Palestine. I'm afraid to tell you but there's no easy solution to the problem, most of the rational solutions involve years and years of reformation of Islamic ideology, case in point the dark ages of Christianity. I just think we haven't got 200 years for Islam to come out the other side as a cOfe example. I mean let's face the problem, Christianity hadn't exactly got rid of all their nutjobs in 500 years, just look at mid west America... The question is do we have 500 years to spare with Islam.. Technology is evolving way faster than humans. My answer is, we don't and my solution is radical,I realise it's not far away from Hitler but there you have it! | |||

On negotiation yes if the other side had objectives that were rational which is obvious they don't. And as a reflection on Corbyn team strategy for talks it appears to be to surrender the UK's national interest as the first step of negotiation. Even a rookie poker player knows better. | |||

"Is Jeremy Corbyn and the Labour Party for real! Looks like the Labour Manifesto right there! Return to secondary picketing. Keep trident subs but not their weapons. Do deal on Falklands. Understand Isis "strong points" Jeremy Corbyn is a delusional idiot and needs to go, he is making Labour look like an amateur political party! I won't vote Labour as long as he is leader. A lot of people seem to be picking up on the IS comment now. Which is fair enough. I just want to know though, how do we deal with IS? Because dropping bombs keeps them on the defence - but may provoke mass terror attacks across Europe, and it risks civilian lives and infrastructure. "Boots on the ground" would put a number of soldiers lives at risk, arguably be propaganda fodder for IS. Then of course there is the cost of post-traumatic stress disorder in soldiers or actual injuries. Or we can attempt to talk - heaven forbid we actually attempt to talk and in doing so it may actually put pressure on a terrorist group which is already suffering internally ddue to many who join suffering prejudice due to race, cultural group, nationality an gender. Admittedly there is always going to be a committed core who will not be swayed but you deal with them after when hopefully their cause weakens. Either method comes under attack, and all methods are not going to resolve the issue immediately. I'm just wondering, how would fab members deal with IS? . Kill everyone one of them, then kill their families.. I know your thinking that sounds harsh! But I'm a realist. They want you dead or converted to Islam... Take your pick! Kill their families...I'd say that is a tad extreme. I mean what if one individual commits to IS and the rest are simply supporting in order to avoid execution? I can understand your logic - ensure a plants roots are dead, but really? I don't think that line of though exercised through murder has any place now.. It it's a workable proven solution. Israel have used there policy to great effect with their jihadists, every suicide bomber has their entire family's houses knocked down and every benefit removed!. I would just take it one step further. Don't get me wrong if you'd have put me in charge 40 years ago, I'd have spent 10% of world GDP educating everyone in the world to a high standard. Would have solved most of the problems but not all!. Let's face some facts. Most of the 911 crazy fuckers were well educated well paid people, mostly doctors and engineers, you wouldn't stop them, they take every word of the Qur'an literally, hence the crazy shit, but you'd stop them having a big following I'd say extremism is down to personal or small group interpretation of the Quran. Not taking it word for word - if that were the case IS would have a greater impact here in the UK. Also in addition Israel has come under flack from the international community for the human rights abuses they have committed. Even from America which is a statement. Your proposal - the execution of families based on one individuals belief and political affiliation is akin to the justifications of many genocides in the past.. You wanted a solution... I'm giving you a workable one!. Personally you can go and hug them to death or submission... I'm just saying the evidence is against your solution. Here's a thought, have a long look at isis tactics.. like, beheadings, setting fire to non believers (like aid workers), sex slavery's, killing your mother, getting your five year old to excute people, genocide of non belivers... Then ask yourself where these ideas come from?. Then I would suggest you read the Qur'an or the bible for that matter!. Answer honestly: Have you read either and understood? Or even just had someone from a non-biased background who has read both, explain them to you? I've attended enough seminars held by non-believers and believers of each faith to feel comfortable believing that fundamentalists manipulate words and interpretations to their own needs.. Yes I've read them both although I admit skipping various pages, most of it is incredibly boring!. I really don't know if you've read either but just try genesis or Deuteronomy.. Get to the bit where Moses wants to kill all the children and then deal out the spoils 61 donkeys 70 virgins.. I say virgins because mosses wants to kill every woman who's ever had sex... These are literally what he said.. You don't have to be a halfwit to interpret them badly! You just have to be a halfwit to think there relevant!. Like I said, go right ahead give peace your best shot, it's no skin of my nose, I just know you'll fail , because every bit of history and data says you'll fail. Most people would admit that in this day and age interpreting such sections as relevant would be poor interpretation of a text regardless. Look, what you are proposing would only fragment global society further. It would push anti-European and anti-Islamic groups futher. Do you really thank that you could attempt to successfully wipe out IS 100%, without another radical group springing up from individuals who would see it as western islamophobia or western imperialism?. That's exactly the reason why imposed killing their families!. It's not a belief in genocide, it's a practical solution, that's born out of proof, its worked in Israel/Palestine. I'm afraid to tell you but there's no easy solution to the problem, most of the rational solutions involve years and years of reformation of Islamic ideology, case in point the dark ages of Christianity. I just think we haven't got 200 years for Islam to come out the other side as a cOfe example. I mean let's face the problem, Christianity hadn't exactly got rid of all their nutjobs in 500 years, just look at mid west America... The question is do we have 500 years to spare with Islam.. Technology is evolving way faster than humans. My answer is, we don't and my solution is radical,I realise it's not far away from Hitler but there you have it!" You missed my point, even if you kill off their families, the idea is still there, the ideals are there, on paper, in books, websites, blogs...hard drives. IS is an idea, you can't kill it. Someone will inevitably find the ideals again. You can use negotiations to peacefully try to destabilise it from within, at the same time attempt to educate people that such radical beliefs are morally wrong and that there are alternatives. | |||

The idea that you can't kill an ideology is quite frankly nonsense. Take a look at communisim or maoisim or christanity or fascism.. We bombed, shot and financialised them out of their beliefs!. In reality it comes down to who has the best ideas or beliefs for most humans going forward. I'm not the greatest fan of democratic capitalism (ask around) but upto now it's the best system we've found.... And it certainly is better than theocracy of Islam or christanity | |||

"People say that nuclear weapons will never be used...well they already have been used (twice).would America have dropped the bombs if they thought Japan would strike back with the same...its food for thought,the Japanese military wanted no surrender. I wish the bloody things had never been invented,but they have and will never go away now.unfortunately " . Actually they were willing to surrendered they just weren't willing to give up the emperor (he was akin to Jesus under Japanese theology) which the Americans demanded,ie total surrender. Interestingly the technology of nuclear weapons was nearly entirely from ex German scientists who'd escaped the Nazis... They had to wait to defeat the Nazis to get the Nazi technology of rockets for delivering the nuclear warheads. The Japanese may have surrendered might not have, it's really irrelevant. They were completely and utterly out of fuel, the kamikaze flying had basically started because they didn't have fuel for return trips.. There'd cut down every single palm tree in Japan trying to make synthetic diesel... They were what's known as.. fucked Dropping those bombs was irrelevant, they had no fuel for ambulances or tanks or aircraft or bullets or anything.. Not many people know but the yanks had spent weeks fire bombing Tokyo and major cities killing about 3 times as many people as the two atom bombs killed... Japanese philosophy was we will fight on till death, every man woman and child with bayonets or rocks.. That's the grip theocracies have on their population! | |||

"Lost plot one. So some people are against Trident and others in favour. That is a fair argument and no doubt each side would stand their ground and argue their corner. Personally I would be in favour of it but would respect (although argue against) the views of people on the opposite side. Corbyn however seems to think that it is a good idea to keep the submarines (at a cost of untold billions) but disarm them and either keep them tied up in port or send them around the world on a what would be nothing more than a sightseeing jolly. Imagine the future scenario under a Corbyn government. First officer runs from the comm's room to the bridge "Captain we have a message from Downing St. It says the UK is under nuclear attack and we have to respond. "Do we have the launch codes No 1" says the captain. "yes sir, all correct" comes the reply. The captain thinks for a moment and calls the sub to action stations. He opens his secret orders and checks all the codes himself. "OK No 1 this is it" he says as his finger hovers over the red button. "Fire one" he shouts as he presses it. "Email gone" comes the reply from the comm's room as a few billion quids worth of kit sends the Kremlin (or whoever) a nasty letter. Lost plot two. He now thinks that the west should open negotiations with ISIS. IZAL. Darth. Dirch. Dodge or whatever their name is this week. To negotiate what exactly? Seeing as how their only reason to exist is to either destroy us or convert us to their medieval death cult, what do we put on the table? "We'll give you a million or two converts if you back off from blowing us up"? Or how about "we'll give you 10,000 infidels who you can crucify, behead, chuck of a building, Etc. if you promise no more machine gun attacks? Or maybe he wants to just give them Israel on a plate. Even though I fundamentally disagreed with him on almost everything, I thought at one time that Corbyn was a breath of fresh air compared to the usual stuffed suit career politicians. Now I realise that this guy is one serious nutter who has really lost the plot (if he ever had it) " He's a joke who has never lived in the real world - a dreamer and he's dangerous | |||
