as a regular reader of Uncut can i just say it's incredibly strange to see them devote so much print to GnR/Axl - even tho it's really about Brian May.
Uncut is particularly snobbish when it comes to the pop/classic rock of GnR's ilk.
Mojo is far better btw, the best music publication.

i fucking loved hearing the new songs from the shitty RIR boots & HoB

remember listening to them in school with my mate & he says to me, "axl's still got it" cuase maddy & the blues (especially the blues - the blues '01 was the best version of that song by a million miles) & the title track (with the original 'if your ass were your head you could tell' line)

i would completely geek out if they played even one new song @ RiR '11

fuck me.
the object is to protect civilians; create space for the opposition to topple gaddafi & form a provisional govenment leading to a democratically elected government. the mere fact that Benhgazi has been saved thus far is evidence of the legitimate & true aim of this intervention.


& ftr, lybia produces LESS than 2% of the worlds oil - LESS than the UK.

#3148 Re: The Garden » Allied Forces act over Libya » 813 weeks ago

i just think it's strange that it's only NOW Americans are tired of their tax dollars being wasted on the security of national foreigners, when those people are actually asking for their help. when there was a time not to long ago the exact same people were gung-ho over invading a country, without just cause, where they weren't asked.


i guess it's just easier for you to see thru to the real reasons for intervention (oil) now you've already lived thru one lie.

i believe the British & french should intervene in Bahrain as well. obv they won't because it's not as advantageous to them. but the priority is obviously civilian casualities.  if you can't see that it's because you have a lack of trust in your political leaders, which is understandable.

i LOVE how the americans are saying it's about Oil when it was only a few years ago the rest of the world were saying that 'no, american intervention in Iraq isn't justified, it's merely to shore up their oil supply (& a personal vendetta).' yet when there is actual justification the americans suddenly think intervention is a bad idea. the hypocrisy of the american people & state over libya & gaddafi would be laughable if it wasn't so disgusting & evil.


Whoa down there! This isn't a US action, it is a European action with the US having an ancillary role that is limited in scope and duration.
It is Europe that gets about 85% of Libyan oil while the US buys about 3% of Libyan exports.

whoa yourself. that was exactly my point. try reading & understanding what i said first.
there is NO strategic gain for the US to be involved here, which is why they are reluctant. the only reason for the US to get involved is a HUMANITARIAN one, which is obviously an insufficient excuse for them intervene.

this Libyan intervention is about humanitarian intervention - which imo is the ONLY JUSTIFIABLE REASON for conducting military action.

my point was the shocking and evil hypocrisy of the American state & it's people in their initial refusal & reluctance to get involved in helping people who were asking for help, who have been asking for help since Feburary when their own government start killing their civilians.
& then to dismiss this humanitarian crisis as a European coup for Oil is the most extremely distasteful hypocrisy of recent times considering the American WAR/intervention in Iraq was completely ILLEGITIMATE & solely based on Iraq's oil reserves & a personal vendetta, when the rest of the world was against US involvement in Iraq. WMD's anyone?? yea right. But suddendly when an African warlord (and not in the good sense) STARTS a civil war against peaceful protesters you can't intervene?! WTF?!?!

Gaddafyi's troops are STILL killing innocent people.

if anything it's in America's interests to let Gaddafyi kill as many people as he can.. which is actually what the Pentagon & a lot of Americans (& others) want..


edit & on that bolded point - of all the submarines firing missiles, how many of them are British? ONE. the rest are all American!
