Human Rights World Cup - my arse!

I'm pleased to see Balan, that my unstinting support for the Jewish State of Israel has not gone un-noticed, and your government has instructed it's world renowned intelligence agency, and the IDF, to assist my football team in handing out one hell of a beating to the Mad Mullah's of Tehran's boys.

The Yanks under sleepy Joe Biden have got a bit sniffy about Israel lately, so any further assistance on Friday would be much appreciated. Thanking you in anticipation.

There's a very worrying undercurrent going on in Middle East geopolitics sinkov. The Saudis are beheading "offenders" with swords. The Qataris are behaving just like what they are, medieval backward Arabs. The Iranian government are cracking down on non-burka wearing females with what are ostensibly death sentences and the US government and FIFA carry on regardless with appeasement and acquiescence.

Our very own Toxic party just want to take the Arab's oil money and say nowt.

Even I'm starting to worry about Israel.

Worry not about Israel mon ami, as they have proved on numerous occasions, they are perfectly capable of looking after themselves.

As for the 'undercurrents' in that region, what you describe above looks very much like just another day in the Middle East office to me.

How very true, sinkov, in fact, things are changing at a far greater pace in the 'Western' world than they ever will in the Middle East. I will add that the last people to worry about in that ae ate the Israelis because they will always do what is necesssary for their nation's security.

"........ that ae ate the Israelis......." should have read 'that case are the Israelis...........'
