What is really mind blowing is the acceptance of "allegations" as facts by politicians and the press.....that is truly scary

Not strictly true! It was only put out as true by the BLIAR types who want an excuse to put our jackboot into Syria - the rest saw through it..........hence the reason they voted against it.
The press were ramping up a case for war in the weeks preceding the vote, they didn't even accept the result stating on more than one occasion that this was the first time since the end of WW2 that we'd failed to support the US........they appear to have forgotten about Vietnam.
The MP's listened to public opinion.......they say we're war weary, so presumably its our fault.
