What did we do to deserve our political class?

As I've written before, Einstein told us that the definition of insanity is to keep doing the same things over and over and expect different results. The Westminster pigsty is in the process of repeating the same imbecility it has perpetrated over Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya and engage in a fruitless campaign of bombing that will produce the opposite of what these geniuses intend. The British Prime Minister is indeed a very stupid man, ignoring the advice of all the experts, including the top military, in his ego driven pursuit of glory and his desire to kill people. A genuinely worthy successor to Mad Tony. This week I have listened to the head of the British army, and the past head of the army telling  us that a bombing campaign will be worse than useless. The two most prominent commentators of Middle Eastern affairs, Patrick Cockburn and Robert Fisk have both supported this assessment, and the House Of Commons Select Committee on Foreign Affairs confirmed it as well, but Ca-moron is blithely proceeding as if they are all on his side, and the warmongering politicos in Westminster cannot wait to bomb Syria back to the dark ages for no discernible purpose other than the fact that this is how they get their thrill.

The really frightening aspect of British politics is the complete absence of any rationality, instead we are bombarded with emotional propaganda that bears little resemblance to reality. To listen to the Westminster sewer we are faced with the greatest problem in history, the biggest ever threat to our way of life and our 'values', bigger than Hitler, than global warming, than the financial crisis etc. indeed Isis has replaced the EU as our greatest threat in the fevered imagination of the Tory brain  and that takes some doing. It is getting beyond ridiculous. You see rationality has no place in a discussion that is purely ideological, and the Tories will never allow facts to penetrate their world view, because in the Tory universe Russia and Assad are actually a far bigger threat to them than Isis will ever be and they would rather see Isis prosper and continue than admit that perhaps Russia and Assad are the lesser of two evils. They really are that stupid and ideologically blinkered. As you all know I have no truck with Labour, but in this instance Jeremy Corbyn is providing far more insight than all of the other neoliberal gangsters put together, including the right-wing gang within his own party. We are preparing to embark on a course of action that is genuinely perilous as it is a knee jerk reaction to make the Tory government look good in the eyes of the Americans, that is the motivation and it has nothing to do with national security and the interests of the British public. You have been warned
