    A 3000 round trip and they didn't even bring any pasta!!!

    FFS, we send some Tornado's on a 3000 mile round trip to bomb **** all and they don't even bring us back some pasta!

    Menelaus, it's about time you had a word.

    On a serious note, how much did that little jaunt cost and who the **** is going to foot the bill?
    (I think I guessed the answer to the last part of the question.)



    Why didn't we leave the Tornado's in Cyprus or Gibraltar for a later mission?

    I'm sure the cost will be deducted from Libya's stolen frozen assets.

    BTW, is there a catchy name for this 'coalition'? We've had the 'coalition of the willing' in the past so have they opted for a new moniker this time round?

      Tricky one. The French will insist upon being included so we will somehow have to get "cheese-eating surrender monkeys" in there.

        Ah, Sarkozy.

        Definitely not engaged in this 'conflict' due to personal political reasons.

          FUKUS?
          Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

                    Well that's the right place to find some pasta.
