    Seem's as though the world seem's to want rid of these types of people, isn't it time that the same sort of thing happened to Sepp Blatter as in my eyes he is a tyrant aswell.

    hmmm.....


    Thing is Sambo.....Blatter has racism. Where as dictators of the ilk you mention have copious amounts of oil and gas reserves.

    He probably has - in exchange for gifting the world cup to Qatar!

    He is oily.

    But the fact remains. He might take bungs of cash but he isn't worth stacks of the stuff.

    And for that reason... the civilised counties of the free world aren't interested in removing him from power by the use of extreme and indiscriminate force.

    TC - I believe Libya demonstrates that the west doesnt need extreme or indiscriminate force; just the right sympathisers in the right places at the right time...

    Libya is a completely different case indeed, although I disagree your sympathisers point I do agree that extreme force is no longer required. Although when america had the money extreme force was profitable for those waging the wars...

    It has all the hallmarks of the first time another countries media, social media, has been used against it by another country.

    I remember thinking at the time that it was odd Hague was getting into all sorts of bother trying to meet the 'liberators' ...and yet the america seems strangely unconcerned as to who these people were.

    Do a google search for "persona management software" ... or take a look at this actual project spec:

    That soft of stuff is becoming so run of the mill in the US that they actually posted it on the publicly viewable fedbizopps website...


    I'm liking this little cartoon too:http://www.piratesandemperors.com and press play

    War is not profitable for any government. It is only good for owners of weapons industries, and private companies dealing with natural resources. For the government it is an echonomical pitfall. Taxpayers get the final bill, either in raised taxes or a decline in public services.
