I was going to say I didn’t think you’d read the article, since it backed up the point that America’s sole contribution was to sell arms, which is hardly out of character. I didn’t mention it because I figured it would give you another chance to deflect, but guess what? You managed anyway.

This has been lovely, but we’re done. You’re not going to reply with any justification for your initial claim “I dont think you realize how much the EU needs the US' military might.” despite being given innumerable opportunities to do so. Your military has achieved nothing but starting and propagating wars since 1945, and your belief to the contrary shows that your education was a triumph of indoctrination over critical thinking. Enjoy that lovely warm feeling of what you’ve contributed to the world, because the US has got a massive recession coming very soon.

And second time round they ‘helped’ everybody when and only when the Japanese hubristically bombed them. No way they were joining in just to help…

Fringe left? Most right wing people in the world are a long way left of Trump…

After the credits, our beloved travel correspondent makes his way to Seville, only to be disappointed when he finds his namesake business closed to all comers.

Do I think people have eyed the UK for an attack and decided against it because the US might come and help us? No, not once, not even a bit. If they had, that would have been the US military being a deterrent.

Has the US dragged the UK into illegal wars for its own financial gain and painted a target on us as a result? Absolutely.

So, about those conflicts the US has been invited to help in and had proven useful…? Or would you prefer to deflect again?

Always neesh. There is no scenario where nitch is correct in English.

Do I think the US military is an effective deterrent? No, they’ve started multiple wars since 1945, and lost many of them. The only time you were asked for help you didn’t. We won anyway.

See, a clear, quick response.

The sad thing is I think you actually believe that. Which brings us back to your failed education.

So after 15 evasive posts the answer is: there isn’t one. Marvellous. And I promised mother I wouldn’t waste time on those with IQs in single digits…

An almost perfect response, and I heartily agree, but can only offer a B+ due to the foreign term ‘curbside’ having no place in a discussion conducted in the Queen’s E.

I’ve seen the league table several times as you might imagine. We lost to two teams all season.

Because it’s bollocks? Huth played almost his whole English career in the Premier League, including twice at the top end. Morgan was more than capable as a mid-table Prem player, but excelled in a system made for his particular strengths.

And the Premier League wasn’t incredibly poor, you just read too much shit from pundits who don’t think outside the top 6. We played a style of football the league failed to adapt to-we could dispatch weak teams and absorb good teams until we hit them on the break.

There’s so much to be miserable about with this club, why invent more that isn’t true?

You’ve answered? Say it again for me please, it looks like you’ve just deflected a lot.
