   It’s a courtesy call that happens roughly every two years. Galloway is a moron!

   The difference here is we invited the Dutch Soldier to Cork whereas Your Army came uninvited to Cork and burned the place.#interferingBrits

      He’s a muppet but flag waving Brit he is not.

   What neutrality?

   I think the issue is that there’s a foreign soldier holding a gun, not the fact that there’s a sub. I wonder if he got off the sub carrying the gun, could it be against the law?

      I have no doubt that it would be, but in that photo, he is still on board the submarine, technically.

      That was a bit blunt.

         I see what you did there

         (intentional?)

    George Galloway is a rotten antisemite. See his interchange with David Baddiel recently.
    It’s shocking how much abuse people get just for being Jewish.

       Stop blaming yourself for the holocaust.

    I went on a French warship when I was in the Cubs. Was I violating Irish neutrality at age 11?
