The verdict is in

I suppose if we are to listen to this illustrious British general? Then we may as well just throw in the towel and begin making plans to build mosques all over America and the UK.

Just roll over and pray that they allow us to continue to live.

What an utter waste of air this supposed general is. But par for the course with our ever weakened, frightened and egalitarian controlled allies.

The new head of Britain's armed forces, Gen Sir David Richards, has warned that the West cannot defeat al-Qaeda and militant Islam.

He said defeating Islamist militancy was "unnecessary and would never be achieved".

However, he argued that it could be "contained" to allow Britons to lead secure lives.

Gen Richards, 58, said the threat posed by "al-Qaeda and its affiliates" meant Britain's national security would be at risk for at least 30 years.

 Well there you have it and from a British general no less. Defeating the enemy is unnecessary and can never be achieved if we are to listen to this military genius.

Any wonder why the British have had their asses kicked every where they have been engaged in battle on this planet for the past seventy years?

One thing is for sure, we won't be there to save their asses this go round.
