""Yesterday, the former First Sea Lord, Admiral Sir Alan West, said British rules of engagement were very much de-escalatory, because we dont want wars starting
" The Europeans have gone sissy, even the once proud Brits. "De-escalatory"? "Don't want wars starting"? Note to Admiral West, you are already in a war. Not fighting back after you're already in a war is an act of cowardice, no matter how many words like "de-escalatory" you may invent.

Hey First High Lord mucky muck - one of our guys would have yelled: "I have not yet begun to de-escalate."

"Don't want wars starting"? Note to Admiral West, you are already in a war.This is like something out of Alice in Wonderland... Admirals who refuse to acknowledge they're in a war, even while their men (and a woman) are under direct attack from the enemy...
