Telegraph: Reports on the role of the UK in Mali, " Britain is to provide military aircraft to transport foreign troops to Mali amid a new push against Islamist forces in the country. ".
Lets Get Real:
Folks I thought the Coalition Government had stated that before the UK got involved in another War that the House of Commons would debate the topic. Thus this is the first that this blog has head that RAF planes will be used as transport planes, that makes the UK and the planes a target. Thus far this blog has not heard that there will be a debate in the House, let hope Mali does not turn out to be another Vietnam, Iraq or Afghanistan, finishing one war but then getting dragged by the French in to another conflict, this blog is far from happy about these developments.
