Though they want to get in on
that "drone-action" it appears that any pending action against our latest batch of "new just like Hitlers" may contain
less poodle-like behavior:
Britain has rebuffed US pleas to use military bases in the UK to support the build-up of forces in the Gulf, citing secret legal advice which states that any pre-emptive strike on Iran could be in breach of international law.
Well obviously a few well-placed Romney insults and they'll be on board again, right?
"The UK would be in breach of international law if it facilitated what amounted to a pre-emptive strike on Iran," said a senior Whitehall source. "It is explicit. The government has been using this to push back against the Americans."
How dare they use the law, I mean really. American's know that
Iranians want to be bombed!

It worked so well in the Bush years.
