Fire Storm vs NATO

By Nelson

Thanks to Dave for this one.

NATO??? Did you say NATO??? Call me an ambulance, I’ve split my sides!!! NATO couldn’t defend my kid’s tree house without internal squabbles about whose troops will & won’t be put in harm’s way.
Once the objectives have been agreed the politicians should shut up & leave it to the military to deliver. To do otherwise is to tie the hands of the troops on the ground - and it’s difficult using an assault rifle in that situation.
Fire Storm, Chelmsford

That ambulance joke is BRILLIANT and really lends weight to the argument that follows.

    Well, don’t just stand there! Call him an ambulance!

    Oh, you’re too busy? OK, I’ll do it (jeez, we Yanks have to do EVERYthing!):

    Firestorm, you’re an ambulance.

    Well I have concluded “Firestorm” is not Mike Reid. Because a) He’s dead (Mike Read I mean not firestorm, although he maybe) and b) Mike Reid always used to say “There goes another rib”. I’m unsure as to his stance on NATO though
