The comments on Tuesday by Major General Chris Ghika, the top UK military officer in the US-led coalition against Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, were widely seen as a sign of divergence between the threat assessments of the UK and the US on Iran. 4/

EXCLUSIVE: UK has raised threat level for UK forces + diplomats in Iraq - in line with the US - because of what sources say is a heightened security risk from Iran

WHY

Saw two military helicopters overhead before in Manchester. Probably unrelated?

This place has been taken over by fucking morons.

US [to UK]: Tell you what, sir. From now on, we are going to raise the threat level due to Iran. Let's just practice a bit, hmm? When I say,"There is a heightened risk from Iran," you'll say, "yes there is!"
UK: Check.
US: There is a heightened risk from Iran.
UK: (stares blankly)
US: Remember now, you need to raise the threat level due to Iran.
UK: I gotcha.
US: There is a heightened risk from Iran.
UK: (stares blankly)
(A long time later)
Agent: (sighs in frustration) Now, when I say, "There is a heightened risk from Iran," and press down on your foot, you say that there is.
UK: No problem.
US: There is a heightened risk from Iran! (stomps on UK's foot a few times)
UK: (stares blankly; to Iraqi in room) I think he's talking to you.

^^^ Stop thinking. You're not very good at it ^^^
