. ''The willingness with which our young people are likely to serve in any war,no matter how justified,shall be directly proportional as to how they perceive the veterans of earlier wars were treated and appreciated by their nation'' --George Washington--

The sad thing is that they are not doing these things for their country. They are doing it for Bliar and Brown.
ReplyDeleteIraq never was any threat to this country.
Having said that, I admire these brave men and women, and do support them. But to be killed or injured for Bliar would be a waste of life.
I totally agree with you. Iraq was and is a big mistake, we were once arming Iraq and Saddam against the Iranians, its the Iranians that have profited from this War. At the beginning of the War wasn’t it something about WMD that we invaded, now they have moved the goalposts to establishing a democracy, I wonder when are they going to then overthrow Saudi Arabia? Zimbabwe? The invasion of Afghanistan was a more just cause as you could directly link the Taliban and Al Qaeda with that country, due to the folly in Iraq operations in Afghanistan are suffering and sadly the Taliban are gaining ground. I can tell you that the suaddies aren’t to happy either over there, but when you join the forces you cannot pick and choose which wars to fight in. They don’t like Labour like the rest of us, they are fighting to stay alive for each other, for their mates.
