British troops killed since the start of operations in Afghanistan has reached 201. RIP
With proud thanksgiving, a mother for her children,
Britain mourns for her dead across the sea.
Flesh of her flesh they were, spirit of her spirit,
Fallen in the cause of the free.
Going a bit pear shaped over there isn't it? The Army has been betrayed, their loyalty and trust misused by the current government. A campaign like the Falklands is fair enough, we are defending our own turf, but Afghanistan? Sating the bloodlust of butchers in power. And the butchers are in charge over here.
ReplyDeleteI hope the MPs on hoiday get rained on for the next few weeks. It's no comparison of what the dead went through, but it's a start.
I would prefere them to be struck by lightening !!!!
