Fair comment Frank, I believe that we should to an extent stand with the US on this, but tonight after watching some more 19 year old marines getting put in bags on TV I am going to remember those who you rightly said are in harms way. I hope you and your family are safe tonight - its 9pm here and I have to put my youngest baby, she's 6 months, to bed now. It sounds soft but I hope someone holds the mothers of the boys that died tonight.
Goodnight Friends
Simon

?? Defending their country from a liberating Army that is now acting as a peace keeping force? A year ago they were thanking the liberating forces and today they are shooting at them, ambushing them and trying everything they can to kill them. As I have said previously, how many of the Iraqi 'CIVILIANS' were holding a gun and shooting at the time they were killed or injured?
Once there is peace the democratic process will ba able to take place and everyone can get out of there...[/quote]
SB I do think one or two things ought to be put in perspective here.
Liberating army or invading army? Who was thanking the 'liberating' army? Fallujah has been a hotbed from day one. Democratic process? What, a puppet regime called The Iraqi Council? The Alliance will have to be there for years to back up the IC, as elections could never be held where 65% of the population want a union with Iran.
I support and sympathise with those soldiers, they are doing a splendid job but to be brutally honest if you were one of the local populace would you want an occupying force rebuilding a country into a way of life that is alien to your beliefs. I wouldn't. Iraq was (as it has turned out) not a threat to anyone, most of us could see this, but a few like Blair and Bush were too blinkered to let Blix finish a job he was succeeding in.
Where in Haiti it is OK to pay $25 for each Kalishnikov to be handed in, that is not the case in Iraq, this is an inbuilt hatred by SOME of the population.
I hope peace prevails and that a solution is found but whilst you have a Lone Star Texan shooting up the world someone somewhere is going to make a lot of enemies. I will always remember Bush's words standing on the rubble in New York post 9/11 'you are either for us or agin' us' if that is diplomacy you can kiss my butt.
The latter is brought home by simply typing into a Google search engine NUKE FRANCE and I tell you some of these people are serious!! I love the American people, I despise the current Administration, if George W Bush is re-elected for another 4 years God help the rest of us.

Well put our Sticky
Aint seen many lads walking round my locality toting RPG's and AK47's.
Or beating an already dead civvy lorry driver with a tyre pump. So brave arent they! Gutless bas*ards that they are.
The 21 first century is going to be different they said. Got that Fu*king right!
I'm just glad my Warring was done back in the 70's and 80's. because the media are one pain in the ar*e nowadays.
Cambridge bloke I could not care less what you have seen and done. you would have been paid a ruck to clean up. As it's easy money.

cambridgebloke, go ahead post one of my 'disgusting posts' I would stand beside anything I have said as long as I got the facts correct. Ain't no point in a one sided arguement, I didn't tell you to shut up I asked if you would kindly shut up.
If a man has nothing he is willing to die for then he isn't fit to live.
On a second note as well.
If my country was occupied I would fight the occupying army.
And if you didn't I would call you a traitor.
The Geneva convention while obsolete in many area's does have some good strong points about such conflicts. 1st of all you don't shoot at the enemy from a mob because this will just bring death to innocents, no matter what you don't abuse somebody like what happened to them contractors. In my eyes those people are sick and don't deserve to live.
Then you hear about them taking people hostage, what is that? it is definatly not the actions of an army thats terrorist activity. Which is bulls**t. The tactics they use bring more suffering to Iraq and will not lead to liberation, they just lead to a hard crackdown.
