I practiced Aikido for several years, whilst in the RM, and found it helped dealing with aggressive personnel without doing to much injury to them. This should be the aim of martial art defence without injuring the attacker. Not everones idea though. Aikido seemed to me to be useful in ‘peacekeeping...

Bit slow in replying as I'm out of the office and away from the PC most of the time. I see what the Israelis are doing now in occupying, after destroying the towns and villages of Southern Lebanon, is ethnic cleansing but our western controlled media doesn't report it as such... Same tactics as the ...

Article on PTSD
I found this when I was trawling the web and thought it just about sums up some of the problems. Written by a Marc Levy and is not the complete article which can be found at http://www.counterpunch.org/levy07242006.html. Titled A Primer on the Whys and Wherefores of PTSD Whatever You Did in War Will...

One other thing that gets up my nose is that the Israeli military and some of their politicians talk exactly like the Nazis did about the Jews in Europe during WWII. I have heard and listened to Arabs talking about Israelis and how they hate them but they do not consider them sub-human. When you deh...

A comment on the current situation that I posted elsewhere... One other question for our glorious PM Tony Blair- If indeed Israel is solely engaged in merely “defending itself” how come there is no Navy rescue mission of Brits from Tel Aviv or Haifa? As for intervention troops forget it .... Why sho...

ColoursFed, this forum happens to have some of the most highly trained people on this earth. That training involved the ability to dish out a great deal of physical violence. When you threaten one of our members and ring him at home you put your self at real risk of being visisted at some time in th...

In the very dangerous and changing world where nukes are being developed by third world nations I would like to believe that if they ever threaten us or use one and incinerate my family that get back what they gave. F*ck the law and niceties I'm all for revenge when it comes to my family. In this as...

Pasha, Ref: ' *name edited by Admin* mentions the Britannia Club in Singapore situated next to the famous Raffles Hotel. What was the place like, i.e. a posh affair, or a dive with a fight every night?' The 'Brit' club was where mostly everyone (military) went on a Friday and Saturday night, who was...

Bigdog, if your arabic is good and you have the aptitude and want some overseas travel try something different and go for MI6. They are gagging for good recruits just now. If you do have a 'go' don't be put off by the general lack of common 'dog' (common sense) and lack of morals that most of them s...

Personally I think it comes down to whether you think we are the 'good' guys and have the high moral ground, in the fight aginst terror. The place has been a public relation disaster for the US and the West. The perceived use of torture, humilation of prisoners and possible inhuman treatment without...

Harry, got to agree with you that the Russian designed weapons seem to have better tolarances under field conditions. I did fire the PPSH once (practice shooting only) and though it was only .32 calibre the amount of fire that can be brought to bare on a target, at close range, was impressive. I fir...
