bbc 3 at 9 o'clock---- MUST WATCH

[bored_Welsh_lad]

If you insist.........  Not really a war is it, more of an occupation in the face of a faceless enemy, if enemy is even the right word for it, in order to secure valuable resources that are not ours to take (though Im not for one second blaming the soldiers for that nor trying to demean their work!!!).

Please tell me what these "valuable resources" you speak of are...I would like to know how many Int friends you have who can tell you whats going on out there, along side all the stuff that we as soldiers/airmen/sailors have actually seen out there.. so please.. enlighten me to what this conflict is actually about..

after watching the first few minutes of that i have come to the same conclusion I had when I first heard of the war... its bollox and we dont need to be there.

well, in the words of my friend, "We either do the job over there or do it on the streets of England."

Since being dragged there by the Americans, we are now faced with doing it on the streets of England. The London bombings were a example of this.
