Out of Iraq
There is now an opportunity for this disgraceful government to extricate itself from the shameful Iraq escapade.
All along it has been said that we, the government, will listen to the forces on the ground. Well surely this is now the time for Brown to listen to Sir Jock Stirrup, the actual Head of the Armed Forces, and to announce that the job has been done. We can do no more.
We can then complete our retreat and send the soldiers to Afghanistan where they will fight and die in another war which has absolutely nothing to do with Britain.
Our soldiers signed up to fight, and possibly die, for their Queen and Country, after all it is an oath of allegiance to the Queen which they take, not to American Presidents, nor the UN, nor NATO.
How many soldiers have died in Iraq since the turn of the year. How many died each week whilst Blair was PM. Every week he came to Parliament regretting the loss of yet another life. Now with Brown what has changed. That's right we now talk and act with the very people who killed our soldiers. It was always going to be the case that we would have to leave, well thanks to Sir Jock now is the time.
At least one returning soldier has spoken at Stop the War meetings and he has now been silenced by MoD Court injunctions, let's see how they can silence Sir Jock Stirrup. Will they ignore him as well?
