Afghanistan and Moral Equivalence
May I suggest that if you wish to question my moral equivalence, then you really ought to ask the relatives of Mr de Menezes, or maybe those who knew Dr David kelly.
As for what our soldiers have done in Iraq, well that's ok then is it. You ask the relatives of those people who our soldiers beat-up. Also the relatives of the people who our soldiers 'detained' who were then handed over to be tortured and then killed. Don't even ask for where is my eveidence because you only have to look and there is plenty out there.
I am afriad it is not me, it is those who continue to support our soldiers no matter how much evidence there has been which would lead any sane, rational individual to come to the conclusion that we actually have very little to be proud of in Iraq/Afghanistan.
Look at the pictures of Prince Harry at the computer calling in an air strike, look at the deaths resulting from 'Drone' attacks, where war is no different to a computer game. Prince Harry even wore the cap with the declared aim of 'we do bad things to bad people' and this from a Prince of the realm who wore a Nazi uniform.
Just how simple are some people in this country. It is time to wake up.
In the meantime the insurgents in Afghanistan/Pakistan block a pass in the Khyber region which results in a stock pile of equipment in Pakistan and then they go and blow up all the equipment whilst in storage. I mean these people are not stupid, they have defeated more invading armies than many have had hot dinners. Time to retreat and get out, we have been defeated again. Or there will be no victory, there never was even the slightest cahnce. And where is bin Laden, he will see out Geotge Bush, and what will Obama do, continue the battle.
