Very stupid move by Islam4UK, there are plenty of anti-War marches attended by people of all races & faiths. By arranging their own one it just perpetuates a "them against us" feeling. Perhaps that's what they want.
I'm against the War(s) but I have maximum respect for soldiers and the job they do. My cousin has been to both Afghanistan and Iraq; he says he is against the war as are many of the soldiers but they are professionals and they just get on with their job. It is not a soldier's job to decide which wars are just/unjust, once he signs up he goes wherever he is told to and these idiots at Islam4UK should be marching on Parliament instead. |

Dont know punter, dont see what point you're trying to make either fair enough, so what point where you trying to make, when you said the PM can't spell the dead soldier's name right when he wrote a heartfelt letter to the mother? |

hearts i must admit though it as got slightly easier this past 2 weeks , its only when you hear of another fatality that it hits home , i am not just jumping on the bandwagon now my lads over there, iam 52 yrs old nearly and was always brought up to respect wrong and right and did the same with my kids as my parents did with me , but i have always respected our armed forces, even as a young lad i would go with my dad to the november cenotaph to pay my respects and still do so to this day top respect to anyone who puts their live on the line i cant praise em enough
|

By:
just read about this on the news, blood boiling job, I really dont thnk it will happen as you would have a load of people turning up against it to say the least.
Pox hope your lad returns safely, my prayers are with him. |
|
By:
pox your laddie will be totally chilled out over there,he will be treated like a equal (in a active role he will get respect).
everyone mucks in in times off adversity and when he comes home you will see a big change in him,he will be a man because of the experiences being on active duty has shown him. 2 years from now he will have a stripe on his arm and will be bawling out rookies B-) |
|
By:
cheers prepared much appreciated

|
By:
hope so hearts like i said previously if the tallys dont get him me or my missus will get the little fooker hes put us through hell, but thats just parental selfishness it wouldnt be normal if we werent like that
|
|
By:
like you say hearts and we know ourselves he is probably better off than we know and its us doing the worrying, we know hes been trained for this and this is what he wanted but its only natural for us to worry you know the score as much as anyone
