Watched a documentary on the incident last night on Forces TV. Total fabricated nonsense. SAS made out like they were the heroes despite doing nada.
Was all the heroic work of the Germans GSG 9.
What is it with these jokers trying to claim glory as some kind of world beaters. Shoot a few kebab shop workers in the Embassy building and live off the back of it ever since.

Special forces of all nations are just a big ego trip.
In the scheme of things the impact they make is minimal, but people of all nations like to hear that their guys are the best in the world.
Boosts the old national pride.

This particular mission was embarrassing for them to try and claim anything though.
The SAS like to have all this mysterious garbage behind them like some kind of built up phantom yet on the same hand claim glory at any opportunity.

Nah..... not the apes. Everyone knows that it was James Bond.
Bravo two zero. Foiled by a teenager walking a herd of cows, absolute amateurs.
I'm sure that the young man could have been silenced if so wished. What were their rules of engagement?
Some of you need a history lesson. The SAS carried out a raid in the key middle East during WW2 and destroyed a whole fleet of German fighter planes with the loss of 3 SAS troops.
Was absolutely key at the time.

The SAS have a significant impact, what concerns me is the media need to sensationalise every activity and politicians desire to gain reflected glory instead of keeping it all low key.I do believe their most successful operations will have been very discreet.
The SAS have a significant impact,
Iraq. Yep sorted that one
Afghan ,,,that one too
Syria. Well I'm sure that one will be boxed off in the next couple of weeks and peace shall reign throughout the land.
