Zulu, I only hope you never lose someone close to you and have to understand the meaning of an angry outburst. I don't think there's much capital to be gained from attacking the recently bereaved.
And don't talk to us about history. We've had much more of it than you.
If he came out with that comment in front of me or my mates or any serving or ex serving he would well dont want to be reported for abuse but what a comment.
I think that comment will pi** of every Brit freeper
"And don't talk to us about history. We've had much more of it than you."
Our history STARTED with yours - remember? That makes "your" history, "our" history too. Besides I bet I know about "your" history than you do.
And yes, I can understand the grief of a bereaved relative, but that grief is better served by attacking the cause of the dead relative. I'm sick and tired of people, especially Europeans who should know better, knocking the U.S. and our President.
The U.S. can always pull out of the Middle East, withdraw behind the oceans, pull up our borders, kick out all the Muslims here, and watch the Islamic nuts blow Europe to pieces and sweep over it even further than they did in the 700's and later under the Ottomans. Sometimes I wonder why we even bother.
And there are over 1,000 dead Americans in Iraq, so I guess we know about grief too. But I don't think anyone here would even dream of blaming Tony Blair for it.
