The British did not show "restraint" in the Falklands. Argentina never attacked the British Isles. Hezbollah has strafed and rocketed Israeli cities and Israel is determined to do everything in its power to repel that aggression. I'm sure Prime Minister Olmert did not detain Blair with a history lesson on what the British did in the 1930s when their army resorted to drastic measures to crush Arab terrorism in Palestine - measures Israel has not even begun to employ to deal with a far greater threat. So to sum things up, its time the UK got off its moral high horse. Israel is doing exactly what any other nation would do faced with the same set of circumstances.

(Go Israel, Go! Slap 'Em, Down Hezbullies. )

The British did not kill any civilians during the Falkland's war. That conflict is incomparible to the situation in the middle east...

Remember the 'Irgun'and the 'Stern Gang' negociating with Hitler for weapons and explosives in 1940 to carry out terrorist attacks in England . We recently passed the 50th aniversary of the bombing by the Stern Gang of the King David Hotel killing 91 people.

You ain't whiter than white by any stretch of the imagination.

But then I would admit who is!! would you ?

I will tell you this much about the 'Falklands 'there was no precision guided missiles from 30,000 feet .British Paratroopers fighting Argentinian Marines with feet, fists, knees, teeth and blades for 5 hours eyeball to eyeball.As the Paras surviving second in command said a bloody brutal business ...but then we have had plenty of experience at that.
