Congratulations to your fine young soldiers on a job well done!

Not only did the Frogs sell Argentina the Exocet Anti-ship missile, they sold the Iraqi's the Coronet anti-tank missile. I heard a couple of M-1A's were hit in the radiator.
Good Hunting!

Please tell your friends that I was totally impressed with the British forces i have seen on Fox News! It makes me feel so proud to have you all helping us with this horrible mess.
Fox has really covered the British troops well, and your wonderful nation should be very proud of the work your boys are doing!

...and the score was 14-nil... Bravo Brits!

Actually, RUSSIA sold the KORONET missile to the Iraqis. Methinks it was what the Russians call nalyevo--on the black market.

Good Show!

This was what we call a ‘meeting engagement’ because the two forces just ran into each other. There's a meetin' here tonight, there's a meetin' here tonight.
I can tell by your friendly face, there's a meetin' here tonight.

Also, when you have a chance! Please tell them that while I had doubts about Blair during our horrible suffering during the Clinton administration, I am now quite impressed with him.
He is eloquent, unlike our beloved, but plain-spoken Bush, and makes the point with clarity and distinction.

"The encounter was over in a matter of minutes. All 14 Iraqi tanks were destroyed, and all 14 British, each with a four-man crew, escaped unscathed."
Even if the equipment was reversed, I'd still take the Brits any day and twice on Sunday! Nice job, fellas!

Thanx for the Monty pic...

God bless 'em all, well, except Robin Cook, he's a ponce. He's a malevolent garden gnome. Pass it on.

great
Why are the Iraqis using T-55 Russian tanks?
The liberals keep telling me that our troops would most likley be kiiled by U.S. made weapons.
All I see on the news are AK 47s, russian Tanks, Russin mines.
And the hidden Iraq airforce is all made up of Chinese Migs and French Mirages.
Wher are the US Made M-16's, F16s and Abrham Tanks we supposedly supplied Saddam?????
