That's not trashing the Brits, it's just a question about why it's NOW a problem, when it wasn't one back in WWII. No bad names, no accusations, no aspersions on the writer of the article. I'd just like to know why it's a problem now. The question deserves an answer.

Do you think an article in the New York Times speaks for all of the United States. Trash the article, the source, but not the UK.

Because the Brits are all a bunch of soft socialists now and they were men then.
