In another 10 years our military will be unrecognisable because the best will be happily ensconced in civilian jobs with a salary they could only dream of when they were military personnel.subrosahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00151702590329788260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8116690042850060767.post-54138590618433408092011-05-25T08:49:34.448+01:002011-05-25T08:49:34.448+01:00petem130,spot on.

The Arab spring is not a reality as yet and time will tell if it ever will be.<br /><br />Soldiers know the dangers when they sign up and the greatest danger is being killed. The worst scenario is being killed carrying out an action required of politicians who at best are poorly informed and at worst ignorant of the truth of it or willfully acting in a way which they deem to improve their standing and mention in history.<br /><br />As with all things we, the voters, sit quietly by and watch it all unfold. We pay for it. We condone it by our inaction and in our mitigation we cite our democratic right being inadequate.<br /><br />Doing nothing is our worst guilt and shame.petem130https://www.blogger.com/profile/15948128258971700269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8116690042850060767.post-26533740876005547982011-05-24T22:39:10.059+01:002011-05-24T22:39:10.059+01:00I know Afghanistan was Labour's stupid, stupid...I know Afghanistan was Labour's stupid, stupid war Niko but Cameron could have taken the bull by the horns and changed our presence there.
