Also of course that improves their standing with the arms suppliers.<br /><br />Our procurement system is a disgrace. Mind you, once troops start leaving in a few years (because many are exhausted and know they can get a better paid job outside) then it will be more evident that our hardware supplies aren't fit for purpose.subrosahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00151702590329788260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8116690042850060767.post-88716867789828079542009-11-12T00:44:59.999+00:002009-11-12T00:44:59.999+00:00I'll bet that rang hollow CD, it would with me...I'll bet that rang hollow CD, it would with me too.<br /><br />Auch CD you know they'll stop at nothing to dilute our confidence.

Thats why since then our armed forces have been sent into harms way numerous times.<br /><br />The problem is inertia: they haven't yet grasped that things have changed: the enemy have adapted where we haven't. The technological superiority we had fighting against Iraqi conventional forces doesn't work against insurgents.<br /><br />Our helicopter fleet is a real indication of this inertia: 20 years after the Iron Curtain was parted and 18 years after the first gulf war when our battlefield changed immensely, we are still flying aircraft designed to operate in a cold war temperate climate, unable to operate in the hot and high conditions of Afghanistan.Mark The Skint Sailorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04892877003107509621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8116690042850060767.post-65517817206820403132009-11-11T17:17:23.208+00:002009-11-11T17:17:23.208+00:00SR,

Bringing democracy to Afghanistan while we have dodgy elections ourselves or cede power to a corrupt EU is sheer hypocrisy.<br />Our generals tow the party line until they leave their posts and then they get out the knives and say it's unwinnable. Our troops contuinually join up to fight in the middle east despite all the reports of poor equipment, support, food, accommodation etc. These stories of poor equipment etc aren't new but go back to Gulf War 1 and even longer if you read accounts of the Boer War and Waterloo etc.<br />So nothing will ever change.<br />Our generals will go on saying we just need a few more troops, one final push and victory will be ours. <br />There will be a never ending supply of cannon fodder to fill our cemeteries. Cold in their graves at 21 with a bit of metal to show for their heroic efforts. And the people behind the scenes will make their deals and try and spin out ever more wars to make ever more money.<br />The locals in far off lands will get carpet bombed for trying to defend their homes.<br />And we will continue to vote Liberal, Labour or Conservative and flock to our parades.guinnesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03438687178956852595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8116690042850060767.post-49499606509002928472009-11-11T13:01:57.982+00:002009-11-11T13:01:57.982+00:00Some have learned war means business means financi...Some have learned war means business means financial gain Spook.subrosahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00151702590329788260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8116690042850060767.post-36701748861097404392009-11-11T12:18:43.390+00:002009-11-11T12:18:43.390+00:0091 years on and what have we learnt?
