[QUOTE]Originally posted by Wraith: [QB] Ah, but Lee, that wasn't real terrorism. Real terrorism began on 9/11 when God's nation was attacked by the evil Islamo-facists and the weak willed Liberal European media types that simply fail to understand this are traitors, pure and simple. VOTE REPUBLICAN, WAR IS PEACE, BUSH IS SMART. Seriously, Islamic terrorism is a serious threat but the monumental cock-ups made by the US government in particular in dealing with it since 9/11 are almost unbelievable. Almost everything, from the rhetoric of senior Republicans to the half-arsed, ideaologically driven Iraq invasion plan that bore almost no resemblance to the likely military situation to the fact that anyone who disagrees with the 'Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld is always right and have made no mistakes' line is automatically smeared by Republicans as being 'unpatriotic' at the very least. The manifest and disgusting failure of senior government officials in the US to take reponsibility is amazing. And not in a good way. And then we have our own Dear Leader, who appears to do everything Dubya tells him to (even down to replacing our Foreign Secretary) without considering the consequences for this country in general and our armed forces in particular. Our forces are still having to make cuts to pay for operations which are being carried out with an absolute minimum of equipment. Not to mention that much of the equipment that we do have is knackered. If we're going to do these things, at least give the forces the money and equipment to do so properly instead of concentrating on cheap political ploys like a mass pardon of deserters from teh Great War on the strength of a few (and not that many) having been 'shell shocked' and a monumentally outdated view of the British Army's performance in that war as being one of 'lions led by donkeys'. And you don't even want to get me started on the farce that is MoD procurement. I'll calm down now. [/QB][/QUOTE]
