Pilch Posted November 4, 2004 Report Share Posted November 4, 2004 My thoughts go to the families that lost loe ones in this war, but people who think that the war was wrong are wrong themselves. These people will have much better lives at the end and the lads and ladies out there are doing a great job at trying to help the iraqi's. It is just the few that dont seem to want our help causing the problems.....I honestly think that the american's should take lesson on how to approach people, they seem to be making then enemies with their approach where as we try to make friends out there...

Guest be@vis Posted November 4, 2004 Report Share Posted November 4, 2004 "Falklands was right"The Falkland Islands are a long way outside British Territorial waters and I don't recall that many mass graves were found when they were "Liberated". I think everybodys sympathies and condolences go out to the bereaved families but it's not an event that should be politicised . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think everybodys sympathies and condolences go out to the bereaved families but it's not an event that should be politicised .Rightly or wrongly the people of the Falklands are British citizens and their allegiances are to these islands.From whom were they 'liberated'? - do you mean the Argentinian invaders?

Guest be@vis Posted November 4, 2004 Report Share Posted November 4, 2004 It would be difficult to reply to Hurdy's post without making some political reference, which I don't wish to do, so I shall content myself by saying yes I do mean the Argentines.

Tankus Posted November 4, 2004 Report Share Posted November 4, 2004 There is an underlying reason for our country to retain them ....The continental shelf has got some very big oil and coal reserves ...and possibly gas ..Just sitting there ...Curious ....there are some parallels ...But it is under UK sovereignty .... and if we have any sense ...It should remain so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir T Fireball Posted November 4, 2004 Report Share Posted November 4, 2004 Let's hear some more about them mass graves :D How do the numbers compare to those the coalition have murdered, both as a result of the illegal invasion and the inhumane sanctions prior to it.
